The Horizon

by Dan Blankenship


Lost as child

A latchkey youth

Barely awake

Never inspired

Truly ignorant in much

But little by little

Truth came over the horizon

And with it, understanding

And this wayward soul

This child in the wilderness

Began to see hope

And a love beyond measure

And the Creator of this love

The child became found

Gently touched by a Redeemer

The One who awakens all

To the vastness of the universe

And the greatness of His creation

This King of Kings

This Lord of Lords

Has led this child to a narrow path

And now this child longs to follow

For he holds a new key

One that glorifies the King

And now that he is awake

And truly inspired

He moves to cast off ignorance

And show Truth to others

As they watch the horizon
