Constant Companion Poem by Angelina Pandian

I have no doubts, Lord!
In your power, mercy and might.
Your presence is everywhere,
I call to you –
Your reassuring whisper is in my ear!
My arms fail me,
My worldly strength is dust
I break, I turn, I flee –
To you for refugee,
Your strong arms surround to defend me!
You picked me from the dust
Gave riches for my rags
You wiped my tears
Healed my wounded heart!
You gave me life,
You gave me strength
From your stricken side,
Your wounded hand
Held me tight in the dark
While I climbed through the storm,
The steep mountainside.
You knew no Sin – Yet,
You also knew in your infinite wisdom
No Sin was sinful enough
To keep me away from you!
Though I walked far and wide
You were ever there waiting for me,
To turn around and reach for you,
You were there constantly beside me
Waiting for my plea.
Though my love was but a drop
You took me into your Ocean’s heart!
Dear Lord, great indeed is your love
To make me yours
You gave yourself for me
Such determination, such love
You bore all my pain
You shared all my grief,
You gave me all your joy and peace – And
Walked the whole wide world over
To bring me back home.
