Looking out of my window
Shining brightly through the clouds
The sight of a new moon I see
Ready to get my feet up
Just then it stung
Thinking what it could be
Then another sting
Tried to find it
Seems it’s the thin air.

Reaching to the door
All with struggle
Darkness I see
Began then to wonder what this is
Light to darkness!
What on earth!
Groaning in pain
Called for an aid
No response, just blank

Called my mama, blank!
Called my papa, blank!
For all seemed empty and lost
Left alone I was
Cried and cried
For the more the shout,
The more the pain
Shed tears from white to red
Helplessly calling for help

Now to whom?
Just then it struck
JESUS!
Yes, JESUS
Shouted with the last breath
JESUS!
Then it happened
A bang, a war, commotion, noise
What a happening?
Darkness giving way to light
Yes! Oh! It is happening

And then, a touch!
Light, softly, soothing
Pulled me up
On my feet strong I stood
For the pains gone
All’s done just because
Jesus is come.
Through the troubles and the stumble
Don’t struggle, just remember to shout
The name JESUS!!!
