A Gentle Hand

by Dave Mudford © 2024

When pain crushes
my fragile broken heart,
bruised by disappointment
grief tearing me apart;
A gentle hand of kindness
comes to comfort me.

When lost in my confusion
with doubts closing in,
dwelling in dark shadows
with thoughts in a spin;
A gentle hand of grace
comes to restore me.

When stained by self
unworthy and alone,
with my garment scarlet
when all my hope is blown;
A gentle hand of mercy
comes and healeth me.

When standing in God's presence
forgiven and set free,
beloved of the Father
secure, falling to my knee;
A scarred hand of strength
comes and guides me - home!
