In Her Father’s Arms

God Bless all the young girls walking on the other road...Bring them all away from harm...bring them all back to their Fathers's arms


She has a plan
but not your everyday one
just some other one...
Lonely highway
she extends a thumb
unconsciously in danger
of just anyone
Streaming lights
blurring visions
cars in passing
revving rhythms
Scattered souls
along her way
night is night
Yes, even her days...
Traveling wayward
with searching eyes
Bravely somehow
she walks her stride
Yellow and white
are the lines of her life
hoping someday
she’ll be somebody’s wife
Her goal is tomorrow
somehow, someway
Then she met her man,
Who changed her days
No one saw Him
But she claimed His name
Her Light finally rose
on a street called Praise
It was Him she said
who she'll always raise
Back home she went
away from harm
Back home again
In her Father’s arms!

Striking out alone thumb extended not knowing the dangers, nights became her days.....WOW been there and it was such a wonderful sunrise indeed when I came home to his arms, back home. Very well done!

Hugs warmly given
praise deserving
Well done my new friend!

Lovely. Reconciled with our heavenly Father at a young age is a blessing indeed. I was 32 when I returned home holding the hand of my heavenly Father. Excellent verse.
