Times


I feel low, I feel besieged
Who I come to rescue me I ponder?
Dark thoughts surround me, dark times enter
This world seems lost, who is there to save?

The uncertainness kills, hopelessness creeps in
What am I supposed to do in this time of desperation?
My soul cries out in this time of oblivion
Someone please rescue me from my own prison

The pain is numbing, my heart keeps pounding
Thoughts being to attack, my soul cuts lose
Is this the day? Is this my time?
Nobody seems to hear me from my own shrine

Then when I feel the lowliness begin to empower
A chill up my spine, a hair-raising mystery
The Bible says in all the times of desperation I have the victory
The blood of Jesus has washed my slate clean

In my weakness I will rejoice
For when I am weak the Christ in me is strong
I feel calmed I feel rest assured
For the one in me is greater than the one in the world

My soul will rejoice in Christ the redeemer
Who came and conquered, he is the healer
Let the dark times come now I am least bothered
With his hand in mine, the sin in me is overpowered


I am not of this world, they have epiphanies
I am child of God, I have theophanies
May God fill my heart, may no fear enter
Though outwardly I may be dying by inwardly I am being renewed

Two months ago, she could feel a lump that was small and tough to zero in on. 2 weeks back it was big and painful, I researched and saw that if the lump pains then it is not cancerous. She was insisting that she wants to get a sonography done so that the unrest in her could be calmed. Unwillingly I conceded to her request. When she came back from the test, she was distraught because the radiologist had told her that the image was not looking good. The doctor said to get a mammography done to ascertain any suspicion that arose. The mammography showed nothing, this kind of appeased me as I jeered at her and said that all that she was feeling was in her head. She still insisted that the mammography report was incorrect. Her friends told her to meet an oncologist to rule things out. When she met the oncologist, he sided her and said that there is something wrong and that she should get...

Rejoice

Rejoice O my Soul Rejoice, always be glad You have so many reasons not to be sad Look up to the might heavens and you will see What all our Lord has done for you and me You are alive, you are breathing This is only his grace, this is his blessing He died on the cross, this was his eternal love He gave us the new covenant as he rose above The new covenant that bought in grace and mercy Without it our future would have been chancy It was his blood that wiped our heretical slate clean Oh! What a sacrifice, a crop made ready for us to glean Though the times seem unrelenting Situations around us can be unnerving Rejoice as you sing to him in songs and psalms As you worship his majesty see how is calms your qualms His never-ending grace in our life is all we need It’s a free gift for his children it’s not obtained by deed Always look us to the cross when you feel devoid of meaning Your life will change at once his light in your life will be gl...
