Power

Pure in heart for I shall see God
Work through my struggles all my days
For He is with me in all things 
I shall not be afraid

One day freedom comes
Walking head held high
Jesus is my Savior, He is my light
Knowing He is near, no need for fright

Worries ought not to live in me
No place near when God’s around
Free from sins and old demons
Because of Him I’m no longer bound

Every step is planned by Him
Breath that fills my lung preordered
How could I not see this before?
HE was always in my corner

Redeemer is He
Jesus Christ, Heavenly King
Father, Abba, maker of me
Holy Spirit, brings me peace

POWER is He that gives me strength
To get through each and every day
I fight, fall, have given up don’t want to go on
It’s Him that lifts me off the ground carries me all the way

Isn't it wonderful Teresa to know that we are forgiven. Isn't our Savior great. (Because of Him I am no longer bound) Excellent poem. God Bless. Leon
