I Know Him

Sometimes I feel like a child afraid of the night, Too frightened to move, unaware that everything is alright, But just as I know that the morning will appear, I know Him who rids me of all my fear. Sometimes I feel like a sailor lost at sea, Aching for land and yearning for safety, But just as I know that calm waters must form, I know Him who appeases the raging storm. Sometimes I feel like a soldier on the frontline, Battling the enemy while running out of precious time, But just as I know that lives will be saved, I know Him who promisingly delivers the day. Sometimes I feel like a fugitive out on the run, Trying to escape reality, chasing the setting sun, But just as I know that I will discover where I rightly belong, I know Him who forever guides me along. Although life climbs to overwhelming peaks, I know the man whom I eternally seek. I seek the face of the one true and marvelous God, The celestial Father who walks with me as I travel this sod.
