Poetry

My heart is heavy today
for many reasons untold
But my Shepherd knows all things
So to Him I will boldly go

I sit at His feet humbly
Knowing He can see my heart
He reaches out to hold me
Giving me shelter in His arms

His voice gently telling me
how precious I am to Him
How He gave His life for me
So I am cleansed from all sin

I give my burdens to my Shepherd
Who once was the Perfect Lamb
He cleanses my heart with His blood
And imprints me in the palm of His hand

He gives me a heart of joy
As He assures me I am always His
Telling me nothing can separate us
As long as I confess my sins

He will always forgive me
And wash me clean with His blood
He will feed me with His Word
As He prepares my home above

My Shepherd will one day return
But not as a humble Lamb
He will ride a white horse
He is the King, He is I Am

I await His return with gladness
The eastern skies is where He will be
He will come back in clouds of glory
He is coming back for me

""In My Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also."" John 14:2-3 NKJV
