Thorough Joy

from Hilo by Brother Joshua

lyrics

Peals of thunder, mystery; a creation, violent, formed
A child dead and gone; awakened as a storm
Unrelenting majesty in a fury sounds its horn
A light for the forlorn, a path to be reborn

Sight and sound have left their mark
But there’s much that we don’t know
We’ve ate but we’re not full
We’re tired and un-consoled
Light is crashing into dark, it’s out of our control
And the blindness in our souls, heal and make it whole

A broken heart, untethered, shouts an utterance in ire
The sins of its desire
A truth as real as fire
A voice that softly severs pounds in answer to the crier
With words shaper than iron
That could shake the world entire

A creature formed in darkness
Hurls itself into the light
A beauty born of strife, the miracle of life
A mother’s gentle likeness
From her arms, has taken flight
To feel the sting of night
To live beyond her sight
