God Uses Failures!

The thought for this poem was inspired by Psalm 12.

Throughout our land the righteous fail,
The Godly men have ceased.
Both near and far the faithful fail-
Help, Lord, please hear our pleas!

The mightiest among us
Still face failure in the way.
Oh, but let not fear deter us,
God uses failures everyday.

When we stumble and lose focus
And we gaze into the storm,
God is near and He is waiting
To give shelter from all harm.

We must reach out and cry, "Saviour!"
He'll be quickly by our side-
Through our failures, if repentant,
In God's will we can abide.

So when e'er you fail and falter,
Find yourself in miry clay;
Don't relent, reach up towards Glory-
God uses failures still today!
