A prayer - These words I write ...
Lord, may the words my pen would write,
be as a stream of grace and light.
And may the spirit of my soul,
reflect the source that makes men whole.
Lord, may a golden river flow,
from deep within the Spirit's glow.
As God has nourished saints this way,
please, in my darkness light my day.
Lord, may I know where dreams are bound,
and let me hear hope's wisdom sound.
I cannot live outside of hope,
without your love I would not cope.
All hope is built on selfless dreams,
and not on earth-bound temp'ral schemes.
One day I'll set aside this tent,
restore to God this crown I'm lent.
He saved me from death's dark despair,
replaced it with His grace and care.
He gave me hope when all seemed lost,
from death by faith, life's stream I've crossed.

Author Notes
Before I met God in an internal revelation of love in all its beauty and purity within my soul, I never new such joy, or even that there was any joy such as this and the hope that comes with it
it remains something that is impossible to describe in human speech or language, the closest I can get, is this scripture.
Philippians 4:7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
