When silence lines every fence;
When crowds drown every sense;
When my feet can't pull my weight,
For your strength Lord, I wait.
When the tides turn back at night;
When the sun dips from my sight;
When my eyes cloud the light,
For your will Lord, I fight.
When facing the high stone wall;
When favours mask prices tall;
When needs cannot toe the line;
For your humility Lord, I pine.
When brothers lift unwise arms;
When preachers hoard in swarms;
When hair seems to quickly grey,
For sweet innocence Lord, I pray.
A/N: Read Matthew 5 The Beatitudes. 'May God bless you with the kind of experiences in life wherein you may find that your faith transcends this finite world limited within petty/scientific reasoning to one that is spiritually enriched with wisdom, meaning and a broader sense of the goals of life.'
