Frank McEleny Poems

I am but a flower
Covered by the weeds
I just want you to see me
Underneath the deeds
...

Though the waters roar and are troubled
And the mountains fall to the sea
And the earth cries out for it's filled with pains
My heart is stilled for my God reigns
...

I hear the cries of yesterday
They echo throughout my soul
They are etched upon my very face
And on my heart they have taken their toll
...

The heart that is open
Is the broken heart
He was wounded for our transgressions
By the stripes upon His back
...

I will see you in the rain
I see you in my joy and pain
As in every raindrop that falls from the skies
You are in every tear that falls from my eyes
...

It is not a pleasant thing
To walk into the wind
To walk in shades of grey
To dwell where all have sinned
...

Despite it all-Love
Despite my falls-Love
Oh Father in heaven who could foresee
The tremendous love you have for me
...

Lost and forsaken, wretched and blind
Then my Christ He came to stay
And from that day forward, I was never alone
He was always with me before His throne.
...

I know about thy grace
I simply look into the mirror
And gaze upon my face
...

I'm leaving her behind
But her soul has arisen
she's been finally released
From her earthly prison
...
