Beneath

 

BENEATH

Beneath the surface of the pond

Among the murky depths

Unseen bodies live a life

Of permanent unrest

The surface is a joyous place

Sunlight streams across

But the deeper that you go

Darkness is the boss.

What can cheer these zombies up

Do they crave the light

Shining on their troubled walk

And their unseen plight

Surely there is something there

An answer to their gloom

If they rose up to the top

They would erupt in bloom.

So let the light of Christ come in

Into your darkest place

Where the doors are tightly shut

Where you won't show your face

There is nothing that you are

That can't be sorted out

Trust Him with your past and fears

He knows what you're about.
