the rooster

perhaps the rooster will soon sound the coming of the day
the day when the denial will be gone
the day when the church decides to follow
the day when the church decide to lead
the day when the church choose to be
the love that comes from Me

perhaps the rooster will soon sound the dawn
when the rock will be washed away
gone with all the insecurities of the man
leaving only My love written in the sand
the dawn when the bride can see
the truth the stone once entombed

perhaps the rooster will soon sound the morning
after the betrayal of the one we love
remembering once more I gave you the power
to love like never before
to forgive like no one has ever seen
to endure the suffering of lifetimes

perhaps the rooster has already spoken
and you are still asleep
waiting for someone to save you
from the darkness that you keep
from the separation that you build
from the fear of what I see

perhaps the rooster has already spoken
and your shame has been forgiven
the mistake has been forgotten
and now, your choice to repent begins
the path of love and acceptance of all
to rebirth a life
that does not deny My way
always means surrender

perhaps the rooster has already spoken
and the night returns
and the battle is at hand
when they ask again, and again, and again
can you give a different answer
that does not deny the way, the truth and the life
never means war

perhaps the rooster has gone away
its done its job and we missed the day
lost in your need to be secure
you lost the Lord you claim to love
your minds may never receive
the truth I shared
through all the excuses and designs of man

perhaps the rooster has gone home
to wait for another people, another day
for your love cannot yet be seen
in the darkness of hate
your decisions create
behind the eyes of other fearful men

perhaps the rooster is dead
and a new one is to come
for a people in the wilderness
those reborn without a book to follow
just living in a land of promise
that love is the way, the truth and the life
is no longer denied
this is the home where I will return

peace & harmony,
