Don't End with Sometimes
by Dave Mudford © 2023Sometimes we have no song
always our sin devours,
Sometimes we get it wrong
always His grace is ours.
Sometimes our pain is great
always His care is there,
Sometimes we feel the weight
always He helps us bear.
Sometimes we are unsure
always He does not change,
Sometimes our thoughts detour
always He will arrange.
Sometimes we praise His name
always He is worthy,
Sometimes we feel our shame
always He shares the journey.
Sometimes we feel alone
always He walks beside,
Sometimes our hope feels blown
always His strength will guide.
Sometimes we don't understand
always His truth declares,
Sometimes our prayers demand
always He guides affairs.
Sometimes our hearts are broken
always His love will heal,
Sometimes our faith is token
always His grace is real.
Sometimes is not the end
always on God depend!
Isaiah 41:10 Fear you not; for I am with you: be not dismayed; for I am your God: I will strengthen you; yes, I will help you; yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of My righteousness.
Note: The idea for this poem came after reading Kristine Stanton's excellent poem entitled "Sometimes" which can be found on ChristArt.
