power of choice

 choose ye this day 

whom ye will serve 

a choice we have

serve Him

or

serve the gods

on the other side

if you’re weary

and heavy laden

I will give you rest 

a choice 

to be made

the night

it’s dark

and quiet

he comes,

you know,

the evil one

with questions 

heavy, dismal

they go ‘round

and around

no rest

but

light conquers darkness

always

i can choose

to get out

i may need

to 

open up

talk about it

rethink

repent

it’s possible. 

dreading the night

it’s so quiet

but

i can kneel down

trust my questions 

to Him

put them on the shelf

in my brain

power of choice

from God

how strong it is

i can choose

to be free

in His image 

oh Lord

why the night?

I made the night

so you could trust Me

find relief in Me

see my sun

rise in the morning

can I

look for the blessing

in the night?

see the sunrise

of love

of hope

of God 

begin to shine 

in my life

i can rest 

trusting it 

to my God. 

the choice to say

i committed 

everything 

to 

my Heavenly Father 

choose 

to serve Him

to have Him

as my Saviour

to claim Him

my burden bearer

to let Him

keep the burdens

I trust

to Him

i can be free

like He wants

give it to Him

doubts

fears

hopes

dreams

the morning 

of a new day
