Gabriel Don’t Worry, Shine A Light Poem by Mary Wismer

Angels have come to bring with them
in thought and deed and, also, hymn
the message of God and His wisdom great
His love, His wants for all our fate.
They bring on high their protection strong
To guide us all when things go wrong
To teach us patience when none exists
To help us see what blindness missed
To help us hear what deafness hides
To help us feel what touch denies
To give us peace when frighten 'round
To fill us with love when hates abound
To encourage the feeling
A feeling with which we all should live.
So if the darkest night
within our souls doth shine a light
to warm us with forgiveness and sharing
and with compassion and, caring.
All these are sent from heaven divine
for the Angels have brought them
Twas God's Design.
