you are Mine...

I can find you in a million facessee you in the darkest room
find you when you think you’re hidden
and when the light shines through
because I Am
and you are Mine


when you stumble and you fall down
scraped and torn and bruised
I'm here and reaching out My hand
to someone broken and confused
because I Am
and you are Mine

you must trust Me that I’ll hold you up

that I am your strength and shield

your pride and self you must give up

if to My way you will yield

because I Am

and you are Mine


the plans and dreams that are all your own

you’ve laid before Me now

said you wanted to do My will

asked Me please to show you how

because I Am

and you are Mine


days of pain and days of glory will flit

before your wondering eyes

I will guide and teach and show you

how to fight the world’s lies

because I Am

and you are Mine


I’m here in your confusion and your loss

when you can’t see your way through

I hold you when you’re tempest tossed

and don’t know what to do

because I Am

and you are Mine


I am your ever constant source of hope

still you at times forget I’m here

but my promises never die

and I’ll wait ‘till you draw near

because I Am

and you are Mine


I hear your prayers and I feel your pains

understand the struggles that you find

know great loss and desolation

beyond thought by your mind

because I Am

and you are Mine


so I can comfort and uphold you

when the world’s falling down

because I walked for a time among you

for you I bore My Father’s frown

because I Am

and you are Mine


find in Me your joy and life of rest

assurance that I care for My own

always to Me you can return

I’ll not leave you alone

because I Am

and you are Mine


My heart breaks when you just won’t see Me

but when you repent and turn

know that you’re forgiven and loved

I am steadfast, you've yet to learn

because I Am

and you are Mine


your heart will fill with purpose and hope

when you take to heart My truth

and know that I am for you

since the days of your youth

because I Am

and you are Mine


so even when you’re unsure and fear
ful
I never change or vary

then place yourself in My hand

let me your burdens carry

because I Am

and you are Mine


I can find you in a million faces

see you in the darkest room

find you when you think you’re hidden

and when the light shines through

because I Am

and you are Mine

  1. I loved this. Very well done. My favorite verse was:
    I hear your prayers and I feel your pains
    understand the struggles that you find
    know great loss and desolation
    beyond thought by your mind
    because I Am
    and you are Mine

I'm glad you stopped by! Part of the fun for me in blogging is hearing from those who come to visit. If you want to comment or have additional thoughts I'd love to hear them. This is my rambling spot, so everything might not be clearly stated. Please keep it positive and Christ-honoring, but thought-provoking discussions are welcome! Quite honestly I'd be delighted if everybody who stopped by left a note.
