Shards

Updated: Jun 18

Falling through thin ice, shards in your hand

Hand them to me

Hand them to me

Hand them to me — He says.


Water overhead, underneath, all around

I won’t let you drown

I won’t let you drown

I won’t let you drown — He says.


Take a breath, gulp it down, fill your lungs and scream

I can take it

I can take it

I can take it — He says.


I will lift you up

from the miry clay

out of the deep

out of the fray


and give you a firm place to stand

and give you a new song to sing

and when you look back you’ll see


you were not alone

you were not alone


you are not alone.


You’re with Me.
