Poem: Tower of Safety

The walls of man crumble like dust.
The streets crack under restless feet.
But your tower stands against the dark.
Your name shines above the storms.
Your arms build a fortress of light.

I run when the fear claws deep.
I run when the sky splits wide.
You meet me with open gates.
You lift my breath with holy wind.
You bind my wounds with your voice.

The night may throw its stones.
The shadows may scrape and claw.
But your strong walls do not break.
Your gates do not swing apart.
Your name holds me fast and sure.

I build no shelter of my own.
I hide no hope in passing winds.
Your tower is the song I sing.
Your walls are the arms I trust.
Your strength is the roof above me.

Today I run to your strong name.
Today I lift my fears to your sky.
You are the tower that cannot fall.
You are the shield that will not break.
You are the keeper of my soul.

Poem: Strength for the Day

The hours fall heavy on my hands.
The news shouts louder than hope.
But your faithfulness rides the morning winds.
You lay strength under broken plans.
You sing courage into the hollow days.

The tempter knocks against my thoughts.
The liar builds false roads of fear.
But your voice cuts the noise to shreds.
You wrap truth around my tired mind.
You hold me steady in the storm.

I build small towers that fall down fast.
I light fires that flicker and die.
But you build with stones of peace.
You fuel the flame with endless light.
You lift the roof of my heart.

The night tries to write a darker end.
The voices try to close the way.
But your hand carves the higher road.
Your shield splits the deepest night.
Your word binds my heart to life.

Today I rest in your sure hand.
Today I plant my feet on your truth.
You are faithful when I fear.
You are strong when I fall.
You are the guard of my soul.

Poem: Built on the Rock

The winds rise wild against the walls.

But your rock holds the broken place.
Your fortress sings against the storms.
Your shield wraps around my heart.

The arrows fly across the skies.
The doubts sink deep into the ground.
But you pull me higher than the noise.
You carve a hiding place with your hand.
You build a shelter I cannot lose.

My arms grow tired of fighting winds.
My voice grows small against the roar.
But you lift my head with gentle fire.
You bend your ear to my cry.
You strengthen my soul to stand.

The rivers flood the valley roads.
The night blots out the trusted trails.
But you open doors through heavy seas.
You clear the dust from tired eyes.
You set my feet on solid ground.

Today I call you my fortress, God.
Today I run into your open gates.
You are the rock under my fear.
You are the shield over my heart.
You are the song that holds me still.

The night is filled with broken dreams.
The stars do not reveal forgotten fears.

The current is high and harsh.

I cannot trace tomorrow’s miles.
Yet you walk before my tired eyes.

You make my coming in with joy.

Today I breathe inside your shield.
Today I rise beneath your care.
You are the guard of every breath.
You are the keeper of my soul.
You are the promise that will not fail.
