SOJOURNER


Walking in this life with groaning pain – 

Lonely and alone 

Believed that this journey 

Would lead me to a destination

Nowhere but only destruction


The melancholic sighs

Dangers draw nigh

Darkness – the absence of light 

Any time, any kind of harm will devour me

Helpless – anything will consume me 

Only to think that my wicked nakedness only

 Excites wrath and damnation 


Nobody was there 

No one is capable of saving this decayed soul 

No hope found

The soul is in deep anguish 

The body is famished


Not until Someone lovingly sought me

Not just salvaged me

But graciously imputed righteousness

And now I have peace 

Peace that surpasses human console 


At times, still, I am prone to wander around 

Lose sight of the heavenly treasures

But I know that the One Who holds me 

Is the One who controls everything 

Knew me even in the depths of my thoughts

Chose me even from the beginning 

He will reign from eternity to eternity
