An Indomitable Grace

Souls Awaken

An Indomitable Grace

Rays of light,
Soft, yet glorious
Little bits of dust floating
But the day never ends
There is always light,
Always life
Just as eyes awaken
With the morning hours
So do souls awaken with the dawn
And in this place of perpetual light
Souls never cease to become alive.

    This reminds me of that ancient prayer we pray at the funeral vigil for the deceased. It”s a call and response: “Eternal rest grant unto him/her, O Lord”
    “and let the perpetual light shine upon him/her.”

      I’d never heard that prayer before. Thanks.
