It looms ominously
A black cloud on the horizon
Silently it sweeps across the sky
Until there is no more light
Just a sheet of darkness and dread
You can’t look beyond it
The insurmountable mountain
The future only brings fear
Stress is a filthy rat
Gnawing at the knot of your heart
Like a stone your stomach drops to the depths
Whatever awaits you
When the sun rises up again
Whatever you fear
Know that you are never alone
“…I will never leave you nor forsake you.” Joshua 1:5 (NIV)
