Dawne Zacharias Poet Prose

I Will Be With You

I walk upon the earth with my pup
No one is in sight they are all closed up
Tight within their homes with flight and fear 
From the Covid 19 we battle here
It seems on line the only safe place to go
But in my heart I reach for the Savior I know. 
Peace He brings, His love is near. He speaks 
His word and makes it clear, "I will be with
you, no matter the course, you know by heart
a special verse, would you share what you have
rehearsed? Yes my Lord I will.

The Lord is my Shepard I shall not want
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures
He leadeth me beside the still waters He restoreth my soul

He leadeth me upon the paths of righteousness for his namesake
Yea tho I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
 I will fear no evil for thou art with me, 
Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of my enemies
Thou annointest my head with oil, my cup runneth over
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days
Of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever and ever. Amen.
(The 23rd Psalm)
