Poems to Overcome Fear in Very Difficult Times​

Drifting

Drifting through valleys
of fear in my mind,
Drifting past mountains
that I could not climb.
Praying for Jesus
to help me unwind,
Praying for peace
and calm so sublime.

Then calmness came over me
and right then I knew,
That Jesus had touched me
as He will touch you.
Jesus had come as
a Savior in the night.
Praise the Lord!
He brought me Light!

Now I’m drifting with Jesus
by valleys of fear,
Over mountains of trouble
that had been so near.
With Jesus to guide me
and show me the way,
I’ll conquer all problems
that might come today.

Phil Herron, June 1980
