When sorrows bring me down And I haven’t a friend to be found When dread darkens my thoughts And nothing I feel is worthwhile When fear colors my whole world And hues of black flow all around There is the opportunity, the chance To give it all to One who can lift me up Reassure and encourage, fill me with hope Light my heart and soul with inspiration There is One who listens to my plea He understands my requests Hears my longings and supplications There is One who attends to my needs He hearkens to all my petitions He appreciates my solicitations There is One who hears all my prayers He listens with care to my invocations Answers my heart’s appeals With kindness, a tender affection That reveals the warmth of His giving There is One who I go to when I’m in need One who cares, delivers and inspires One who lights up my thoughts with joy One who makes a way for my dreams One who promises and I believe There is One who knows me And gives me His greatest gift The love that I treasure with Everything I believe or dream With everything that brings me The sweetest joy and serenity Love like this could never be fake It is love like this that makes a way Where there is no way It is love like this that shows me the way Toward the faith that is strong, and I pray For His mercy and grace, felt by the heart Who knows that He is alive on the inside And will forever bring the answers To those pleas for compassion Pick-A-Title, Vol 26 - Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Edward Ibeh Title Chosen: 4.)
