A Renewed Life

A poem about returning to God

Edited by Livingston County Writers & Critics Support Group

While searching for my loss
I saw a refugee dear
Walking down the street
The music I could hear

My heart was racing as I went
The pace my steps did set
Remembering how long ago my heart to Jesus wept

Entering the sanctuary
I looked around in awe
The picture of Jesus hung sweetly on the wall

More sounds I heard that were a delight
The preacher was preaching, telling what was right

Memories were haunting me
My heart had lost its glow
I was directed to the past and to the things I know

My life is not over
I have returned
I’m on a solid foundation
At last, at last, I have learned!
