REVIVAL

Bright rainbow! God's own symbol
Of everlasting love
Presents a perfect circle
When seen from high above.

But one must climb beyond the haze
To see the colors so,
For just a partial circuit
Appears to those below.

The human misconception
Accepts the broken arc,
Resigned to earth's obscureness,
Accustomed to the dark.

Yet hope can penetrate through clouds
And faith reveal the plan
Of Love's encircling goodness
For His beloved man.
