                                       "It Is That"











                                         It is, when on the weakest of nights,

                                       It’s that, which tells me to bravely fight.
                                       It is when I worked hard for disappoints,
                                     It’s that, which comforts me, my every joint.






                                           It was when I doubted that truth,
                                            Still, it was that acted as proof.
                                          It was when I knelt in desperation,
                                     There it dawned and brought reconciliation.






                                            Not once, not twice, but thrice,
                                               It healed my broken cries.

                                            And as I asked for a little more,
                                       It willingly answered and cured my sore.





                                                I say, “It’s that, it’s that!”

                                      Without a clue, not knowing “what’s that.”
                                           It is the love so out of this earth.
                                      It is that, the very beauty of Christ’s love.
