Take it to Jesus

Take it to Jesus

 

A heavy weight,

A slow gait.

Moving at a slow pace,

Feeling out of place.

 

A bleeding heart,

A calling through the dark.

Unfolding your cares,

Take it to Jesus in prayer.

 

A soul cries,

A new hope to rise.

Feeble attempts to handle things

Only fail as anguish it brings.

 

A light in the way,

A comforting stay.

Surrendering your will,

Take it to Jesus in the still.

 

A bowed heart in truth,

A hope to get through.

The Savior knows your name,

As for you He came.

 

A love forever true,

A merciful hand over all you do.

So, when your life is in pieces,

Take it to Jesus.

"A love forever true,
A merciful hand over all you do.
So, when your life is in pieces,
Take it to Jesus."

Obviously there was a religious aspect in this poem but not just. I liked the way you chose the rhyming. Quite dark and sad in the middle but hopeful towards the end. Thanks for sharing
