Walk in Me

"Chemin montant" Alfred Sisley, 1870
“Chemin montant”
Alfred Sisley, 1870

“As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him” Colossians 2:6 KJV

Walk in Me
Over valleys of streams
And mossy lea ever soft
Receiving footsteps
Caressing weariness
Bidding confidence
Harboring pale sunlight
Though moor and fen-misted
Pleasant places where sweet
Melodies linger upon the breeze.

Walk in Me
Then onto crags
Of sharp stone
Cutting, tearing, reminding
That the path
To perfection is
Multifaceted and sometimes
We bleed and we cry
But we are to remember
That in our outlook
All is focused
Above temporal pain
And the pricks from thorns
Upon our heads
Are only to remind us we
Are in the Lamb’s gait
And not steps behind.

That is blessing enough.
