In Their Eyes
What a joy it is to serve the Lord.
It is so much easier to do His will,
than to serve ourselves and sin.
Upon the dry, parched, cracking
ground of our humanity, you send the
soothing rain of compassion.
What mercy we find, in the mercy returned.
Giving away all that we are,
all that we have in you.
How sweet, in emptiness and hunger,
is the fruit from just one seed.
Sowed without concern for our return.
In our hopeless situation is where
we see God's reality. What a gift to
see return, the light you have let us shine
In the light, in their eyes,
In the spirit, in their lives.
I found what I lost
even though I tried.
It was right where I had left it,
when I shared your love in their lives.
You restored the joy in my life
of serving you.
P. J Campise
