You Were There From The Beginning

You were, there from the beginning

Watching over the orphan with no home

No mother or father emotionally available;

Loving, but not available

Caring, but not available

They could do no better

They were damaged as well.

You were there from the beginning.

Their religion spoke words about You, revealed You

One can know who you are, but not yet You

Looking back You were there from the beginning

Always in the heart even if absent from the head

The wrong way never made sense

Even in the midst of the journey

Even in the midst of the transgression

That was You working in secret

Then one day You came face to face

Not a new birth, but a reconnection

To the Source that has been there

From the beginning.
