At 3 AM
©2002 Michael D. Renneker

The wind blows outside my window at 3AM

A soft shroud of light surrounds me, and pulls me in

and the world seems so restless

far from the waking hour

but now I float free and formless

over a field of wild flowers

at 3 AM

The moon lights a lonely highway at 3AM

I move through this timeless journey that has no end

where every tie has been severed, every bridge is burned

but I feel the love in this new world

from which there’s no return

at 3 AM

High above in my atmosphere

past and future both crystal clear

each loved one I have ever known

is there to welcome me back home

to live within His grace

for all eternity

at 3 AM 

High above in my atmosphere

past and future both crystal clear

the chaos of my life’s events

played back it all make perfect sense

here at the judgment

of the Court of the Hereafter

at 3 AM

The night watchman drinks his coffee at 3AM

while I bow before the One who is

and has forever been

and through the mourning and sadness

every prayer was heard

and the place of my eternal destination’s been secured

at 3 AM

I am with Him
