Embrace

The child comes, in the dark night
  to a people awaiting, an embrace
In a promise so old, it is almost
  forgotten, it whispers into
The cracks of the doors, around
  those seeking for it to come
Awaited by those who need to
  feel worthy, broken free from
The chains of being beaten down
  by the world, by those they loved.
This is deeper and more open, there
  is no expectation which meets you
Except to know you are purely worthy,
  with all the scars and hidden things
You keep close because others wouldn't
  understand and only condemn.
This is why the angels showed up on
  the dark night to a band of thugs
Who thought they were forgotten and
  tossed off by the world, yet remembered
 

Please support this ministry. Thank you.
