COME TO ME
OH YOU ARE MY GOD
WHAT SEEMS SO IMPOSSIBLE IN A DECAYING WORLD
IS NOTHING TO YOU
YOU DEWELL ACORINGLY ABOVE THE BROKEN
MY BROKEN HEART
AND NOW - I KIN TO HEAVEN
I KNOW MY ONLY COMFORT IS YOU
YOU WHO HAVE REVEALED YOUSELF TO ME
STEADY ME
ENCOURAGE ME
LET ME NOT BE BOUND BY NAY SAYERS
LET ME NOT LISTEN TO
TWISTED LIES
DECEIT
BETRAYALS
MURDEROUS ACTS
I WILLINGLY BEAR THE CROSS OF JESUS
AGAIN AND AGAIN
AND THROUGH DOING SO
I HAVE REASONED THAT JESUS DIED SO WE NEED NOT
YOUR SPIRIT - OH LORD
IS MY ONLY LEAD
I CAN ONLY RESPOND
I MUST KEEP FAITH IN YOU ABOVE ALL ELSE
AND NOT IN THE FAMILIAL WORLD
BUT ONLY YOU AND THE ANGELS YOU HAVE SENT
TO PROTECT ME
AND TO DECERN FOR ME GOOD FROM EVIL
AFTER COMING THROUGH A DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL
TO THE INDIGO SKY WITH A CLEAR HEART
I AWAIT THE NEW DAWN
THEN THE RISING SUN IN WHICH BRINGS YOUR WARMTH
AND STRENGTH FOR A NEW BATTLE
I CAN BELIEVE YOU - YOUR SON - YOUR SPIRIT
WATCH OVER ME
NOW AS IN THE BEGINNING
IS NOW
AND FOREVER
AND FOR ALWAYS
ALL HONOR AND GLORY BELONGS TO YOU
I WANT TO BE ON THE EDGE OF GLORY
AS THE EDGE OF A COIN IN THE THREE DEMENTIAL WORLD
HOLY TRINITY COME
(C)...CATHERINE BUCHNER 2012
