Trembling and glowing,
I am transformed
Into the daughter of the King.
The Father’s heart embracing me;
Radical devotion sparks;
The daughter in me cries,
“Daddy!” in helplessness.
I will follow this love,
The One which never will forsake.
The Bridegroom yet I see,
At the table, my presence awaits.
Quaking, love embraces me
And I fall apart,
Into the arms of the One
I long to trust.
Overcoming fear has brought me here,
To my true love,
My heart’s embrace.
The Father’s protection now I know,
It endures age on age.
This poem is reflective of my baptism in the Holy Spirit.
