Look Up

When we are stripped of all things known and we have nowhere to turn

When the future is uncertain and trust is all we have

Our plans destroyed, shredded and turned to dust

Is there a better future as this one looks bleak

Hoping lives will not be lost in vain; that a purpose will prevail

Feelings are raw; despair, unbelief, anxiety; you can feel it in the atmosphere

And outside continues, living and growing right before our eyes

Nature confirming the future whatever it holds

I’m surrendering with bended knee to whatever comes to pass

To outstretched arms that will protect and comfort me

Look up! Do not be afraid for you are loved.
