Climbing the Heights

Thy secret is found in thy savior bound

Thy secret is found in thy savior bound
From where all life that lingers
Still within, endures all doubt
And sin

Though the sycophant of sin
Doth suck the life within
That life which remains
Restores thy every breath

The battle which rages
For seemlingly endless of days
Will once and for all
Come to an end

When all is made right
In the great architect’s
Delight

Though the darkness
And doubt that drag thee about
Ne’er yet seems to conquer

Lift thy head
And see in light
The hand that pulls
Thee through thy plight
Through all the darkest
Depths of night

For hope remains
Within the veins
For His blood
Tis the only life
That remains

To fill and breathe
Life into thy
Near corpselike
Form

And carry thee
Onward
And out of
The storm

-Joshua Lee Foist
