His Light

In the Darkness of My Depression.

A gentle breeze flowed through my soul

Wafting through the shadows that were crowding me,

And allowing the light of His presence

To break through my darkness.

I have been so far away

From the one who loves me most of all,

Allowing the depression to carry me

Away from his loving presence.

But at my call he answered me

And at my cry he rescued me,

And drew me from my darkness

Into his warmth and peace and light.

Like a father cradling his infant

He wrapped his arms around me,

And as I poured out my heart to him

He wiped my tears away.

Then he took from me my dark cloak

And I felt truly free,

I knelt and humbly thanked him

For all that he has done.
