Welcome to the ULC Minister's Network

Tammie, Rev Wonder

There is a moment

  • There is a moment, a concept of time

    Where reason has vanished, the being so fine

    The seasons they call you, your heart it holds dear

    The elements of life, you see touch and hear.

     

    But now its is waning, your soul is quite lost

    Your life it needs changing, but you balk at the cost

    For freedom has vanished, your bound by your word

    You scream for your justice, but no sound is heard

     

    The need to step out, from your fettered soul

    To rise to the stars, to reclaim your true goal

    But is that the reason, the purpose we’re here

    To find things beyond, to accept what you fear?

     

    Or is to be content, to go on with your day

    To ignore what is constant, what holds you at bay

    The gentle knowing that your heart is not true

    To keep up the offing, the payment still due

     

    To seek what is needed, the guilt it does rise

    Avoid truth in mirror, it shows in your eyes

    Its pain it is growing, the sadness a state

    To know you are losing, your soul at this rate

     

    To cause the pain that can rip you apart

    The breaking the broken to reclaim your heart

    Guilt is the burden, the yolk you shall bear

    To know you have harmed what is no longer there.

     

    The need for real laughter so strong and so free

    To enjoy the sunrise, the need to just be

    We come here to learn to and be what we are

    But at what cost or what price to push it how far

     

    Someday will be shown the road I shall turn

    The freedom of love, sometime I will earn

    It tugs and it pulls, and I hear the call

    Proof of the wonder love is truly for all.
