Joy in the Mourning
Poetry Room: General

To Be A Lighthouse...

To stand rock-solid
           through the sun and storm ...
To be there steadfastly
           someone to warn ...
To face each icy onslaught
           heart at rest ...
(I can’t control the waves
           but He knows best) ...
To stand through winds of mutiny
           unfazed ...
To point my finger skyward
           when I’m praised ...
To know there is no greater joy than grace
           received and shared ...
I take my place
           And let the Life-Light shine through me.
