A Voice Of Hope

Author Unknown

From the depths of grief,
I cried "Dear Lord I am hurting so."
I could almost hear His voice
Saying, "Yes, my child, I know."

"But this is not the end", he said
There will be another day
When Heaven's portals open wide
And this world has passed away."

"I know you'll miss your loved one,
And it's hard to understand
But I know well the future,
And I will hold your hand."

I felt such peace and comfort,
Yet tears were flowing still
I prayed Him ever close to me
For His guidance, and His will

I can not say I will not cry
But hope is mine through Him
He knows the future I can't see
For tears keep vision dim.

But faith in Him is comfort
And His promises are true
The future I leave in His hands.
It is God's voice I listen to.
