Do I experien...Canticle of Simeon Third Millennium<br /><br />Do I experience your fears<br />As I lay awake at night<br />And feel the rumbling of the earth<br />Jolted underneath<br /><br />Of atoms cracked awide.<br />Do I express your restless<br />Control of all you know<br />In dreams that stir my peace<br />And wonder that things are such.<br /><br />We await the Savior.<br /><br />Do I, as I prophesy that ‘all is well’,<br />Ignore the captured fears inside<br />Of man and woman<br />For the child to be.<br /><br />A hand atop a womb to sooth<br />The pain and the coming, anticipated joy,<br />The ultimate plan of peace.<br />Now this servant beholds<br /><br />A pierced heart<br />And beyond to birth that<br />Renews the universe.<br />I stand recreated<br /><br />Before me is the salvation.<br />I can rest—my eyes have seen<br />The coming light of nations<br />Your Word fulfilled<br /><br />Stirs in Mary’s womb<br />The glory of your people!<br />1998Association of Pauline Cooperatorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620313417187716937noreply@blogger.com
