A Modern-Day Psalm Of Praise!


A PCAF Member’s Praise!

Praise the Lord!
To the Saints of the Most High God.
A Modern Day Psalm of Remembrance.

I spent endless years without God.
And yet there was a presence at times.
It was a glimmer of light to the darkness of my soul.
Faintly revealing glimpses of His goodness.
Yet, through the darkness I went.
So dark!
It became oh, so dark!
Traveling without purpose.
Lost in the night.
Shivering in the cold.
The world…oh, so cold!
Afraid of the dark.
The days became as night.
Searching for help in the black.
So many voices, and yet, no answer.
Futile searching.
In desperation…I asked, “where am I going?”
No answer.
Lost…abiding time!
Waiting without hope.
Yet, I tried the darkness again and again…
Somehow searching for something.
Alone. Everything seems alone.
Afraid…
Trembling…
Lost.
Suddenly…as darkness came nearer, it clothed me.
In a moment, hell was taking me down!
I called…somehow knowing the power of God….
Somehow knowing the power of God!
Still…it covered me!
Now; unable to lift my voice.
In hell, I was unable to lift my voice.
Oh, hear my faint cry!

Through the darkest of black, God heard my impotent voice!
He overturned the darkest…with His voice.
Delivered me from the place of the underworld!

I hear  the joyful sound…
Jesus saves, Jesus saves!
I break forth in praise!
God has delivered my soul.
What a change in my life!
I break forth in praise!
I break forth in praise!

Now; unable to lift my voice.
Near hell, I was unable to lift my voice.
Oh, hear my faint cry!

Through the darkest of black, God heard my impotent voice!
I died a physical death…prepared for the underworld!
He delivered me from the place of the underworld!

I hear the joyful sound…
Jesus saves, Jesus saves!
I break forth in praise!
God has delivered my soul.
What a change in my life!
I break forth in praise!

Wisdom – By Sara Teasdale

Wisdom

When I have ceased to break my wings
Against the faultiness of things,
And learned that compromises wait
Behind each hardly opened gate,
When I can look Life in the eyes,
Grown calm and very coldly wise,
Life will have given me the Truth,
And taken in exchange — my youth.
