Sabbath
Sun, stars, earth, and heavens on high
Flying, swimming, crawling creatures on earth and in ocean’s tide
Prepared the crowning Glory of all creation to then abide
The last simply good day of eternity passed by
A Breath of Life that left all else gasping for sky
Life that was given was laid down for one to confide
A prophetic price gladly paid for a bride at his side
Blessing of God as the three became I
Next morning broke to God’s greatest delight
As innocence, beauty, and untaught praise bursted forth as an offering
The first day that could be understood, felt, and brought longing to sing
The Father of all creation, paused in all of His Might
The Creator, audaciously and humbly rested in all creations sight
Even before what tasted rebellion would sting
He showed what living from Rest would bring
The freshest of bones and strongest of hearts still were not ready for their birthright
The first lesson taught was a lesson to Be
A Holy day, from where we can only Truly see
