VOID

This Emptiness - my plague by day and night,
Round my neck it hangs, a yoke unwanted,
Haunting, taunting, mocking with all might,
Constant companion, never undaunted.

Into this Emptiness, now He appears,
Relentless, pursuing Presence, Love strong,
Embracing and holding me near,
Oh sweet Relief, flood my heart with heaven's song!

This Fullness - all consuming Lord of light,
Healer of the hollow, Mercy without measure,
Under your wings, I'll soar to lofty heights,
It's Jesus! Yes, Jesus! My Fullness ever!
