The Breath of God

The Breath of God
I felt the breath of God todayHe passed me on the trailI quickly turned to see His facebut I was doomed to fail
“No man can look and live…” it’s said“…upon the face of God”I felt His breeze upon my facebut did not think it odd
The Spirit comes; the Spirit goesand no man knows His pathWe cannot know where He will goand do not dare His wrath
God’s spirit walks the earth each dayseeking poor souls in needHe gently knocks upon the doorto bring them hope, indeed
But many fail to hear the soundof tapping on their doorsThe world’s distractions glitter brightIts hungry voice implores
Yes, He is there both day and nightin hope, in faith, in loveTo bring them joy, to bring them peaceas gentle as a dove
