Elijah

ELIJAH

AND I LOOKED FOR THE LORD
WALKING THE HIGH RIDGE BUFFETED BY STORM
WATCHING THE AVALANCHE COME CRASHING DOWN
AND CRIED
WHERE ARE YOU LORD
BUT HEARD ONLY THE WIND

I STOOD BEFORE A WATERFALL
AND WATCHED THE MAGNIFICENT PLUNGE OF WATER
DEAFENED BY ITS ROAR
AND CRIED
WHERE ARE YOU LORD

THE WOODS CAUGHT FIRE THE FLAME RAGED FIERCE
THE HEAT BROKE ROCKS
RELENTLESS WAS THE FLAME
IT COULD NOT BE CONTAINED
AND I CRIED
WHERE ARE YOU GOD

THEN ONE FALL DAY
BY A LITTLE BROOK
WITH BUT THE SUN TO WARM ME
A BIT OF A BREEZE SPUN SOME LEAVES
AND SAID
HERE
