Frank McEleny Poems

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
...

There is a song within my heart
Which has no words at all
It fills the deepest part of me
And floods me when I call
...

I cannot see the wind
Yet I see it bend the trees
I cannot see my God above
Yet I fall down on my knees
...

Can you see these chains, they are my call
Yet in Christ alone I stand or fall
Though forces dark oppress my soul
To serve my King, my only goal
...
