DOMUS FIDEI


With my eyes closed
my mind still
heads bowed and hands akimbo
In the mist of your blessings
I stretch forth my heart to thee
On a chariot of humility 
To you my spirit soars
towards Eternal epiphany 

In my darkest hour
When I lay in stasis
My weary heart
And dripping eyes 
Tell a tale
A song of lamentation
And I turn away 
from your light 
You babtize me with
An oil of salvation
I feel your spirit
dance upon my soul
And I know thou at with me
In tune, my body shivers
in the cool embrace
of your loving kindness

In my loneliness,
you send an emissary of heaven
to commune with me. 
Her tender words and kindness
Comforts and crowns me
with an halo of enlightenment
When My lips are perched in hunger and thirst
From your bossom's compassion 
You cause milk and honey to flow
On land and high mountain
to feed me full

When I am Lost
In the darkness 
Of worldly lust
And desire's transgression
your eyes of mercy finds me
With a hand full of grace
you guide me back to life
And set me on an high plain
Now i can see
Above the crowd
I can see
Above the cloud
Yes! I see
the wonder of your works
With my cracked cup of joy
I sip from the fountain of praise
To you, kindred spirit
I lift up my voice
To write this ode in gratitude 
Of your Everlasting love
