“But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy,” (Eph. 2:4 NIV)
God’s precious love is rich and all abiding for His children. Years ago while going through a troubling time in my life I was inspired to write the poem below.
HOLD ME LORD
Will you hold me today Lord?
Will you keep me from falling apart?
Will you show me the way
And mend my broken heart?
Will you hold me tight
And take away my fright?
Will you guide my shaky steps
Away from the darkest night?
I will hold you child
No matter what you do.
I will see you through the night
And always be there for you.
Your love is imprinted in my hands.
For I took your pain
And felt it on the cross
For your eternal gain.
Never fear child of God
He is faithful and true.
His love is eternal and
Will always be there for you.
