Arise

Arise Arise all you sleepers awake Open your eyes for your souls sake While the love of the world grows cold Lord fill us with thy spirit to stand bold While I am young but yet this world makes me feel old You are the cornerstone of the construction While I see many headed to destruction Lord I stay focused on you As you guide and pull me through While keeping my mind free and clear And banishing thy fear In this evil world you relieve thy pain And wipe away all trails of rain I turn to you while you bring comfort and peace For you have already defeated the beast As you teach to watch out for others yeast May your will be done here on earth As we turn to you to receive new birth While leaving the world delights As our feet follow your light Gliding swiftly eager to unite

Some will wake when it is to late. This poem reflects the difficulty of today's times and the need for guidance and comfort so that we will eventually unite with Him. A wonderful spiritual write. Phyl
