"Without Him"

Today I decided to be a poet. That's right, Cameron Hesson wanted to be as great as Shel Silverstein. I woke up this morning with these words in my head, words that only God could've given me. I want to share these very words with you. Enjoy.

If it weren't for God's love
I'd be nothing
If it weren't for your mercy, Oh God
My life would have no purpose
Apart from you I'm empty
When I feel your presence
That's when your grace becomes known
The sudden warmth and comfort
let's me know, I was never alone
In the midst of darkness
I become frightened
It's your truth that sets me free
"The LORD is my light and my salvation;
Whom shall I fear?"
When you are beside me
I fear no more
Tell me I'm wrong
Assure me that I'm right
Whatever you may say
The Lord is my life.
