A Heartfelt Plea
My world is collapsing into the night,
Because I can’t seem to draw the Light.
My body rebels with each step that I take,
To the lessons, the books, for the soul’s own sake.
My soul cries rivers, a flood of pain,
My tears keep falling like endless rain.
A voice keeps whispering, cold and near,
“There’s no reason to cry, no reason for tears.”
But I turn to my friends, my brothers, my stand,
Who lift me gently with heart and hand.
They mend the cracks my ego defends,
They bend me softly until it bends.
I beg of you—strength, faith, and love,
Bestow as the Creator gives from above.
Bind us together, hearts into one,
Till our plea burns brighter than the sun.
Creator, hear this cry, this song—
We can’t walk alone, we can’t be strong.
But with Your love and the friends so near,
Even the night turns bright and clear.
