Savior's Light

This is another series of poems that really helped me to learn and grow in the light of Christ. This is part one.

His Light


I see the light coming near,

I have no reason to fear.

He will help me back to Him,

Give me strength through thick and thin.

As I stand up tall and strong

He tells me I do belong.

My heart fills and then takes strength,

For Him I’ll take any length.

A gentle thought to my heart,

Says “Never from you I’ll part.

Stay closely here next to Me,

Your gentle guide will I be.”

Arms embrace and hold me tight,

Safe and warm; forever right.

His words fill my soul with joy,

Like a child with a new toy.

He'll now and forever be

My Lord God to comfort me.

His warmth starts to fill my soul,

I slowly crawl from my hole.

His light fills me, bright and pure-

I soon feel more strong and sure.

A whispered song; don’t forget-

You’re not quite perfected yet.


The Light


He is the rising Son,

Light of the East.

The Only Begotten One;

He loves to teach.

The Lord is the Light,

Light of the world.

Shadows removed from sight,

We can overcome our hurdles.

He opens His arms,

Find strength in His love,

Basking in His warmth,

Return to Him above.

He is always nigh,

Never far away,

Gives us strength to try,

Growing stronger by the day.

Faith in Him increase,

Love of His will grow.

Life and light beneath,

Letting your shine show.

He truly loves you,

So very very much,

And He needs you

To feel His touch.

You are His child,

Daughter of God,

Once in awhile,

Strayed from gospel sod.

He will help you come

Back into His arms,

He'll bring you home,

Back into His warmth.

He does long for you,

Waits for your return,

He will fight for you,

And help your fire burn.

You can keep His light

And shine it for all.

Your goal is in sight,

Heed unto His call.

Chorus

His arms open wide,

He feels your pain,

And takes you aside,

Your prayers are not in vain.
