Tears
(Caught in the rain one night. At first I was angry about it, but then stopped to listen and felt an echo of the gospel in those droplets)

Heavenly tears on angry brow,
Whispering truth
through the deafening silence.
Tells me something new,
a tale of love,
a word that speaks a thousand pictures,
silences a thousand chattering mouths,
forgives a thousand souls.
He calls the dead to life
and melts the coldest of hearts.
Behold from the glacier comes a trickle,
in turn becomes a stream,
in my heart, a spring of living water.
