A City on a Hill
I see you but I've lost the strength to climb
I lift my hands, but they just as quickly drop to my side
I see the spark of your light trying to lead
To the city on the hill that you want me to be
And as I'm drawn to the hilltop
I can feel all your power, your favor, your glory
You are the light of the world, making me a lamp unhindered
You are the shepherd who brings back the wayward sinner
I am a city on a hill, lit by the glory of you
I cannot be hidden because your passion shines through
I lived life with no reason and no rhyme
Because a meaning to life I just couldn't find
Then you knocked on my heart, and I started to see
A city on the hill is what you want me to be
And as I'm drawn to the hilltop
I see your love, your passion, your mercy
I wanna be lit by the glory of you
For all the world to see and know
You're the way, you're the way
And you've set me ablaze
House on a rock, this is
House on a rock, this is gorgeous and inspirational lovely thank you! Well written :D
Don't let any one shake your dream stars from your eyes, lest your soul Come away with them! -SS

This is powerful. I felt it and really lived what you were writing as I was reading this poem. It's good that you have faith in something that's so real.
