Forgotten of the world, arise,
For He will always hear your cries.
No matter what your circumstance,
You will receive a second chance
To speak your piece.  You will be heard.
Attention given to each word.
Though multitudes may pass you by,
Our God will listen and supply
Your daily needs, your future goal.
He will bless and make you whole.
The promises that mankind gives
Are only valid while he lives,
But promises from God will last
Forevermore and even past!

Trillium,

This is a wonderful promise from God that certainly applies in a world that vies for attention.  You know what, I think God reads all of your poems as well.  He probably reads them before you get them.......  Your words lifted my heart.   Thank you, Bob <><

This glorious poem echoed my prayers of this morning..and confirmed His ever loving care and that I have no need for fear, for my loving Father will care for me! Thank you. Ellie

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

This reminded me of the Lord's Prayer.

"I am not now that which I have been."
