Song of Peace


I wrote this poem the day God called me to write for Him. Eleven years to the day later, I received the call for a contract on The Other Side of Darkness, the title the Editor picked...not knowing about this poem. My original title was Dawn's Hope.




Praise the Lord most when
you cannot sing
Though broken, you are
beautiful  

Praise the Lord when Hope
seems foolish
There is light on the other
side of darkness

Praise the Lord and believe
His goodness

Look at His creations and
give Him praise
for the stars shine
brightest in the night

Though defeat seems imminent
Praise Him still
Praise  Him though sorrow
seems endless
The vast Horizon meets the
sky undefined yet limitless

Your Deliverer hears
He will lift you High above
the troublesome sea

This is the Song of Peace
