PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

The Lord is a refuge for me, when I am sorely oppressed;

the Lord is a refuge in times of any trouble.

I do not walk alone in the fields of brambles and stubble,

or through broken plains obstructed by toppled rubble;

with the Lord's presence, and promise, I am in all moments blessed.

Although tormented by every sort of pest---

including skeptics' jeer and scoffers' jest---

I know that afflictions mean no more than a bubble

compared to the joy of eternally worshipful rest.
