I Believe ~

I should have fainted,
under the weight of grief
I should have collapsed
under my own disbelief.

I should have blacked out,
under the depression
I should have falling down
under the oppression.

I should have lost all hope,
but instead, I found more
tendered in graciousness
from the God, I adore.

I could have fainted,
but to Jesus I cleave
I could have collapsed
but in heaven ~ I believe!

Psalm 27.13
King James Version

"I had fainted, unless I had believed
to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living."
