The Shadow of Death

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

He told them that He would be back,

But they were lost in grief.

Those words of promise brought to them

No comfort or relief.

 

Those who had lived closest to Him,

Had never understood

That He was truly born of God

And His promise was good.

 

They spent that Sabbath day and night,

In the pain of their grief.

They walked in the shadow of death,

In fear, and not belief.

 

Psalm 23:4

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
