“I, THIRST”

Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might
be fulfilled, said: I thirst." [John

Come
quickly my Beloved,
Set direction
to my wavering step
Let
Your loving Eyes Light the way
Let
my heart sink into Thy merciful depths
For
these arrows of life pierce a soldier’s chest
Lest
I confess, my river has run dry
In
this search for Love, a heart’s only quest
Thy
Undying Love ….
Which
exceeds the East and runs far past the West
And
no less, amidst my own self-created mess
I count myself unworthy but still blessed
I count myself unworthy but still blessed
For
Wisdom sayest, “What Love is not put to the test?”
O’
how I long for thy Touch again
Whose
Sight brings Life to my night
Whose
Air fills this corpse still longing for heaven’s breath
Whose
Love transcends even death
For Thou
art my security! Prepare me an eagles nest!
Harken
heareth an eagle speak, “Let us all pause to reflect…”
Are we
not all like Saul?
Who
art guilty of murdering grace in our souls?
But
where sin would do her worst
Your
grace didst repair
O’
my Beloved thy Face is fair
And how
we all long for that lone reward
Of
Love’s Eternal stare
For
in the arteries of Your Sacred Heart
Run
rivers of endless reparation
And
those same Lips which clung to Our Mother and nursed
Art
the same still speaking truth unto men
A
Heart raging full of passion for sinner’s
And
alas did burst…
A
Love that speaks to us with hopes to win our trust
A
magma of Love forever penetrating self’s crust
And
with blessing removed sin’s curse
For
even when we are at our lowest, we knowest
That
if we remain in silence long enough
We
can still hear those Blessed Lips pronounce, “I, THIRST”
"The
woman saith to him: Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst,
nor come hither to draw."
[John 4:15]
