Safe and Sound

Safe and Sound

When you look into heart deep inside
Why is it such a perfect place to hide?
Things afraid of and will worry about
Done when you were deep in doubt.

Pressure appears on surface of skin
As it starts to quiver again and again;
What you thought was a piece of cake
Turned out to be quite a big headache.

What will straighten out this big mess?
God always does when He will bless;
Relieving stress so things can calm down
Made me happy now not wearing a frown.

If in your heart things are hard to bare
Stop for second and say a small prayer
Even if by yourself and no one is around
With God will always be safe and sound.
