Sweet Lord I'm Scared

In the middle of the night in 2009 I found myself scared of the road I was on...I came downstairs and went onto the computer turned it off. I pulled out a piece of paper and this conversation began....I reflect on it in times when I am at a low point on this journey...funny tonight it came to mind and I felt I ought to share it with all of you....Enjoy btrflynana

Sweet Lord I’m Scared of What’s Yet to Be

I sit here weeping my heart torn in two
My lord my God what is this daughter of yours to do?
Frightened I am of what I can’t see
Frightened of what the future will be
And then I hear the words deep inside
Take hold my hand child sit and confide
I am your friend the one that is unseen
I am the one the almighty he
It is your tears that tug at my heart
Wising you’d remember we’re not far apart
You hear my whispers ever so low
My words embedded to soften this blow
Hold tight my child as your up through the night
Hold tight to my hand as I am your guiding light
My lord my master, please take this away
It’s all I have my sweet lord to say
My child if I could
Then surely I would
But alas sweet one this is your task
My bright little star the one that will last
A life created with a purpose in mind
To show the world your heart’s all mine
Sweet lord I’m scared of what’s yet to be
Oh dear child of mine please leave the worrying to me
You’re not alone in front for all to see
The strength that comes from no one other than me
A flower of sorts to blossom and grow
A flower you see for all to know
Your strength as I said will come from me
I am the one the almighty he
I love you my child you’re never alone
I am the one you have always known
I will give you the strength that you need
I am the one who has created your special seed

Angele I am so glad you enjoyed it and thank you for the sweet compliment. This life journey we are on can be a tough one...yet if we keep the Lord at the front he makes it easier to take...I often tell myself he suffered far worse than I ever will. God bless and I hope your having a good day! Hugs
