intercession

i look at you and feel your need -
... i wish that you were free. i wish you had Peace when your world caves in,
i wish your eyes could see. i long to see your face light up from knowing why you live.
i long for you to touch True Love and feel the warmth it gives.
every day, i try to speak the Truth over the lies. i smile and greet.
i look you in the eyes. how can i speak of Rescue, how do i show you patient Grace,
how can i love you where you need it most but keep my own path straight?
i'm just getting ready for class today, but your name is on my tongue.
i ache these prayers, fight this fight, that your world might be undone.
that you might know the taste of Joy, that you could hear His voice
that you might find like you've been found...that you would make this choice.
