Life's Mystery Dance
by Michael Doyle

It's true. God's good love endures forever
While I'd love to claim differently, I'm not so clever
But I do know this is a promise on which we can rely
After chasing false love, I was led to this love I cannot deny

There is more to this than the temporary
And I've found that God's eternal love is not contrary
I've learned the love given by God is not transactional
It's the real of the real thing; no matter how analytical

I process the claims as I approach what I know of life
There is only one way to God's peace and overcome strife
I look on the heavens composed by God's craftsmanship
And I feel my way to the art of living as I worship

Not that which is visible, and that I can readily see
But the creator who reveals himself in all of His artistry
Does it also get your awareness in your full attention?
If so, maybe that's just the truth of God's good intention

Let this, then be my openly stated contention
That as we observe all there is for our ready retention
Loving and living life at God's open and ready invitation
Everywhere around we look and behold His open revelation

Seeing this, in our faith, puts aside any resentment
AS our lives lead us to our fullness and contentment
Enough is the enough felt in all truth and sincerity
And this brings us about to living life in generosity

I have lived long in this faithful sense of clarity
Knowing that life is to be lived with content sincerity
Walking as I do in every moment of life's circumstance
I have become joined in the best of life's mystery dance
