PEACE...

PEACE...

Peacefully the night slips away with
each drop of morning dew..
I am wakened by the filtered morning
light as it peeks it's way through..

Even earlier, as the night descends its 
darkness, it's shadows fade..
My dreams drift away like a 
cloud swept images in a parade..

My heart is burdened, my spirit weeps..
The what if's, the why nots, the quiet
room is loud with guilt, my soul 
no longer wants to keep..

I whisper quietly ..
"Are you here Lord?"
His presence fills the room like cloth ripped through a sword..

Take my burdened soul, my restless spirit,
my early morning tears..
Swiftly the crowded thoughts vanish..
The burdens are lifted,
no longer do I fear..

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”  John 14.27
