Early Commune

 Early Commune

"Give me a reason," you say.

"Why should I take the time;

get up from my warm bed of sleep

when the early hours chime?"

I need all the rest I can get.

The day ahead is long.

If I'm not alert and on point

I could do something very wrong!"

The he said, "Am I not your strength

and pure wisdom from above?

Can I not give you power

for the hard tasks you speak of?

Come to me in the early morn

when all's quiet and at rest.

I'll set your mind; ordain your steps.

So, you'll be at your very best.

Should the times of trial come

my strength is there to hold you.

For you've taken the time ahead;

with me you chose to commune."
