LIGHTHOUSE

Let me be your lighthouse,
in the dark and stormy night.
Let me be a beacon to your soul,
the one to hold the everlasting light.
Although the storm is raging,
and there is no port in sight.
Let me be the one to say,
don't let go, just hold on tight.
For the Lord will save you,
He will be your gallant knight.
He will save your drowning soul,
Satan's hostile sea won't win the fight.
Because Jesus Christ will calm the sea,
and welcome you into His awesome light.

Erie, A wonderful reminder of a loving Savior who whispers to us, I will never leave thee nor forsake thee! Your imagery is vibrant, your message is clear. Well Done!

Oh that we would all say from the heart to the Lord, Let me be Your Lighthouse!  How greatly the world is in need of the Light which we can share, and reflect--may we take this prayer personally and make it our own.  God Bless you,  David

And the other will save your soul.

Dear erieval, One of my favorites is the lighthouse. It holds beacon to so many things scriptual. This is wonderfully done. To guide those to the Lord is of the greatest Love for him.
Sincerely,
Rwood

I've been missing in action for a while and someone asked me to write a poem about a lighthouse they could use in their minestry so I wrote and posted one yesterday totally unaware of your work here.  Today, I feel so very redfaced after coming to this wonderful
Piece you'd posted.  Please forgive me for the oversight.  I'd never have posted mine had I been aware of this, in fact, I'd have requested permission to send yours instead.

Dear Sandgrain,
These things happen, please do not feel bad, for I am sure that the lighthouse is a very popular thing to write about. Thank you for thinking of my feelings. God bless.
Love,
Erie
