I thought I could fly
when I fell.
I thought I could heal
when broken.
Through His wings,
I flew.
By His hand,
I healed.
Miserable and forgotten,
No! Not I!
Loved and by Him spoken
for, tis I!
Rain may come down
and drench the land.
But my home is dry
built on rock, not sand.
Where are you, darkness?
I see you flee.
Up beyond the mountain,
past the shimmering sea.
He’s coming soon.
You’ve heard the call.
Rocks will fall down,
your demise.
There’s nowhere you can hide.
nowhere.
(NIV) 1 Corinthians 15:55, “Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?”

Just before I read this, I was reading a book with quotes by Amy Carmichael. One section inspired me to write a poem myself!
