depths of glory

when you enter the depths
of despair
and you keep going deeper
fearing the bottom, fearing eternity

when you cry
out
and there's no answer
you need

when you fear
the end
and no end

when thoughts assail
attack
dissemble
your mind

hold on to the one
who will never let go

when your head goes under
know you will
look up

when you light flickers
know you will
alight again

when you lose your grip

                           don't!




hold on
cling

grind your teeth
clench your fists
sob

hold on to Him.

hold on to Him
for he will                    
                               never
                                                                   never
                                                                                                              never

                                                                              
                                                      

                                                                 let go.
