Joanna Daniel Poet Quatrain

Refuge and Strength

When I cry on my bed 
You hear me, Lord 
The shadow of Your wings 
My peace restored 

I cast all my worries 
Upon Your care 
You're my Refuge and Strength 
Your love is rare 

Broken-hearted I come 
Hide me in Thee
By Your grace lead me on 
Make my heart free

Love is conditional 
In this sad world 
But You love me for me 
Mercy unfurled 

I rest in Your promise 
You are faithful 
You're always there for me 
I am grateful
