Here is a poem that I wrote on July 21st, 2019 that was inspired by Psalm 7. This was written during one of my daily devotionals through the book of Psalms.
God, you are my shelter.
Lord, you are my helper.
Salvation is like a castle’s solid foundation.
Constructed by you the king of all creation.
–
Fortified and ready to protect me from all of my sins.
No matter my evil resistance, God’s love always wins.
Let the bells of justice ring.
Break me until I am clean.
–
Forgive me for my failures.
I belong to a band of traitors.
I have wandered from where I once stood.
Grant me passage to all that is truly good.
–
I long for you, king of the mighty mountain.
Grace covers me like stones in a fountain.
Descend from the peak.
Save those who are weak.
–
This land needs you.
If only they knew.
We believe we are good, yet could not be more evil.
Like firewood bearing the rings of its initial primeval.
–
In shame we strive.
To pain we drive.
We’re made to thrive.
Make the dead alive.
With that, Godspeed and Jesus bless.
