Love and Light

How can I complain,
about the trials that come,
about the thunder or the rain,
when all my loneliness is done.
 
Whatever may unfold,
I can greet it with a smile,
because in my heart your love I hold,
it carries me through mile after mile.
 
The tears I once shed,
seem distant and foreign,
since the prayer that I said,
has let me let you in.
 
In moments of crisis and uncertainty,
when justice is far from my view,
all it takes is your love to remind me,
that the world has become brand new.
 
Now I walk bravely with my head held high,
now I am grateful for the ground beneath my feet,
now when there is a dark and gloomy sky,
I still feel safe and complete.
 
Let the thorns pierce my skin,
let the storms rage through,
let the emotions rumble within,
as long as I have you to turn to.
 
There is no longer a plead to make,
as I have been fulfilled,
by a love that will never shake,
a love that God mercifully willed.
