That light shines at all
means God's here.
That good is ever done
means He's present.
That love is still shared
means He's around.
Besides lights in the sky,
front porch lights more than
welcome folks back home, they
show we're not alone.
And when we look behind
a flashlight lighting the way,
we see His hand holding it tight.
His absence would leave
us
in the dark.
Besides helping old folks
safely across busy streets,
who else would remind us to
pray for the sick?
And when we sense someone
needs a hug or a listening ear,
it's His presence that does it.
His absence would leave
us
in the bad.
Besides His word in the Bible,
how is it our hearts find a way
to tell our enemies we love them
just like He does?
And when sacrifice is needed,
even and ever unconditionally,
we know He did it for us before.
His absence would leave
us
in the hate.
Truth be told, basic fact
His absence would mean
now we really are all alone.
Psalm 36:9
