All the Wonders

betharichardson

The Longest Night Has Passed

The dawn is breaking after the longest night

And my heart lightens, too

With hope, with peace,

With the knowledge that

To you, "The night is as bright as the day,"

For darkness is as light to you" (Psalm 139).


Light the corners of grief,

The alleyways of terror,

The dark places of hatred.


Soften up the hardened systems of injustice,

The marble halls of power, blind to need.


Send justice and peace

To our troubled world.

Send comfort and healing

To our hurting hearts.

This day, tomorrow, always.
