COMING HOME

by AIC G. Ehler

I’ve lost my way

So many times before

So dark and dank,

I couldn’t find the door.

.

Angels ministered,

But I did not listen.

The world around me,

 Oh, how it glistened!

.

Distractions abound

All around my life.

You kept calling

Through my strife.

.

Then I climbed out

From the pit of despair.

That’s where you found me,

Lifting me with care.

.

Like clay you molded me,

You turned my life around.

I once was lost,

But through grace I’m found!

.

You gave me talents

To use at your will.

Sometimes, I forget

They are yours still!

.

Discipline with works

You keep calling me.

My heart is opening up,

My spirit finally sees!

.

To come to you fully,

Not a shred left behind.

Oh, what a treasure,

Oh, what a find!

.

To know you Lord,

As I do this day.

To come even closer,

I shout hurray!

.

I called on the father

Who hears my prayers.

Just call on Him yourself,

And He will be there!
