Friendly Emptiness by Raymond A. Foss

Space to call their own
within the sacred place
within the open doors,
within the state of grace
Our hearts waiting,
knowing only in part
the pain, the struggle the story
within their beating heart
A process, a journey
we each make on this earth
leading to heaven and glory
if we heed the savior’s call
But a choice we are given
no one must follow a single command
We offer our witness, our hand
and leave the rest to each one
to choose whom to follow
the world or the lamb
