The Kindgom Foretasted

The Kingdom Foretasted

Please wait briefly while audio loads.

When the little child is clear-eyed
and dancing free within;
and pain has taught the soul enough wisdom
to care for the child;
and the heart yields naturally to love's
subtle touches
and opens so deeply
that eyes look liquid,
like little lakes of life—
then the spirit flows out to taste everything
for the celebrative Kingdom has come.
Then the Bridegroom's eyes
smile out of all things upon His bride
and his voice speaks
in a thousand ways,
"Go forth now, my beautiful bride,
and bear your overflowing cup
unto my love-thirsty miracle of a world.”
