Persevere

by julie clark  
9/07/2008 / Poetry

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
