Alone and Weak

Alone and Weak


When I feel alone and weak
I read your word and seek
While your so eager to teach
No further than just a reach
Always by our side
Leading the way down the path
Serving as a comforter and guide
Claiming and protecting us from the wrath
Lord you are the only way
Any saying other have gone astray
I feel your presence get stronger and stronger
As I pray it will not be much longer
When you will wipe away these tears
Turning them to joy and cheers
I see many signs taking place
As you teach to hold on and endure the race
Those who you can call your friend
Will stick it out till the end
I saw by your faith all I need
As you came and planted seeds
While protecting them from the weeds
I hear you calling
And I let you in to change my desires
No longer chasing the worlds delights
But trying to reflect you to shine bright
As you gave the world sight

Amen. This so so beautiful, a firm declaration of faith in the word of God. When ever we feel lonely and desperate, turn the pages of the Holy Bible and you'll see a guide and comforter there. When we are by His presence, all our tears will dry up and joy and cheers will take their place. Stephan, this lovely poem goes into my FAVE.

Thanks all praise to him, this is 22 years worth of poems , it started off when I was using my mind to try and make since and what man was trying to teach me, then I broke free and understood we don't need man to teach us, but go to him directly for that is what he came to accomplish,bless you in your walk
