I CLING

My friend, Pastor George Bowers, recently wrote this; it speaks to me, I hope it speaks to you.

 I Cling

George Bowers

June 2022

 

Though all else falls from weakened grasp,

Though memories fade, escape at last,

Though wealth dries up so very fast,

Unto Thy cross I cling!

 

Though others take our house and land,

Though naught remains of our grand plan,

Though we cannot this understand,

Unto Thy Word I cling!

 

Though foes release the poison dart,

Though friends forsake and swift depart,

Though family leaves and breaks our heart,

Unto Thy Church I cling!

 

Though every earthly comfort flee,

Though no good anywhere I see,

Though naught but pain remains for me,

Unto Thyself I cling!
