I have seen <br />The lightening flashing. <br />I have heard <br />The thunder roll. <br />But nothing from this life <br />Shall ever conquer my soul. <br /> <br />I've felt chilly rains pouring <br />Its waters flowing <br />Down my aching back. <br />I've had to walk <br />In mud knee deep <br />But I kept my focus in tack. <br /> <br />These task of life <br />Truly, was not easy <br />Not to the naked eye. <br />No one knew <br />God was with me <br />Just walking by my side. <br /> <br />The three Hebrew Boys <br />While in a fiery furnance <br />Proclaimed that they knew it. <br />The king and guards found it out <br />For when heat left the fire <br />Everybody knew God blew it. <br /> <br />Now if you think <br />You are alone. <br />Just look from side to side <br />And know that God is with you. <br />No matter how hard, <br />To you, you strive. <br /> <br />No this race is not given <br />To the swift <br />Neither to the strong. <br />But to the one <br />Who holds out to the end. <br />For this journey is just a song.<br /><br />Cecelia Weir<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/just-a-song/
