I Trust In You


I trust in You oh Lord, For through You I am more than a conqueror. I trust in You because every one of Your words is pure, And You are a shield to all who put their trust in You, I was blind oh Lord and caught in the world, Longing for the fruits of life, But oh Lord I was dead. I came before You broken and shameful, Yet You gave me rest and assurance. I was no longer a mere vagrant but rather I made my home in You. And as far as the east is from the west is how far You cast my sins from me. But oh Lord I am still sinful and wretched, And the world sees my weakness and comes against me. But Lord through the toil I know You are with me. And I pray that one day You make me as gold through the flames, And that I can become someone worthy of the salvation You granted me.

Everything I write I dedicate to God because He saved me and I want to praise Him. I want God to use my poetry to touch people's hearts and let them feel His love to.
