He Comforts Me

He Comforts Me

Laurie Glass, Guest Writer/Poet

When tears begin to fall

From deep inside of me,

Still, comfort I can find

That comes from only He.

When I am overwhelmed

With sadness that I feel,

I sense His loving touch

His comfort is so real.

When weary I become

And feel I’m on my own,

I seek His holy face,

And I feel less alone.

No matter what it is,

Although it seems too much,

I still can go to Him,

And I can feel His touch.

There is no other place

This comfort can be found,

It only comes from Him

And yet it still abounds. 

He watches over me,

As one of His dear sheep,

I’m always in His view,

He never is asleep.

What happens matters not,
He always will be there,
His comfort will be mine,
I’ll never lose His care.
