Home.

Cross the dark unfamiliar heavens, to run my hands through dark familiar hair.
Cross the ever changing oceans, to see that ever constant stare.
Encase all my own earthly belongings, leave all I've ever loved and known.
To embrace the one for whom I'm longing,to be abroad but finally home.

The Tabernacle

Blue red and deepest sunset purple,
Framed in linen clouds.
The sky the tabernacle.
God's simplest shroud.

Purple red and turquoise blue.
White linen for their temple.
An offering from man to you.
For a home a covenant a curtain.

Beaten blue, purple and peirced to run red.
Your offering for man.
The king of kings with a crown of scars on his head.
And a nailed scepter through his hand.

Blue Red and purple curtain torn.
A new covenant born.
A new temple and throne.
A home of hearts for the spirit alone.
