A New Found Soul

Drifting from place to place.
   Doing nothing more than consuming space.
Life that had simply lost its reason.
   Like a flower that blooms, not knowing its season.
A lonely, lonely soul in an uncaring land.
   At the very mercy of unknowing hands.
So far down the ladder that all hope had left his mind.
   Not caring of tomorrow for he knew what he would find.
Then a gentle voice softly tugged at his soul.
   And said you’re not really lost but have simply lost your goal.
The voice had come from deep within.
   With encouragement as where to start all over again.
First, humble yourself before the Lord.
   Seek His guidance but stay on guard.
For the enemy is out there to lead you wrong.
   But always praise our Savior with worship and song.
To this new found soul it worked so well.
   He loves to testify to all who will hear his tale.
                    GLORY TO GOD
