Poetry Sunday ~ Shine On

Job 33: 30 To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living.

Shine On...

My yesterdays have gone astray

they lurk forever more.

hiding behind the pain inside,

they seek an open door.

My today’s have been quite lovely

whenever I praise His name.

nothing can hold me captive;

through Him I’m not the same.

My tomorrows will be brighter

more days of sun not rain.

it’ll wash away my sorrows

driving off the inner pain.

My past is gone forever

I hold the hidden key.

On a chain around my neck

it’s locked all memory.

The future of mine has promise

as a beacon holds my gaze

I long for life within the realm

where I carry all my days.

The Lord is the comforting arms,

my strength, my shield, my rock.

I may hold the key to my soul

it is HE who made the lock!
