He's No Longer Yours But Mine

6 Feb 2011 12:45 pm Drowning my emotions While swimming in lifes oceans Amidst an armada of failures and fears Cannons fireing accusations and insults and stinging tears Swords of words are slicing at my soul and stabbing at my heart Gaffs that hook and pull me tareing me apart What can I do my boat has sank and the sharks await their meal Alas I see a hand stretched out not to hurt but heal The thunder of the cannons echo on and the pinging of the sword The gaffs still reaching and grabbing to pull me back on board The hand that saved me holds me surely and yet kindly His messangers sent forth proclaiming he's no longer yours but Mine. That was many years ago and in His army I gladly serve He is the one who saved me from a fate I did deserve
