Fly Away Dimly

[From my 2003 journal, written October 01, 2003]


Let me be independent of what I see
And rely not on what my feelings tell me
For You have said it and so it shall be:
I will never leave nor forsake thee

May circumstances be not my gauge to say
You were with me then but not here today
Your unchanging promises will forever stay:
And surely I am with you all the way

Let me learn to trust that You are here
Whether I feel You or not, I will not fear
Your Word makes it absolutely clear:
Draw near to Me and I will draw near


[note: the title is an anagram of the first letters of this poem.]
