We, The Angels

There are some things seen in darkness
More clearly than in the Light.
It's your pain of separateness from God
That shows you things aren't right.
It's anguish that makes you want to learn.
It's heartache that makes you grow.
It's uncertainty and bitterness
That make you doubt all you would know.

We, the Angels know your grief.
We've felt it all the same.
We too once shunned Divinity
While lost in the profane
Until we came to see the light
And in it we saw too
That those who are the Love of God
Are all of us and you.

So, embrace the dark; be not afraid.
We, the Angels gather near
To celebrate all that you are
And your triumph through your fear.
Take heart, for in the shadowed depth
If you but reach above,
We, the Angels are waiting here
To enfold you in God's Love.

Dear Ones, we've loved you as our own
Since your journey first began.
Each time you've cried in despair, "I cant!"
We've answered, "Yes, you can."
You cannot fail to find God's Love,
We know this in our hearts.
We've cheered and nudged and guided you
Through all your stops and starts.

We, the Angels are now the ones
Who feel most deeply blessed;
When you give to yourself your gifts of grace
You give unto the rest.
You are Divine, forget this not
When you feel the darkness grow
For We, the Angels of Living Light
Love you more than you'll ever know.
