Fear of the Known

Have you ever anticipated your own execution? Knowing what to do to escape it yet too weak to implement it Have you ever lived in fear of your own death? And a constant reminder that drops in to keep you on your toes The feeling is aggravating, the cries of desperation How can I escape this, why can’t I escape it? The ditch will ditch me soon enough before I pitch my escape The poacher toils to eliminate me before I run to my safety pouch What will I do? What can I do? The answer lies within In a place I’ve been too busy to visit A place that holds peace but I myself I’m in shatters and pieces The consolation lies with Him With a person I’ve been too guilty to approach A person who holds my life but I hold back from giving Him all Have you ever wondered what it would be like? If, just for a moment, you would let go of all your worries Close your eyes and focus on the things that matter Perhaps, lay on your knees and lift your hands to heaven Hoping for a touch of love, a kiss of peace Longing for drop of his oil, the emblem of ecstasy Have you? Can you? Have you thought about moments like this? Your hand in His and His heart for you Our constellation in Him, beaming with grace and glory O, how I wish for brighter days The impending doom all gone And my will no longer torn Sweetness in His arms And everything away from harm Every night and all of my days I am coming soon I just hope it won’t be too late!!!
