Poem for the Lost... By Hannah Lawrence When I see each wandering face; each one lost and misplaced, trying to find a place in the world, so lonely, and cold, no place to call home. They cry out for help each and every cold and lonely night. I search each face and begin to wonder why they have been labeled "misplaced." Why are they followed by "disgrace?" Yes, we walk through the valley of the shadow of death; each and every day just hoping to find our way. But, can we find it on our own? No, only the one that beholds the heavenly throne. Only He can lead us out of the way of astray. I can barely see the lost and wandering faces, but I can see the Heavenly Father carrying us home to forever worship Him at His throne!
If Love’s A Sea
If love’s a sea
Then I’m a pirate
Stealing hearts with whispered words,
But treasure soon lost its luster.
So I cast the broken pieces from me.
If love’s a sea,
Then I’m a sailor,
Guiding my ship to meet the wave,
Ever looking for the horizon,
Still believing love’s for me.
If love’s a sea,
Then I’m an explorer,
Taken by the deep blue beauty,
Searching for the last hidden place,
But, again humbled, wondering if love’s for me.
If love’s a sea,
Then I’m a shipwreck,
Distressed and calling for help,
Hoping to see the lighthouse,
Still praying love has need of me.
