Faith


I have an Audacuius Faith and Jesus Christ is My escape His Strong Tower is My shelter Giving Protection through the Pouring Rain As Each Storm brings with it destruction,darkness and rage Then its soon followed by warmth of the Sun bringing renewal to every page. A Lesson rememberd I returned to drawing board Back to the foundation And all that was sacred to the Lord To try and understand just a little bit more Why some of us have so much and just throw it away and others having nothing to claim except life till that to gets Ripped Away Bringing suffering & endless pain Homeless and Shamed And still they sacrifice themselves each and every day. Then others go & Rob cheat lie and steal Then come to a place they can call Home to a loyal family clean clothes heat and beverage and a hot meal But all the same His Holy fire Burned alive My cold heart & troubled mind Day after day I Always tried As I Battled the negativity trying to corrupt my life And when I'd feel like I kept losing these questions filled and haunted time after time. It was always consuming try to explain what happened But nothing seemed right
