Yes in everything the Bible says he’s always hear and dear
His Holy presence I know surrounds me everyday
His word to me is so dear
His love abounds around me in everyway
His Holy presence I know surrounds me everyday
When I feel the pressures of this world
His love abounds around me in everyway
When my troubles seem to be confused
When I feel the pressures of this world
There are days that never go my way
When my troubles seem to be confused
I fully trust the Holy Son each day
There are days that never go my way
I wish I was His only child
I fully trust the Holy Son each day
Wishing I could rest in His lap for a long while
Try this and try not to be confused
His word to me is so dear
It’s a challenge rarely to be used
Yes in everything the Bible says He’s always here and dear
What a hoot I opened a poetry book in the middle to this and just had to give it a try.
Here’s the rules see what you can do. It was fun even though I was totally CONFUSED.
1) Each Pantoum stanza must be four lines long
2) The length unspecified, but must begin and end with the same line
3) The second and fourth lines of the first quatrain become the first and third lines of the next, and so on with succeeding quatrains.
4) The rhyming of each quatrain is abab.
5) The final quatrain changes this pattern
6) In the final quatrain the unrepeated first and third lines are used in reverse as second and fourth lines.
