I know the valley is before me,
there’s nothing for me to fear
alone I’ll walk death’s path
but, God promises to be near.
His love shall be my comfort,
His strength will get me through
on the other side of the shadow
His light shines bright and true.
I will go to sleep in darkness,
awake to find eternal peace
His glory will bring me happiness
my joy will never end or cease.
The shadow looms ahead of me,
in a future time that is unknown
but, I haven’t anything to fear . . .
for, I’ll just be going home!
~~~~~~~~
“Yea, though I walk through the valley
of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil: for thou art with me;
thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.”

Love your post, my Wife asked if that was the poem you were going to write for me, I said I don’t think so but it sure fits the bill. That is an awesome poem.

No, this is not the one . . . I love Psalm 23 and have written many poems as I have studied it, gleaming out of it every wonderful promise! And, yes it does fit the bill and so when I posted it I did think of you and prayed that it would bless you especially. I am still working on yours . . . worked on it for four hours yesterday . . . so it’s coming along but I want it to be perfect, just like you are . . . right Nita??? 🙂 ~ Blessings and abundant prayers for you today Greg ~
