Into the Greater Life

By Rev. Jeff Byrd

I stand today on sacred ground,

Not in the past where chains are found.

The stories told, the tears once cried,

Have served their purpose, then passed by.

 

No backward glance can light my way,

For Spirit speaks in now and play.

Each breath, a call to rise anew,

Each step, a door the Light walks through.

 

The weight I bore, I now release,

Old doubts dissolve in perfect peace.

The Power in me knows no lack—

With faith in front, I don’t look back.

 

Divine Design unfolds with ease,

Unbound by fear, I sail Life’s seas.

No longer held by “what has been,”

I claim the good that dwells within.

 

From here I go, in trust, in flow,

Where Love directs, I boldly grow.

My path is clear, the stars aligned,

With Spirit's gifts in heart and mind.

 

I am the Light, I am the Way,

I rise anew in Truth today.

The past is done, the skies are wide—

I move with Grace, and God as Guide.
