Good Afternoon Church Poem by Gabriel Maybank

Good afternoon church, May I speak for a minute?
God’s in my heart and pressing hard on my spirit.
My mind says be quiet but my mouth won’t listen.
You need to hear the word that my God is delivering.

Good afternoon church, I know I only said a minute.
I’ve been going through some things
And wondering if God has been in it.
‘Cuz I never felt a love so strong, that even when I’m wrong
He puts his hand upon my shoulder and says “Come on.”

Yea though I walk through the valley
How could I move mountains walking through these dark alleys?
But if you think about it that’s where they are.
I’m searching for the light at the end of the tunnel
And your water I yearn for.

Life is not promised and death is trying to find me.
Free my spirit Lord because these demons are trying to
Bind me and blind me.

But I don’t see it with my own eyes
Or walk with my own feet, You show me.
Every time I think I’m going to fall you hold me.
Fire is burning at my toes.
Struggle is a life-long battle even when you get old.
A lot of things are unknown,
But in God we trust.
Almighty Alpha and Omega God lives in us.
God lives in us.
