I'm running late when it comes to my lit class, and I'm still not really being able to focus on anything. I was reading along, if you can even call it reading... just looking at the words, really.
Something caught my attention:
"The arrows of death fly unseen at noonday..."
I was flashbacked to playing in my church choir. Sitting there... my favorite song...
You shall cross the barren desert, but you shall not die of thirst. You
shall wander far in safety though you do not know the way. You shall speak
your words in foreign lands and all will understand. You shall see the face
of God and live.
Be not afraid. I go before you always. Come follow me, and I will give
you rest.
If you pass through raging waters in the sea, you shall not drown. If
you walk amid the burning flames, you shall not be harmed. If you stand
before the pow'r of hell and death is at your side, know that I am with you
through it all.
Be not afraid. I go before you always. Come follow me, and I will give
you rest.
Blessed are your poor, for the kingdom shall be theirs. Blest are you
that weep and mourn, for one day you shall laugh. And if wicked men insult
and hate you all because of me, blessed, blessed are you!
Be not afraid. I go before you always. Come follow me, and I will give
you rest.
Maybe I will make it through all this?
