A Guiding Light

Respect, gratitude
All needed
Felt
With a sincere attitude.

Let love hold you safe
Feel secure
In arms
That envelope you. 

Know
In the morning
Late at night
You’re not alone.

You have
A saviour, a protector
A guiding light
Holding you.

Feel The Anger

Feel the anger 
The pressure baring down 
Grasp the lighter, redeeming saviour 
Hold him close
Move to higher ground. 

Let no one’s hatred, anger find you 
For you have a buffer, 
A wall of love all around 
You are safe
No more pressure baring down.

Hold Me Close

Hold me close, hold me tight 
Let me feel secure 
Throughout the darkest night. 

Let my tears disappear 
Feel safe in a land
Vacant of fury, anger  
And awful, awful fear. 

Hold me close, hold me tight

Kindness Borrows

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Kindness borrows heaven’s sorrows

Stores them in a safe, grace filled place

Now gone from ladened brow

A smile crosses that once saddened face

Lifting up in hopeful praise

No more to see, feel or fear

Just held with kindness

In heaven’s grace.

Clear The Cold

Clear the cold move it aside
As you open the door
To the warmth inside.

Stand at that door
Caress it’s warm, weathered face
Know it has stood brave
Against all menacing waves.

This door holds strong
With a courageous face
You can embrace the beauty
That exquisite grace.

Step inside
You are safe.

Treacherous, Dangerous

Treacherous, dangerous
Tread lightly and see
Your heart be safe
Arriving in the midst
Of a loving embrace
Tranquil
Secure all to be.

See The Depth There Inside

 

See the depth there inside
Where no one can or could ever hide.

There inside let me be the one who stands
And sees what can be not that what shouldn’t be.

See the depths close you eyes
Be at peace because here inside you can reside
Safe secure til all is right outside.

Dwell inside but first look deep inside
See the depth where it does reside.
