God Picks Me Up Poem by Obed dela Cruz
God Picks Me Up
For my God, family, and nation.
When I am down and am filled with troubles,
Torments, terrors, destruction, and rejection
People freely strikes my heart with verbal sword
I look up, close my eyes, quietly withdraw
Listen to nature’s sound, weep in silence.
Going to a great and deep battle
With enemies in front, rear, right, and left
Nowhere to escape, nothing to do but fight
When the battle blood reaches in the skies
Like eagle I lost my feathers and wings
I fall down, my body becomes tired
Suddenly, there’s Jesus who picks me up.
My heart jumps with joy, my eyes give tears of joy
God picks me up and washes all dirt and mud
He covers me in His warm great feathers
His arms comfortably embraces me
He calls me His son, I call Him FATHER.
He’s my life and my everything
At times, I am lost and fallen again
But He picks me up again and again
How I love the Supreme One forever

Well done, Obed. I'm originally from the Philippines. Do you have facebook? Look me up.
Another show of faith in this piece of work. I'm working on the same theme but in different manner of thought. I do believed that when someone is down and was able to recover through his initiative, he was not alone, there was somebody who helped him back on his feet.Thanks...
Although I do not see eye to eye with you as far as religious beliefs go, I do admire your passion for your God. I do admire your passion for the one you believe to be the Supreme Being. Therefore, I admire the passion that was etched into this poem for it is evident that you poured your soul into this. Well done, Obed.10/10

Yeah! God offers the ultimate protection even without us realising it.
