Because I Put My Faith in You

This poem is about my relationship with my Love

Because I Put My Faith in You

When the world around me

May be like a ship without a sail or compass true

Without purpose and doomed to sink in life’s tragic storm

I put my faith in You.

 

If my heart lay

Scattered and broken in many pieces on the ground

My tears are dried, and my heart begins to mend like new

When I put my faith in You.

 

I gave You my heart

I gave You my love so true

I gave You everything

The hour I put my faith in You.

 

You gave me the promise of Your heart and everlasting love,

Peace of heart and comfort in my cheerless and dismal moments

A happier, fuller life too

A most precious gift in return for putting my faith in You.

 

Even when things don’t seem to be going the way I wish

I just smile calmly; worry not my friend

Because I know with absolute doubt, You have a better plan

So now I put my faith in You.

 

I was a child, my faith feeble and incomplete

Unsure and unstable on my feet-like a baby new

Now I have put away my childhood fears

Because I put my faith in You.

 

I knew not where my life was bound

The path I was to tread unclear to me, but now

No more; my way is made apparent, my dreams coming true

Ever since I put my faith in You.
