A Quiet Confidence Poem by Rita Umali

out of darkness
you called me
you set free
my crippled heart
my broken soul


a midst the storm
you put me
high above
the clouds
and granted me
peace and joy
against the turmoil
of the world's woe


you healed the nightmares
of the past
made whole my life
created a new creation
a beautiful one


Lord you put new hope
in my heart
my spirit drowned
in your love
and grace


with a new day
i face
not with fear
nor pride
but just a quiet
confidence
in my God
Jesus
who will strengthen me
all throughout
