Best Depend Poems
Depend on you
There are footsteps that lead to my door,
but then they disappeared,
There used to be a pair of them,
back when you lived here
There was a time when laughter ruled,
the day and then the night
Now your laughter's just a memory,
frozen in the heat of time
Bridge
Daydreams are what helps me, make it through each day
Sweet memories sustain me, ever since you went away
Pre chorus
Life can be so cruel...
it's not fair living without you
Chorus
I could-depend on you
I could always depend on you
Even in my darkest hour,
your love would shine on through
You would- lift me up out of the mire
Extinguish all my blazing fire
Tell me- now what am I supposed to do?
(I used to) depend on you
(I used to) depend on you
I remember those lazy days,
we'd spend out on the lake
We always thought that they would last,
that was our last mistake
It's hard for me to face this life,
living out here all alone
Even ripples run away from me,
when I'm out here throwing stones
Bridge
Daydreams are what helps me, make it through each day
Sweet memories sustain me, ever since you went away
Pre chorus
Life can be so cruel...
it's not fair living without you
Chorus
I could-depend on you
I could always depend on you
Even in my darkest hour,
your love would shine on through
You would- lift me up out of the mire
Extinguish all my blazing fire
Tell me- now what am I supposed to do?
(I used to) depend on you
(I used to) depend on you
I look out into, the bleak black sky,
and I wonder, where you are
I think of you every time I see,
another shooting star
I wish that you were still here,
to bring joy back to my life
but for now I'll rewind memories,
to help get me, through this night
Bridge
Daydreams are what helps me, make it through each day
Sweet memories sustain me, ever since you went away
Pre chorus
Life can be so cruel...
it's not fair living without you
Chorus
I could-depend on you
I could always depend on you
Even in my darkest hour,
your love would shine on through
You would- lift me up out of the mire
Extinguish all my blazing fire
Tell me- now what am I supposed to do?
(I used to) depend on you
(I used to) depend on you

My garden
It thirsts for water
It cries out for nourishment
My garden is me, you’re the water
I need you more than the sun
So never leave me
Here, alone

From now on, I depend on God* for my salvation
Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven’s mansion
He, thru His blood, paid for my redemption
As He reached down to me with His compassion.
Thus, I possess His eternal life geared for transformation!
From now on, I rely upon God for my growth’s progress
The Father feeds me with His provisions without stress
He leads me along His truth and righteousness’ fortress
As He nourishes me by His wondrous grace and divine caress.
Thus, I advance for His business, never His will to suppress!
From now on, I trust God for my pursuit toward holy living
The Lord cleanses my filthiness that makes my soul starving
He sanctifies me from my worldly, vain and carnal craving,
As He assures me that my sins He is constantly forgiving.
Thus, I, for His name’s sake, keep on virtuously striving!
From now on, I lean on God for my stability
The Savior strengthens me by His tenacity
He assures me His presence amidst any calamity
As He upholds me whenever I’m into adversity.
Thus, I’m clinging to His unwavering capacity!
From now on, I cleave to God for my contentment
The Spirit fills me with peace and encouragement
He satisfies me by His Word’s empowerment
As He secures me thru His perfect settlement.
Thus, I now rest in His promised victorious commitment!
From now on, I obey God in my stewardship and service
The Master called me to work in His great office
He guides me with wisdom that can biblically police
As He rewards my diligence with sacrifices’ pumice.
Thus, I’m now enjoying my labor, moved by earnest practice!
From now on, I entrust to God my welfare and future
The King fulfills His plan for me so I can virtuously mature
He prepares me well for heaven’s glorious grandeur
As He excites me on what to happen during the rapture.
Thus, I now await His coming in my spiritual adventure!
*Psalm 25:5 Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.

God who sits high on the the throne,
Is the only being on whom I can depend on.
People have and will do me wrong,
But God sits high on the throne
And He'll never leave me alone.
All of my help comes from Him.
All things are made by Him.
All that I must do is just put all,
Of my trust in Him everyday of my life,
And treat others the way I want to be treated,
And in my life I'll never be defeated. God sits
High on the throne. He sees all and knows all,
And with Him I'll never fall. On Him I can always
Call. God is my all and all, and He has the last say,
On everything all day everyday. I love the Father
In ever way. God sits high on the throne mightily,
And He fights and wins the battles for his glory.
God gave me gifts to serve the kingdom with that,
No one but Him can take away. So today and all days,
I'm exceedingly happy to say that I'm living my life to
The fullest and the plug on my life. He can only pull it.
So you can laugh at what I go through God made me,
And you for the upliftment of Him, and with Him only,
I will win.This is not my end . He is my true friend.
My God sits high on throne. He made me and will
Never leave me alone.

