My Faith In You Poem by Jonathan Goldman a.k.a JGthepoet

Why must I have the pain, L-rd?
Why must YOU again test me?
Is not my Faith in YOU, L-rd
There for YOU to see?

Whilst writing poetry to YOU
The pain dost cease awhile,
As thoughts of love for YOU, L-rd,
Makes me want to smile.

At four thirty in the morning,
When I should be asleep,
My pen glides on the paper,
These words to YOU will not keep.

You know what’s in my Mind, L-rd,
Why in Poetry must I them write?
Lest they just remain hidden
And from others be out of sight.

My Faith in YOU’s enduring,
I know YOU’ll heal my pain,
As poetry I write to YOU, L-rd,
This Morn, and again, and again.
