Please crit First of all, my condolences on your loss. You've conveyed the raw emotions through your words! They're simple, no fluffy language. If I would have anything to suggest just be careful with the syntax, like a few instances where two words didn't have a space between them (thisearth, asthere, etc).

Lonely in this World I Stand Guard my eyes from evil, Lord
Keep my ears from lies of old.




Help me speak Your truth and love

Tie my heart to Thine above.




Lonely in this world I stand

Longing for a helping hand.

Darkness fills the hearts of men

Like Daniel in a lions den,

I lay my trust in Thee alone

And all my troubles at Your throne.




Keep my heart from sin's desire

Cleanse me in Your flames of fire.




Lead me down the narrow path

Show me treasures heaven hath.




Lonely in this world I stand

Longing for the promised land.

Love, no longer seeking here

For perfect love doth cast out fear

And hereby in this love I dwell

That guards me in this passing hell.







[This is a Christian poem I wrote about the loneliness a child of God often feels during their journey. Hope you guys feel free to leave some feedback!]
