My Name is Ruth (Part 2) by James Welch
Traveling from earth to sky
Like Jacob you are a ladder
Linked to the sea of glass
Where angels gather
To see what will come to pass
They ascend and descend
On the sound of your heart
You’re the gates of your soul going up
And your spirit coming down
Revelation pouring in
And the kingdom being spread around
The core of you is sealed in hope
Beauty reflecting from side to side
Your gate goes ever higher
Lift your head and keep your heart open wide
Grace and joyous strength flows
Within a righteous tide
Bountiful justice and mercy
Guiding the course of every stride
Now behold the determined harvesters
Who burn and smell like praise
Their eyes are lit with love and they move
In supernatural ways
I am Ruth
I stand in the frame
Go beyond the door
Into the sound of His name
