Though It Is Dark, Light Will Break Forth

It’s so dark, there is no signal of light
All my beloved ones have shifted away.
It’s just me in this dark brim tunnel.
I keep moving forward, but the more
I move forward the darker it becomes
Tears of sadness are rolling down my cheek.
God the creator of the Universe is the only person, I can talk to, 
Everybody is busy with their own world.
Though its dark, light will break forth!!

The more I talk to God, the happier I, 
Become. It’s like each day he is wiping, my tears of years.
He keeps telling me, He is the light of the world.
He keeps comforting me, it’s like day after day, I am closer to him. 
It’s like I have I have depended on him completely.
And have trusted him all the way.
Though its dark, Light will Break forth

I woke up today to a bright Morning sunshine,
With the light rays penetrating through my eyes.
I knew my day had come. Though it was a long time through
This tunnel. But my light has come; my day to shine has come.
It’s like God was saying, Arise Shine for the light has come.
The Glory of the lord has risen, 
The Glory of the Lord has come.
I said it, though its dark, but light will break forth!!
