God, Where Are You?
By Scarlet Starlet of the Wind
Where are you, O God,
Where are you?
I look around and what do I see?
Disaster completely surrounds me
I've hit the bottom, my wounds bleed
God, where are you? I need thee!
The chains that constrict me
Are golden ones and filled with sinful glee
Those golden chains stop my breathing,
God, where are you? I need thee!
And now I know you're inside my soul
Now I know you can make me whole
Now I know You can break me out of those chains
And now I know you can take away pain
It took a little bickering
It took a lot of pain
It took your touch
It took your Name
It took a lot of trouble
It took your surprises,
It took a lot of mysterious thinking,
It took salvation
You gave me new life,
You gave me joy...
All I can say is thank you Lord.
That's where you are.
P.S: I know that the flamer is out there, and that their flame was only meant to get rid of Christianity - but you can never get rid of this powerful force that changes us all! So go ahead and say what you want - what can mere man do to me?
P.S.S: If you're wondering who/what the flamer is, look at the reviews for my other poem, Beautiful Praise.
