The Best Poem Of Zachary Wallace

Imprisoned Light

How I long to live my life for God,
to be a light in aworld so dark
Thatbefore I rest beneath the sod,
my life will have left some mark

In my soul is a brilliant burning fire,
and around me such evil and strife
From within comes this eager desire,
that others could see this glowing life

But I know that this earthen vessel,
with its foolishness sin and pride;
This self against which I constantly wrestle,
Is striving Gods light to hide

As with Gideon'slamps of old,
broken vessels He did make.
For the light to shine forth bold,
the clay must be riven for His sake.

So Lord I pray this vessel brake,
may your light be revealed in me
Humble and surrendered for thy sake,
that this light the world might see
