Just a Word

Just a word

Nothing more, nothing less

Can wield the power of a mighty sword

It can defend or it can destroy

It can foster hope or it can bring despair

It can give life or it can take it

With just a word the stars were hung

The sun was given it’s light

The world was set into motion

And the heavens were formed from dust

Just a word

Nothing more, nothing less

Holds a power unrealized

Tossed around like a wave of the sea

Given not a second thought

Of themselves insignificant

But given life by the meaning assigned

Just a word

Nothing more, nothing less

Just a word

Security

When the waves crash and the thunder pierces my ears

My soul is quiet, my mind is still

Under these Wings I am safe

I will not be moved

When the fire rages and takes the breath from my lungs

I am filled with peace

This Water is my life

I will not be moved

 Unlike a leaf that is tossed about by the slightest of breeze

On this Rock I stand firm

 my feet are secure

 I will not be moved.

 And when death comes like a thief in the night

My heart will not fear

My soul has been bought

And it cannot be moved.
