Frank McEleny Poems

To know the unknowable you
Is all I want to do
To plunge the depths of your love
Is to soar in the heavens above
...

Parting is such an empty sorrow
Yet there is always a sweet tomorrow
There is such a pain within my heart
When that time comes that we must part
...

Can the rain fall from cloudless skies
Can your tears fall from hardened eyes
I cried out to the Lord, in my time of need
I prayed for the rain, my soul to feed
...

To be chained in Christ
Is to be free indeed
Free to die and free to bleed
Free to walk the pilgrim way
...

I have seen the heavens descending
And the beauty of Christ arise
For there is no comprehending
As His glory fills the skies
...

The heavens are clothed with blackness
And the sun has fled away
Who will weep for all the children
On this most terrible day
...

I would run a million miles
Just to see your face
And I would climb the highest peak
Just for one embrace
...

To continually gaze into the heart of God
Is to dwell in the realm of faith
For when we lift our eyes to Him
It is there that we are safe
...

In light of yet in spite of
The life that you now lead
You are deeply loved by God above
Deeply loved indeed
...

O Lord you have seen my afflictions
Come now and deliver me
You see how they bind and chain me
Break these chains and set me free
...
