Thief In The Night
by Tony Melendez

Album: Ways of The Wise


The deal was struck
The time was up
The fate of many firstborn sons
Hung in the creeping mist
Some chose the night
Some saw the light
And kept the feast before the Lord
In faithful helplessness

As in the time of Pharoah
When the signs were clear
For those with eyes
Awakened to the truth
Love waits by the window of time
With identity cleverly veiled
From the view of all but few

Then it happens
Like a thief in the night
Striking suddenly
Death brought to life
Some are waiting anxiously
Some by surprise
When love attacks its prey
Like a thief in the night

Before our eyes
The raging skies
Reveal His glory as the heavens
Press upon the earth
One mighty sweep
He reaches deep
To snatch the souls of those
No longer bound within the curse

The human mind perceives it
To be the end of the age
Reality reveals it as the dawn
And even the wise are left blinded
To ponder the mystery of
All that lies just beyond

Then it happens
Like a thief in the night
Striking suddenly
Death brought to life
Some are waiting anxiously
Some by surprise
When love attacks its prey
Like a thief in the night
