I Will Not Be Shaken

Winds pull and tug

The earth trembles and shakes

Sleet stings and soaks

I sway, I stumble

Scraped knees

Bleeding hands

Streaming tears

Crushed heart

I can’t stand alone

Not by myself

But with His help

I will not be shaken

Beaten, battered and bruised

Attacked and under fire

I’m standing firm

I will not be shaken

I refuse to lose my faith

I’m clinging to my hope

I’ll stand till my strength is gone

But it won’t last long

Agonizing pain steals my breath

Paralyzed, I cry for help

Overcome the foe

Open up the door

Shield my heart

Heal my wounds

Make me strong

Lift me up

They tear at my heart

And claw at my soul

Pressed to my knees

I still won’t be shaken

Doubts assault my walls

Worries bypass defenses

Questions shake confidence

I will not be shaken

Help me, LORD!

I’m trembling, shaking

My strength is weak

I’m on the urge of shattering

I will not be shaken

He holds my hand

I will not stand down

Victory is His

 I will not lose my faith

Or stumble to the ground

He stands beside me

Defender of the weak

I will not be shaken

I will not stand down

With the LORD’s help

I will hold my ground

-To God be the glory. Reminiscent of Psalm 62
