For there is a reason for living
For my life the Lord keeps giving
But it feels as if I need a reason
To keep on going in this season
I look to the world for guidance
But all I have found is silence
The things of this world do not fulfill
One day health will fall downhill
When all the money and stones are dust
When all the silver and gold are rust
What is my reason for living
An empty life feels fitting
But God has something more
My path to hell is gone
He has settled the score
My life begins a new dawn
The veil between now undrawn
Freedom he has given me
A beautiful purpose from thee
I am forgiven no matter my flaws
All of this world aside I must toss
This new life I must share
To all others who live in despair
For your life is not a loss
Behold the man upon a cross
This poem is inspired by Psalm 57:2 which says β€œI cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills his purpose for me”
