If you do not go with me,
Do not send me up from here.
I cannot bear to go alone.
I need your hand to bring me home.
If you do not go with me,
Do not send me from this place.
Be the lamp who guides my feet,
Through laughter and the bittersweet.
If you do not go with me,
Do not send me from your side.
Carry me, or hold my hand.
Be the footprints in the sand.
If you do not go with me,
Do not send me up from here.
I cannot do this on my own.
God, please, don’t make me go alone.

Moses…you…and me…let us all go only with God! Or if not with Him then not go, just sit together, the great and the small, and wait for the One who signifies us to gesture.
He has the Name Emmanuel for a reason…and you have highlighted it well, Sis

Hi Rachale, thanks for stopping by and reading my stuff. I love your writings so filled with love and kindness. I am completely the opposite in my writings, commonsense, practical, real life stuff that you see and hear everyday. Good or bad I write what I feel at the time, is it readable, does it have merit, I leave that to others to comment. Your writings are heartfelt and have a meaning that adds to your life, good stuff. Cheers Kev
