When I was grieving God grieved with me When I was screaming God screamed to me
Birds perched by, quaking, on branch or limb Hearkened not to my aching, but sang for Him Unknowing avians cried their crooning grief Shook earth and sky, swayed twig and leaf Sweet mournful tune upon somber wind Clouds shrouding moon drew aside for Him Breathless, hushed, and trembling, I arose in Speechless rush as halcyon stars hung frozen Revelation did opine, and thus impart to me Wisdom's peace divine; I, tho apart from thee Stood in presence of love, and henceforth knew Luminescence held above, that which I held for you
When I was crying God cried with me When I was dying God died for me
