Ray Of Hope

In the midst of darkness and despair,
A ray of hope, a breath of air,
Amidst feelings of sadness, confusion and doubt,
A search through the blackness, to find a way out,
A light always shining, in front and behind,
A voice always calling, so pure and so kind,
It reaches the depths of the love in your heart,
Restoring with pleasure, desires to impart,
Redeemed and forgiven, accepted and loved,
Never forgotten, despised and unloved,
Throw off your shackles, the lies and the doubts,
So tread down the serpent and kick Satan out,
Stand firm in His glory, proudly bearing His Name,
Keep telling the story, Keep lighting the flame,
Others will wonder with awesome surprise,
At the love you have for them, the light in your eyes,
You've something they need now,
You've something to give,
So pray for them daily,
So others may live.
