From Psalm 142:3-4: “When my spirit is faint, You know my way. In the path where I walk, they have hidden a trap for me. Look on my right hand and see: there is no one who takes notice of me; no refuge remains to me; no one cares for me.”
Floundering at life’s darkest end
Feeling trust in patience sinking
Plunging ever deeper . . . deeper
Faith’s emptiness never shrinking
Wandering away from Shepherd
Seeing only darkness ahead
Feeling last breath of hope fading
Faith missing blessed, daily bread
Following one more false promise
Running into final dead end
Finding lost anchor’s solid rock
Faith at last, refuses to bend
Rising with hope’s trusted beacon
Lighting way on Emmaus Road
Praying without ceasing to God
Faith’s living water, overflowed
Worshipping in Gospel’s safe place
Facing each new day without fear
Tracking to follow Shepherd’s voice
Faith’s tomorrow, forever clear
From Psalm 23:1-2: “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside still waters.”
