Here in the midst
Of Starbucks pop music
I hear the words
Beautifully broken
Not your typical token
Dance tune
Tapping the keyboard
Words of praise
Thoughts of power
His
Over all
Lives in us
Nothing is impossible
Belief
In every vein
In my blood pumping
Each lung fills
With
Air in here
A zip
A zam
Starbucks &
God
Are not separate
For His power
Rises
In places
Faint with saints
Tenderly tainted
Beautifully broken
Is me and you
It’s Jesus followers
And those who wander
It’s writers and fighters
It’s the just and
Those who must
Like Peter, deny Him
Let us look and listen
Stop, drop and roll
With diversity
In its universal
Existence
Thank you, Jesus
Who was and is
And will come on the clouds
We know not where He will land
Giving snippets of the sands
Of time
To His children
Veiled and shroud
Thank you, Jesus
Please give all
Ears to hear
Your beautifully broken vessels
Who bear
The burden
Of
Bringing
Singing
Signing
Rhyming
Painting
Praying
Saying
All glory is Yours …
The Only Good News
Pointing to You, Jesus,
Who saves
Makes us brave
Forgives
Helps us love
again and again
Accepts
The least
As the best
Who promises
Forever
No final death
But eternal life
To all who claim no other
But You,
Jesus, Our Lord and Savior
