Persevere
by julie clark Persevere persevere persevere That's what the lord has said to me Run the race before you Concentrate your thoughts on me And I will give you the victory But I am tired I said to my Lord I'm weary to the bone My brain feels like lead And my body wants to sleep I need to receive in peace Persevere, my sweet child Trust in me to keep you near There is no need to fear Read and trust in my every word And it will set you free But how do I rest always in you How do I let go of my fears How do I find the strength to fight? In a life full of battles and woes Concentrate your thoughts on me Rejoice in me even when you are low Get my words deep in your heart Pray to me with all everything within And have no other God but me Ive done what he said and found my rest Ive found the way that I must go Ive sunk the words into my heart And given him my woes And now I am living in victory my name is julie clark and I have been writing poetry since I was sixteen, when I moved away for a job. God gave me the words of encouragement and they have seen me through many rough days my blog site where you can find more of my poems is http://angelsinbroadstairs.blogspot.com/ Article Source: http://www.faithwriters.com |
