Poem by Patricia Usiobafo, Women’s Apostolic Alliance member
Death and destruction; civil unrest
Natural disasters, pandemics , pestilence
Souls crying out for justice amidst blind hatred and fear
The world is in chaos, the last days are here
Lives are cut short by euthanasia and abortion
Man’s greed and abhorrent cruelty evident in every nation
Families forced from war torn nations into refugee camps
Children’s innocence robbed, while they plead with outstretched hands
And yet amidst the darkness, hate and violence
God You are here, right here beside us
Offering hope, truth, a future and destiny
Love, comfort, peace, and rest with You in eternity
You are The Way, The Truth and The Life
The only answer to all of this strife
Only You God can change men’s hearts
Forgive them their sins, set them apart
You alone have what humanity cries out for
Only You can judge righteously, forgive and restore
I know beyond any doubt, all of this is true
Because I found my life, healing and identity in You
You restore my soul, heal my body, remind me whose I am
You are Saviour, Lord, Redeemer, Son of God, Son of man .
