Veiled
Sheltered
Hidden
from searching gaze
But unable
to connect
to share the hope
and healing of beauty
to offer the gentle strength
we all needIsolated
Safe
And ineffective.

Unveiled
Life revealed
Glory manifest
Strength shared
Pressure to wear the veil
to hide
But You have torn it
the veil separating us from You
and You in us from each other
You have unveiled us forever
exposing for all to see
our transformation
the growth of Your glory in us.
Oh, let me not veil myself again!
