AHO Speaks - Names I Know

You go by more names than one
Always predictable as our earthly sun.

Before even Jehovah and long after the last
Each a perfect reflection of the future and the past.

our name is but the shell wherein you reside
With whom you love and have by your side.

For the gifts you give even when we do not receive
The word is magnanimous; for it holds and you will not leave.

Your name brings up memories and dreams
Of what you have done for each of us on this scene.

You gave us the sacrifice and we did wrong
Then the altar with incense and song.

We try to find the best way when there is only one way
We can see a part of eternity if we truly look at today.

I know you exist because you give us tomorrow in time
As you give us life and soul; and to make us thine.
