Prepare

Your hearts, your minds, your soul prepare.
For God's kingdom is drawing nigh.
We may not see it, we may not hear,
But it comes near in a babe whom we love,
In the soft caress of our dearest ones,
In the invisible gifts of eternity which
Can't be seen or taken away.
So prepare your heart to know, our mind
To perceive, your eyes to see, your hands
To touch, your faith to begin to glimpse
Through the dark glass the pieces of forever.
