A Fall Farewell

My strength, my strength fades

My strength fades away

Slowly with the setting sun

The night brought its

Darkness and its storms

And the floods that came

Reflected a dull moon

Violent winds raged beneath the stars that didn't shine

Emptied of myself I fell to the ground

Slowly through the destruction

Came a single quiet voice

And the breath of His words consumed

The night and brought strength I have never felt on my own

And He held me up until I could walk again

And promised to stay by my side forever
