Saving Me

Saving Me Slipping in the silence of the quiet of my mind. Clinging to a shred of hope for the peace that I can't find. Drowning in the darkness of my imagination. Struggling with just giving up being my greatest temptation. When You come through the shadows gathering like the night. Bringing me salvation and bringing me Your light. Saving me from dangers I feel but I can't see. Shining through the blackness saving me from me. The Master of the universe the calmer of the storm. Each time my heart is broken You keep me safe and warm. The Hero of the ages the giver of my sight. The savior of my spirit Oh God You are my light. The lily of the valley the One that calmed the sea. The lifter of my spirit that's saving me from me. Edwin C Hofert
