Like a Seed...

Like a seed in the cold, frozen
ground.
Like a winter tree reaching to the
sky.

So desolate, so lonely, so empty, no
sound.
Oh, the sorrow, the pain, the suffering,
why?

You come like a whisper, a warming of
earth.
The buds burst forth, a dawning, a new
start.

A break in the ground ,dare I look, dare I
search?
Leaves so tender, trust in Your warmth, or die
apart?

The warmth, Your warmth! Oh, Your infinite
love!
How could you care so much to Forgive me my
sin?

Like a flower full bloom, I was reaching
above.
All the years searching and I find You
within...
