‘Though my flesh and my heart fail, God is the strength of my heart and my Portion forever’. Ps. 73:26.

Autumn Thoughts

I’m grateful, Lord
through all the years the strength’s been there:
For every need, its counterpart.

These latter days
I know it’s ‘Autumn’, with ‘frost’ to come
and needs as yet unknown.

But You’re my Strength,
just as before, for every need
that’s round the bend.

So failing flesh
sounds no alarms, for You’ll be there,
My Portion !
