SENTINEL


 

Angels are you near me

To catch me if I fall?

Do you stand guard at the entrance

Of my heart

On God’s errand and sentinel’s call?

 

Do you pave the way

And steady my feet,

And ensure my enemy’s defeat?

 

You are unsung heroes

Of every journey’s flight

You are phantoms of love

Concealed from mortal sight.

THE SERVANT

 


He who walked the dusty roads

Of Judea and Galilee,

Washed the feet of His humble servants

Who followed Him.

 

He who lowered himself

To the depths of humility,

Who once sat on godly thrones

Served the lowly humanity.

 

He who came to this earth willingly,

Divested of kingly authority

Out of the dust of Galilee

Gave us glorious immortality.

A PROMISE TO FOLLOW

 



 I promised to follow

As You promised we’d never part;

I remember, I remember

And carry You always

In the shadow of my heart.
