I am alone there, here with you

Beneath God’s heaven, skies so blue

Where storms blow free on silent night

And stars all shine their inky light.


I am alone there, here with you

As earth doth shake with nature true

And storm and gales do mighty rage

In deep snow trudged man of age.


I am alone there here with you

On this cold night of Steven true

Into the snow so deep and white

Gathering wood by moon’s cold light.


I am alone there, here with you

He trod this path like very few

King told his page to hither go

And help the poor man in the snow.


I am alone there, here with y’all

As page did heed his master’s call

To gather wood as winter fuel

Though the night was cold and cruel.


I am alone there, here with thee

Huddled close beneath great tree

Man told the boy to stay in sight

Step in his steps so firm yet slight.


I am there, here with thee and King

And now my heart doth truly sing

For here at a table laid with food

I thank dear God for being so good.


Always there, here with my dear Lord!


AMEN!

Welcome to Passions, MrLeslie.  This poem hit very close to home on a current "challenge" that is up in the forums to use the phrase, "You are here, there with me...", and if you had been caught up by the challenge, why then I say...Well done!
