Song In The Night - Poem

I trudged up a steep hill

With a burden on my back

Dark clouds hung around me

And lightening did crack

A distant thunder growled in the black sky

I started to panic and in fear I did cry

Then a voice pierced my heart

Saying, “You have to do something on your part

Look up and smile, and sing a new song

Keep singing to Me

And your soul will grow strong !”

How difficult it is to sing in such thick heavy gloom

With pain and great struggle

I sang in deep doom

And the darkness did eerily loom

Then slowly I looked up and sang new songs

But still I muttered and murmured, “Lord ! How long?”

Then slowly as time ticked its way

I saw from the sky, a Heavenly Golden Ray

The gloom slowly began to fade away

Like a dream in the night

In joy, I saw I was encased in Heavenly Light

And my song lifted to the Heavens

In power and might !!!

My darkness turned to light

I found joy and victory

In my darkest night!

Habakkuk 1:2:  How long, O LORD, must I call for help? 

Psalm 32: 7:  You are my hiding place;You will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance
