My Dark Hour-My Turning Page Poem by Gold Trybes

I look at the many things you have done in my life,
the many times you've saved me and raised me,
could have been dead, could have been forgotten
a long time since my birth, but you stood by me
and never let me fall nor let me be by myself



Then came the 9th of october
oblivious of what laid in wait for me
the enemy came along and was goin to steal me,
the treasure you had spent several years building.
in my pain and weaknesses, you stood by me through it all.
as i laid down thrown out unconsciously from my sit
totally blanked out and without any support,
blood soaked all over my mouth and shirt
supported and held by 911 paramedics
only one thing stood
and that which is i could have been dead save for you


In that second, i lost my bearin
couldnt remember my name nor could i remember anything
Friends and girlfriend all in total disarray
co-workers numbed cuz they'd never seen me down
everybody with a sense of pity
as i was wheeled into the waiting truck



At the hospital, i was laid on a bed
different apparatus connected to my whole body
I looked up and i could see my heart wave
pulsin up and down on the large screen.
next to me was my girlfriend and my friends
who were all i had in my dying moments
assuring me it was well.

Lookin back now, i dont know what i could have done
in that dark moment of life and death
if you had not stayed by me
and brought me back to life
i imagine the wailings, the sorrow, the grief
if for, by happenstance, i was let off the hook
Thank you Lord Jesus for bailin me out
in my most traumatic moment in life...
