Shadows and Light

Of nights that scream

in longing's cruel howl,

and day's spent strolling avenues

where the light never warms,

my soul has wandered

without hope

beyond a second's notion

that my life

was bereft of blessing.

 

Until my Lord

gave me faith's candle,

shining with His salvation,

gracing every shadow and step.
