LOVE  REMAINS

After all is gone

With nothing, no one left,

The eyes just water

As I sit and stare

With every difficult breath;

This heart is broken

This heart is beyond sadness,

Much good was trampled in the streets,

A once great city, a beautiful house

A home now empty and ruined.

Sweet fellowship of family, of Church cut off

Those so loved now lost in a violent storm;

But His true love remains

Peace still rains down from above

Soaks deep within the heart and soul,

This cold heart is warmed again

Such memories, good thoughts renew

Seem very much alive;

The Lord is the same

“Yesterday, today and forever”,

The Shepherd  remains very close

From the beginning to the end

My all in all,

Through all gains, all loss

Everything thought once valued, taken away;

But always Messiah’s love remains,

I will stand strong till the end!
