When I'm Losing Color

Show me that bright green field—
The one with the miracle
And the children smiling for joy
With the purpose of a greater beauty to witness.

Oh, how we long for the time to be swift,
But not too swift in the wind,
Because we don't want to be swept away
Before the infinite draws near.

Soul, tell me you remember—
Tell me the tale of lights and beyond,
Where it was so bright
That every expression was reflected glory.

Oh, the confidence of that promise!
When all the world moved together
With endless lines and endless hope
And all that wasn’t understood became awe.

Friend, this is it, this is it—
This is all I've ever needed,
Because beyond all the voices that startle me
Is that one foundation that holds me.

  2. Shalom Jared,
    I'm going to give my take on this one.

    What is the bright green field that is connected to a miracle with children smiling for joy--that would have a purpose of yielding a greater beauty?--It must be the new world that YHWH will create by a miracle for all the smiling children of earth....but this can only be viewed now through faith in His word. (the evidence of things not seen).

    Even so come Lord Yahshua (Jesus)
    He will come in the fullness of time
    When He has prepared His bride
    And then He will appear in His glory

    This is the recounting of Paradise
    the story of how things was in the beginning
    when the earth was filled with His glory
    Worn on every expression of nature.
