And With Him Walk My Every Mile

Shall I
In this bright and sunny day
Let a tear flow from my eye?

Shall I
Let all these thoughts of gray
Rob simple joys with a silly lie?

Shall I
Persist to numb my heart
With past mistakes, release a sigh?

Shall I
Rid of regrets,  from pain depart
Aim for my goals, reach high?

I will!  And after that to smile.
I have my Lord to take my hand
And with Him walk my every mile.

"The Lord will keep you from all harm -
He will watch over your life,
the Lord will watch over your coming and going
both now and forever more."

Psalm 121 : 7-8

Cynthia, this is a stunning piece of work! it touches my heart. The walk of atonement and redemption that can only lead to joy! I particularly like the second and third stanzas.

Thank you Mary, being "bought with a Price" through the blood of Jesus, I am no longer my own ( 1 Corinthians 6:19) and knowing that I am now God' property, I know He will take care of me no matter what. This thought inspired me to write this poem about what I was and what I am now. I am happy it has blessed you, and I pray God will also touch you today in a very wonderful way.
