Desert experience
by julie clark The mountains and hills stretched out before me The heavens above called my name The path stretched out before me Long and straight and bare The sun shone down upon me And warmed my half naked skin And suddenly I felt alone And very much afraid Then Jesus stood before me And the spirit flew all around The voice of God called out to me Peace my child, no need to fear Your not alone we three are here To comfort guide and call So rest for a while till we open your eyes To the beauty set before you today I saw before me a cool flowing stream So I sat and took my rest I drank within the life giving stream And it cooled my angry heart Then a snake came out from within a rock And at once I knew his name The devil came to cause distress And make me fear again But my Jesus with a mighty sword Cut off that snakes big head Then he looked at me and smiled At last you are truly free I felt a peace flow through my heart And I know I had been released And now at last I saw the truth Through Jesus we have the victory Then a voice called out from heaven And the mountain crumbled with fear The road before me filled with light And so much beauty and with flowers I looked upon them and could not fear When I saw the beauty around I got to my feet and carried on With a new song within my heart A song of love and victory A song of peace and strength And I will take it with me To share along the way my name is julie clark and I have been writing poetry since I was sixteen, when I moved away for a job.
