From Psalm 4:8: “I will both lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O Lord, make me lie down in safety.”
Lying awake in night’s darkness
Hearing promises from voices
Most too good to really be true
Filled with countless, empty choices
Tackling another stressful day
Witnessing contrasting voices
Thoughts quite overwhelming again
Faltered in making best choices
Retreating into quiet place
Searching, listening to voices
Father’s Word opens mind and heart
Found at last, His trusted choices
Hearing each righteous cry for help
Nurturing Father’s faithful voice
Enemy’s plan reduced to dust
Raised His Son, salvation’s sole choice
Harvesting empty void no more
Walking in step with Savior’s voice
Jesus cries out, journey finished
Saved man with mercy’s final choice
Seeing truth in these promises
Extending Father’s righteous voice
Grace deepens His Son’s love for thee
Accepting Christ, life’s blessed choice
From John 19:29-30: “A jar full of sour wine was standing there. So they put a sponge full of the wine on a branch of hyssop and held it to His mouth. When Jesus had received the wine, He said, ‘It is finished.’ Then He bowed His head and gave up His spirit.”
