1. My Victory Song
God's love sets me free.
This is my victory song.
His grace is sufficient for me.
It is what keeps me strong.
To have faith is to defy logic. It takes faith to think positively. It takes faith to believe that there is a loving God who cares deeply about our pain. To believe in life, the universe, or yourself after numerous failures is to have courage. Faith is an act of courage. It is choosing to get up in the morning and face our fears and believe that God will help us. Faith is choosing to believe that even though we may have failed one hundred times before that we can succeed the next time.
God's love sets me free.
This is my victory song.
His grace is sufficient for me.
It is what keeps me strong.
I love this poem! So well written and very powerful.

Sometimes I feel lost in a maze of emotions,
where every direction feels like a dead-end street.
I feel so alone in my search for an answer
that I start to blame God for not meeting my needs.
This poem is the same as my feelings. Almost every day I ask myself why I must face all these trials. I have been tired of life, but I realize God has a plan for me and for everybody. I have...

"Let go," He says. "Let go."
But my heart is stubborn, so I do not let go.
"What if it hurts?" I say.
"I know it will hurt," He says.
To me, this poem seems to be a symbolic one. “I” is ego and “He” is the Almighty. He advises again and again to let ego go. But “I” doesn't want to move further even to the extent of 1mm....
How I wish to trust
In life, no questions asked,
Hanging on God's words,
Confident and relaxed,
If we all followed the beautiful simple sentiment of the poem we wouldn't have half the troubles we have.
Rest, my soul, in God's love
as you live every day.
Relax in His faithfulness
as you go along your way.
Beautiful. If we would only do this, problems solved. Reading this will set one at peace.
Across from the mountains,
A little house sits in the trees.
I'm lost in tranquility
As my soul tries to breathe.
I too was a messed up kid and left with a lot of bad memories, I am going through another dark patch in my life but this poem has reminded me that I will rise again and soar and in doing so...
I stand in a stream of madness
And take a moment to still my fears.
In the aisles of dreams and sadness,
You were there throughout the years.
Analysis of Form and Technique
There was a shepherd who fell fast asleep
So there was no one to see to his sheep.
The sheep were delighted, freedom at last
Followed the leader and ran away fast.
I love this poem. I send blessings to you, Beryl. The words mean so much for me, because I know that we are the sheep and also the shepherd. We need but recall our Spiritual Father, "God,"...
Just between you and me, Lord, I'd like to say
It's not always easy to follow Your way.
I understand what you mean by the Golden Rule--
To create a good life, there is no better tool.
Such an inspirational write...If everyone on earth followed the Light, we'd then set all the wrongs to right. Imagine if every heart was filled with love and peace. What a wonderful place the...
I felt like I was falling
Off of a very steep cliff
And I just kept on tumbling
Into an unknown abyss
I once suffered from un-forgiveness. Through time, I learned that it was poisoning my soul with bitterness. I identify with this poem very much and found the same blessed release when I...
No matter what happens in my life,
Sorrow or joy, rain or shine,
Whatever befalls me, it's all right
Because in Jesus I abide.
Looking in the Eyes of Christ, see His love for us inside.
See the beauty of our lives, in the Eyes of Christ.
In times of doubts and fears, when the world brings us to tears,
How am I supposed to trust You
When You feel so far away?
How can I grow closer to You
When it is here I am forced to stay?
I know this feeling well. I have been there a few times. In a way, I feel like that now. For me, when I was so, so lost I picked a church in my town and went one Sunday and sat in the back...
Until you've walked the road that I've trod,
and pushed your foot in my shoes,
and felt how worn out they are because of the distance I've traveled,
you can never tell me you know how I feel.
This is a very heartfelt poem! In my life's journey. I've experienced a very distressing event. Somehow, I wanted to give up on it. I've asked God for the solution to that problem. I was able...
On the ground sits a bird
That's too afraid to fly.
Beautiful wings could make it soar,
But the pain of past failure is its lonesome cry.
I love this poem. Not only is it beautifully written, but its message is wonderful. I have been going through very hard times and felt so angry and deserted by God. I lost all my faith in...
There's a girl crying alone in her room,
Wishing she could disappear from this cursed earth.
Dragging a razor blade across her scarred wrist,
She fails to see how much she is worth.
I am a 11-year-old girl on my grandma's computer. I was touched by this poem because it is at my school we have a few of problems that my principal refuses to solve such as teasing, bullying,...
You took my hand and showed me the way
when I was blinded by unfortunate fate.
You took my hand and prayed with me
while my troubles quickly faded away.
That was the best poem I have ever heard it is so sad and touching I almost cried. Thank you so much I needed that for an assignment. :)
Today is the beginning
Of God's perfect plan anew
And from here you'll grow and nurture
All the gifts inside of you
Thank you for this beautiful poem. I can truly understand and relate to the feelings and love that you have for your daughter. My daughter is my world and the very reminder of God's love for...
In this world, I want to be many things.
People tell me I can't be everything,
But I can't listen to what they say.
I can't let their envy control what I think.
You can be anything if you are rid of ego and arrogance. You can be anything if you respect elders and parents. You can be anything with perseverance.
I went in head first
Yeah, I took a dive
To the depths of insanity
To the poet, I felt like I was reading my own story! It is beautiful! So full of raw feelings that were palpable.
