He's Always With Me...
I feel alive, and yet alone
an emptiness within my soul
a ray of light, allowed to be shown
a miracle developing story untold
I see a glittering star in the lonely darkened sky
a beautiful moon colored so right
whisk of winds , break free and clear
shallowness of breath , reappears
I hear my inner thoughts, calling out inside me
pleading for the very chance
to emerge outside my body
I smell the scent of a chimney flowing in the breeze
while leaves fall around me, falling lightly
I ran across the grassy field, hands held up to the sky
for the contentment and peace ,I so desperately sought
I wanted so badly to find
I found the end of gate, not knowing what awaits
awaits for me on the other side
I dropped to the ground, for I was still bound
and there was no escaping in sight
I touch a daffodil, running my fingers across the top
slowly picking it apart, from beginning to end
all that is left, is the stem
I sense this is the season
for my suffering and my pain
I wait for tomorrow, in hopes of no sorrow
when joy and happiness come to stay
I turned around to see this light
this light coming out of the clouds
a helicopter, I thought or maybe the cops
but something about this light was profound
I drew closer and closer
as the light became stronger, pulling me out of the darkness
suddenly it became clear, for God was still here
taking me on a journey of faith
I flew above the heavens, above the clouds and seas
only with my soul, not with my body
he showed me so many, beautiful things,
all of his works, his angels with wings
I felt this passion deep in my soul, a feeling of redemption
no longer cold, but a warmth so true
so amazingly clear, that I was in heaven, with no hurt and no fear
only the love that was right before me, and the everlasting faith I was taken to see
a look back on my life, through all the misery, all the temptations, all the deceit
he was with me, he never left my side
seen all of my tears, heard all of my cries
my questions and doubts, my anger and shame no longer exist
for my life has been changed
My father in heaven has washed and cleansed, my soul and my sins
I want the world to know, there is a better life, for all who just believe
don't give up so quickly, have faith and you'll see
he's been then from beginning to end
from start to finish, from birth to death
from your very first step to your very last breath
give him the glory, the songs and the praise
for his name is truly,
Amazing grace....
