ln a world where challenges and chaos sweeps my day to night, <br />there will l groan to glory in grace and ache. <br /> <br />In a time where struggles and grudges of life mourns my sorrow to death, <br />there will l groan to glory in shame and suffering. <br /> <br />In a season where pains and strains of fears cause me to rain down tears, <br />there will l groan to glory in my tears of agony and shame. <br /> <br />In a period where loneliness and dilemma expands my heart with sorrow, <br />there will l groan in glory to drink the wine of suffering and eat the meal of shame. <br /> <br />In a moment where shame becomes my meal and sufferings my meat, <br />there will l groan to glory in my tough moments and hardship. <br /> <br />At the foot of sorrow, there will l groan to glory in my shame and suffering. <br />At the root of shame, there will l groan to glory in my pains and tears. <br />At the heel of tears, there will l groan to glory in my loneliness and aloneness. <br />At the hill of pains, there will l groan to glory in my struggles and grudges. <br /> <br />In the day when life becomes too hot to face, <br />and my grief seems so tough to bear; <br />there will l groan to glory in pains and tears, <br />until my groans becomes my glory and l groan to glory.<br /><br />Valentine Mbagu<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/groan-to-glory/