A grain of mustard
Smaller than the eye can see,
With faith as, can move mountains.
Revered for all time,
Mighty redwood warriors grow.
Attaining great age and size.
Rabbits with great speed,
Could win a race if challenged.
Usually stop and nibble.
Slow moving turtles,
With all odds against their win,
Use that grain of mustard seed!
On Him, I Depend
Jesus is my friend
On him, I depend
Troubles come my way
By my side, he'll stay
I praise his name
In prayers, he came
He will deliver me
From evilness, you see
I have confessed
When I'm depressed
Then there's my friend Troy
A great bundle of joy
Visited me in the hospital
Went out of his way to take me to my medical appointments
Always has a stroke of wisdom in his head
A great present from God in that I'm forever glad
Today I noticed rain clouds gathering
And the sky was turning gray;
Cooler air was moving in
As the winds kicked up a fray.
Birds stopped singing in the trees
As leaves began to drift
Up, down and all around
And my spirits began to lift.
You’d think the mood was melancholy
But the opposite was true;
Negativity does not depend on if or when
The sky is orange or black or blue.
I was lifted up and blown away
Like a rocket in the night,
The storm clouds coming my way
Were all but pure delight.
Knowing feelings are but a state of mind
We cultivate with care,
Like planting seeds and pulling weeds
In foul weather and in fair.
Sometimes we’re more successful than
This life ought to allow,
While other times we miss the mark
Not knowing why or how.
We let our moods go racing
Like wild horses running free,
Controlling who and what we are
Inside, we just can’t see.
The fact that we’re not mustangs,
Thoroughbreds or colts,
We’re so much more than runs on four
Legs and likes to bolt.
We’re the family of humanity
With minds that ebb and flow
From rainy clouds and starry nights
To the green grass down below.
And so we seek to control our temperaments
From the universe inside me and you,
Because negativity does not depend on if or when
The sky is orange or black or blue.
Your mum gone,
Your dad gone,
Who do you depend on?
Bobby,Kenny or me?
No!depend on God;
For you need God by you.
Why do you frown?
Be of good cheer,
For we overcome demon
by due power of God.
Wherever you go,remember God.
dear Lord God envelop us in your merciful arms
and keep us safely from all physical harm
deliver us from living an existence shrouded in anxiety and fear
shield us from the invisible forces of evil that are always near
allow those whom we have hurt to forgive us our mistakes
show us how to forgive ourselves, no matter how long it takes
compel us to see the joy that comes each and every day
reassure us that when we feel useless, everything will be okay
remind us that when we think we have nothing
when in fact we have more than most
anoint us with your grace and mercy
and the Spirit of the Holy Ghost
push us to exceed beyond our own expectations
and may we rely upon Your strength to give us confirmation
You gave us love, power, a sound mind and a measure of control
we no longer seek the approval of society
we depend on You to realize our goals
I am the one
whose heart breaks
into a thousand pieces
like bad luck for
seven years a mirror
reflects my life
I am the one
whose love
never dies
I am the one
whose love
can never die
and long, long
past when we
are gone
that is something
upon which you
can depend
Cake
Depend
Edible
Free from people
Gone
Who do you love and who loves you?
Who do you talk to and who talks to you?
Who can you depend on; who can depend on you?
Look mindfully around, open your eyes and ears
Stop shedding useless tears.
Accept the life you are in,
Without focusing on mindless fears.
Give some part of yourself,
Allow others in; live and let live.
Learn to love and forgive.
Open your overly cautious heart
Allow joy to enhance every part
A heart not open, cannot believe
A heart not open, cannot receive
Who do you love and who loves you?
Who do you talk to and who talks to you?
Who can you depend on; who can depend on you?
won't stop the rust
knock off the dust
here you get trust
you will not fess
you can
DEPEND ON US
I carry the weight of the everyone
And this pain has only begun
This life is so hard
Always getting your heart scarred
Always sobbing in your regret
Always trying to forget
The pain won't go away
Not tomorrow, not today
And the only one to depend on was myself
And no one else
he is your maker
and your breaker
he is not a fader
don't turn to others
my sister and brother
or not them
DEPEND ON HIM
