Walk Alone Poem by Marilyn Lott

Sometimes it feels as though
We’re alone both day and night
Our life is going nowhere
No hope we see in sight

We feel totally abandoned
No one really cares
That folks around us too busy
Our sadness we can’t share

Our hurts inside have festered
Just like a raging sore
If only someone really cared
That love was at our door

But it is, my friend, it is
For God never leaves our side
We just have to look and listen
He will always be our guide

He loves us more than ever
And when we are in need
His love is over-brimming
He has planted a tiny seed

A seed of appreciation where
We look every single night and day
At the trees, the lakes and flowers
Brilliant sunsets will show the way

We just have to open our hearts
For our sins we can atone
God is with us always
Yes, we will never walk alone!
