Journey

The daunting mountain in the undulating terrain of life, 
needs to be climbed as the summit alluringly calls,
follow the undefined trail in the surging storm of strife. 

Cross with devotion the designed gateways God installs, 
and in His prescribed ordain repose your steadfast trust, 
faith will show the path in the dark night of dreary squall. 

The turbulent ocean of tempestuous life in grueling gust, 
needs to be sailed serene, and the last anchorage found, 
get guided by His omnipresent beacon with dedication just.

The dark alleys of suffering suffused with silence profound, 
need to be lighted, and broken heart recovered from abyss, 
in the radiance of divine essence God’s grace will abound. 

Floating on prayer hymn the journey isn’t construed amiss,
it takes life through the stillness of soul to the bay of bliss.
