Will You Let Me

Place my head upon your shoulder Wrap me in Your warm embrace Chase away these premonitions Grant me, Jesus, saving grace Will you let me feel your presence? Bring the peace of heaven near I am fainting from my sorrows Whisper to my heart, "You're dear!" Will you cradle me so gently? Sooth my tempset batterd soul Hush those inner howling voices Love me, heal me, make me whole Still my thoughts from frantic chasing Ease my every aching part Let your tears fall on me freely Wash me as you mend my heart Let me rest here for this moment, Comfort me with love songs now Tell me once again You're faithful Good will triumph still somehow Jesus, Savior, Lord, and Refuge See the war that rages still Stop the carnage, please, I beg You Hate seeps in against my will Will you help me to surrender Trusting that all will be well Will you promise to protect me From this world that feels like hell Jesus, Prince of Peace, remember We are waiting anxiously COME, Lord Jesus, come and save us Come and claim Your victory!

Dear Eileen, What a cry of reverence and so vulnerable, aching, and courageous. Felt much like a prayer reaching out. The raw honesty where you've given voice to the weight of sorrow and the fragile hope that still dares to speak. May it echo in heaven like incense and bring peace, even if just for today. With love and quiet awe, Summer Blessings, My Dear Eileen, Daniel

Thank you for your lovely comment, dear. As for AI, I only recently discovered that you can create music using it. I know... I'm behind the times. I don't know how. But thank you for the visit. :)
