Crying out......What is this all about....O' LORD.......
am so full of sorrows, care less to see another tomorrow.
Death has crept in so slowly .....was so unaware.....
should had seen the signs, but didn't...... of what started to appear !
O' the desolation, loneliness, the awful despair !
Never alone....many may say....
yet o' my Lord, so far away from this one....do not remain...
o' "remember "....... I am but clay.
If Love has grown stale.....may the heart fall in Love again.....
'n in Mercy...o' Father please erase every willful act of sin....
do repent....'n know that Thy Mercy has no end !
Fill the heart with what needs to be, as it just seems so empty....
'n let me know that... Thou still loves me.
Renew the inner man....with strength....
forget me not....for now am old 'n gray....
cannot worship or serve THEE ...if in the cold grave !
So dark....all has become.........
o' speak.......am I still Thy beloved ?
O' by THEE.....am in dire need...to be fed.....
'n to have the oil poured upon the head.
THEN ..... suddenly appears the Brightness of the SUN.....
reminding the heart.. the Wonders of GOD'S EVERLASTING LOVE !
When all seems so barren...'n desolate......
am reminded that GOD can restore, replenish....'n bind up....
am reminded ...that HE has not, or will ever forget us !
O' the precious Covenant....by BLOOD !
Now do remember.......HIS WONDROUS FAITHFULNESS...
will arise, 'n sing a song of my Gratefulness.....................
THOU has been so faithful ,in ways....too numerous to count,
YOU ARE my FAITHFUL FATHER !
My Hope is in waiting; in awe of YOUR next move..........
never ,never know what to expect from YOU !
Like a burning Candle.....with a sweet smelling Fragrance,
unto it........drawing near.....I hasten.
With passion.....fought as one full of desire....
searched out, as one whose heart is afire.
O' never such an all consuming fire; never such...
of the world.....no drawing power as like THY SON'S !
HE is my LORD,SAVIOUR...'n BROTHER...
the FRIEND....shedding HIS BLOOD, for another !
HIS SPIRIT within, now I can say...ABBA FATHER !
The walk has been as a terrible war.....the pain....the scars....
yet, O' the Blessings truly outweigh it all...by far.....
the love, the desire...to be Eternally where THOU art......
o' to have in the forehead........ thy Mark.
PRECIOS HOLY SPIRIT.....ever restraint this one.....
YOU know how often, I am in a hurry to run....
so often get ahead of GOD'S WILL being done ......
of the heart, keep it in a state of Remembrance !
To every STORY....there is a Beginning 'n a End........
thru the first part....is of a SAVIOUR being sent.....
then .....came on the scene..... the Son of Man.....
'n the last part of the BOOK...HE will RETURN again !
David went to his grave with a hope........
of an everlasting promise his GOD SPOKE....
of a KING ......sitting upon the THRONE !
Today....in that same promise, is our HOPE also.
For now as await..must not Depend on the strength of fleshly arms...
but upon the SPIRIT OF THE LORD.......
WHO will bring down the enemy....in the Last War !
