A Need Hidden By a Shadow
A need that is hidden by a shadow
shouldn't allow anybody to stoop low.
My search for the truth leads me to a discovery:
the longing for a shiny light, the yearning for God
is felt at times of hopelessness; my worry
and impatience knows what He can unfold
for a lonely who did not wish for a harsh fate,
for all the struggles and the strides, he made!
A need that is hidden by a shadow
shouldn't allow anybody to stoop low.
Luscious green lands created by God
and somewhat unexplored by Mankind...
show the stunning beauty of a garden
who once had harmony and was called Eden!
A need that is hidden by a shadow
shouldn't allow anybody to stoop low.
Ah, the oppressed and the meek
face a tomorrow frightfully bleak!
Much stringer is the loin that chases deer,
the weaker is the sheep that bleats out of fear!
A need that is hidden by a shadow
won't deter me from showing thankfulness
for the wonderful gift I received in a month of frost and snow;
I received life as a baby and later I realized its preciousness!
