Poems

Far Beneath The Snow
I have known the blast of cold,
That long winter of discontent.
Deep has blown the icy wind
The dark of night has sent.

But, from underneath the frost
Grew forth a tiny seed,
Reaching for the sun's warm rays;
Crying out with need ...

"Give me sunshine or I die.
Please melt my freezing heart.
Restore the hope of spring, again,
To break the chill apart.

Pour your love into my soul,
To make my life grow strong.
My Lord, You were raised to bring the spring.
Lift me up; where You belong.

I will bloom where you are planted,
Your purity to know,
As You unfurl Your love;
A rose to rise within the snow."

But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord
I wait for God my Saviour my God will hear me

Micah 7:7
