When God Calls Me Out Of The Dark

Anthony Hanible

God gathers me from the edges

Where my spirit frays

His voice a low thunder

Calling me back into myself

He lays calm across my chest

Like cool water over embers

And the wildness inside me

Finally exhales

Through valleys where shadows

Learn my name

God walks as a burning hush 

A presence that turns fear

Into smoke

His goodness trails me

Like a soft footed guardian

His mercy folds itself

Into every step I take

And I move forward

Heart steady

Toward the house of God

Where my soul

Is never a stranger
