NESTLING IN SALVATION

Dare I nestle in Salvation,
Lord of all Creation,
feeling secure, proud though lonely,
wary of all but You and Yours only;

Dare I claim to be separate from the world,
Your banners unfurled,
yet determined, “never forgive!”
threatening the very life You would have me live?

Without You all is bleak,
void of any clue;
thick darkness, groping to seek
threads, leading truly to Yours and to You.
