Red Ink

His words bring hope when life is on the brink,
 When dark, destructive thoughts seek to depress
 And broken, anguished hearts begin to sink.
 He stills the troubled waters of the soul,
 Takes shattered shards of life and makes them whole.
 From birth to empty grave he came to bless
 And His love story's written in red ink.

Thank you, Laura. In my mind it was actually about the love, life and sacrifice of Christ. Best wishes Wendy
