Take Me to the Dawn of Creation

A Poem By Joy Aletheia Stevens

Dedicated to My Husband

~

Take me to the dawn of creation

So I can see your birth

The moment the thought of the nations

Came into the earth

 ~

I want to see

The thought that was pure in God’s mind

Let it be

I want to know the treasure I’d find

 ~

I saw a glimpse of an incredible man

And I caught my breath as he stretched out his hand to me

And then I saw the flesh and the blood of a dream

And I wandered into dreams so it seemed

 ~

And the curtains were falling

My heart he was calling

Thoughtless, clueless was he

That all this was to be

 ~

And now we stand face to face

You aren’t perfect just washed in His grace

But in the dawn of creation I saw in God’s mind

A thought an idea of the depths I now find

 ~

I will always be here

I have nothing to fear

This is my place

To watch in God’s grace

 ~

As the light of God’s image consumes you

And makes more then you ever knew of you

With joy and fulfillment I stand at your side

And I will watch forever as a faithful bride

 ~

This is my joy this is my place

To see the light in your face

This is my life this is my breath

All this I confess

 ~

Take me to the dawn of creation
