Poetry: Look Up With Joy


Look up, dear friend,
Where eagles soar
With confidence and grace.
Look up beyond
The stormy skies
Each one of us must face.
Look up with faith
And still the doubts,
The fears and apprehension.
Look up and know
That God above
Knows all your good intentions.
Look up with joy,
With hope and trust,
Then strive to do your best
To make your life
A shining light-
And God will do the rest!
