His Voice
There sat a girl, alone in her room,
her face showed a dismal shadowy gloom.
She did not understand why her soul seemed to leave.
She did not know why her heart had to greave.
Did her Saviour leave her heart?
Did He suddenly depart?
She began to pray,
then she knew the Lord had not gone away.
She had turned away from Him.
She had let her light grow dim.
Then she began, out of joy, to cry,
for she could now understand the reason why.
The Lord had never stopped speaking,
but for His voice, she had stopped seeking.
