Remember The Lord

Sometimes I'm praying.
I'm down on my knees.
My heart filled with sorrow,
And comfort just flees.
Sometimes I'm bewildered,
Seeking the calm.
Then I remember His feet,
And I remember His palms.

I Remember the Lord,
Who's so good to me.
He holds me so tight,
And so tenderly.
He comforts my soul;
Takes my troubles away.
He lifts my burdens;
Turns my night into day.

Sometimes I'm distressful.
Sometimes I am sad.
Sometimes I get lonely.
Sometimes things are bad.
Sometimes I'm unsettled,
With my heart open wide.
Then I remember His back,
And I remember His side.

I Remember the Lord,
Who's so good to me.
He holds me so tight,
And so tenderly.
He comforts my soul;
Takes my troubles away.
He lifts my burdens;
Turns my night into day.

So if you find yourself praying,
And you're down on your knees,
And your heart's filled with sorrow,
And your mouth's filled with pleas;
When you're lost and bewildered,
And in need of a guide,
Remember Jesus...
That's why He died.

Remember the Lord,
Who's so good to me.
He'll hold you so tight,
And so tenderly.
He'll comfort your soul;
Take your troubles away.
He'll lift your burdens;
And turn your night into day.

That is so nice! Is it a song too?

Thanks. It is a song. I've tried for years to get someone to write music for it but to no avail. I posted it for Jake to read so he will continue to turn to God in his time of trial.

Amen. Thank you for sharing

That's so sweet. Yeah I wondered if it was for him.

I've written some songs. One I put to notes with 4 part harmony too (with the help of my brother); that was a fun project. Maybe I can try to come up with something for this one.

You are more than welcome to. I have a tune. I used to sing this song all the time as a young Christian because it helped me keep my focus on God.

That's wonderful!

keep making more brother. This really spoke to me about Jesus. We definitely deserve to die without a shadow of a doubt but Jesus takes the crown and so He did it all to save us from eternal damnation and condemnation. Jesus Saves and we must recognize that we can't do everything ourselves we have to leave it to Him because pride is the number one killer (remember Satan?) Indeed Jesus is more than able and He has done it all. All glory goes to him in the end. Indeed Jesus deserves the Praise. Amen.

Thanks for your kind words. I have shared a number of poems. You can go back through this forum and find more if you are so inclined.
I'm always grateful when God uses the gifts He has given me to touch His people. Glory to God.
