Though at times life may knock me down to the ground <br />Life isn’t nearly as difficult as Satan would have me to believe… <br /> <br />Things are difficult because sometimes I get tired of getting <br />Up again and making the same mistakes repeatedly… <br /> <br />God lifts me up when I am down <br />He dusts’ me off and gives me a new hope… <br /> <br />Pure and clean I stand before our Lord <br />All washed white as snow once more <br /> <br />He gives me strength to press onward <br />So I speak softly in my mind <br />I tell myself: “he is with you” <br />Even when you cannot press on alone <br /> <br />His strength is my strength <br />His hope is my hope <br />In him I shall breathe <br />And be freed from a world <br />Of doubts and fears <br />In him I shall again stand firmly <br /> <br />He lifts me up when life lets me down <br />He sends more love than my heart can hold <br />He holds my hand when I am afraid of what <br />Is just up ahead <br />Becky Laprarie © Copyright 5/16/08<br /><br />Becky LaPrarie<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/he-lifts-me-up/
