Frank McEleny Poems

Give me shelter from the storm
I'm so cold please keep me warm
Let me cry, cry upon
Cry upon your shoulder
...

The earth is filled with the glory of God
As the waters cover the sea
He is the one who came and died for you
He is the one who has set you free
...

Cause Your face to shine upon us
Let your light shine in the dark
Cause your face to shine upon us
The jackals howl and the dogs they bark
...

I will bless the Lord at all times
My souls shall make its boast in thee
I will bless the Lord at all times
For He's the one who came and set me free
...

My heart is shredded, it lies in pieces
Think, I must think
Here comes the hammer, it cannot miss
The blow, and now I shrink
...

My peace is like a river
Winding slowly to the sea
My heart is deeper than the ocean
Filled with love He gave to me
...

There is a red sky in the morning
And its calling you and me
It is a heavenly warning
Of just how things are going to be
...

Hope and majesty surround you
You are covered by impenetrable light
You stretch out the heavens like a curtain
And you separate the day from the night
...

We are filled with the oil of gladness
It covers my brothers and I
For joy has overcome sadness
As the glory of God fills the sky
...

If I began to cry
The tears would never end
If I lowered my guard
Then how could I defend?
...
