I sit in stillness in this silent, dark room
Lit only by candles and the soft glow from the moon
I sit before Jesus, drawn in by his gaze
My heart is filled with a silent song of praise
I can hear my heartbeat: it beats for you
How my spirit aches to be united to you
The stars above- a hundred billion tiny lights
Comfort me even on the longest of nights
In your arms you lead me through a heavenly dance
You chose me to be a part of this sacred romance
Together we glide across the celestial dance floor
I am dancing with the one whom I most adore
I am taken by a love so profound I am shaken
And when I turned away, I was not forsaken
I sit with you and watch my worries disappear
You open my eyes, and it all becomes clear
All I need, all I want, is to be right where you are
I need you so close: please be never far
I am here just to burn in your presence
To bear witness to you in life's little moments
Just once, I want to spend an evening
With my Lord, just being and receiving
Not talking, but listening not rushing, but waiting
Being filled with courage and confidence, not hesitating
I sit here and surrender my heart for you gave me your own
Spending an evening with Jesus is like nothing I have ever known
It brings me in my weakness, down upon my knees
But there is strength and peace and the whisper of a breeze
The feeling of this fleeting moment
My soul holds now and forever
A memory so powerfully potent
To strengthen it in spiritual endeavor

When evening comes and evil rouse
When howls and shrieks of terror without
The Day is here and within we're ready
Assured dark shall pass and into light
We'll walk when the doors are opened
But the fight's the despair and fear
From sights and sounds of evil's triumph
It's cruel rampages and idolatrous boasts
But that Day comes in the dark of dusk
The Sun's hid that dark destroys dark
And a pleasant land refreshed revealed
And our eyes behold only beauty and light

In twilight,
In one another's arm
a gentle embrace,
we whisper secrets to the fading light,
the sky blushes soft,
as if sunlight day kissed starry night goodbye.

Good Evening, Let's chat
How about we go and
have ourselves a night cap,
The day was hectic,
Yeah, I'll drink to that.

I'm just glad it's over and
the weekend is here,
We toast our drinks and
we both give a cheer.

This week was a rough one,
If you only knew,
Just so glad that we pushed and
made it on through

It felt like this weekend
would never arrive,
The week did moved
slowly but, yet we Survived,

Let's not fuss and grumble,
okay my dear friend,
Let's get this thing started and
enjoy this weekend

The evening comes with

colours, birds, sounds, reflecting --


everything to me.

sunset bleeds out the day
depleted
thoughts take charge and toy with me
