Yet, in the Middle
by Jonathan Richard Cring
The world has tribulation
On this we can agree
A fretful habitation
Is thrust on you and me
So faith begins
To sprout some fear
And nagging sins
Rob us of cheer
“Love one another”
The Master’s request
Our sister and brother
We fail at our best
The sea is raging
The wind continues to blow
Hampered by aging
Not certain where to go
And “peace be still”
The Carpenter’s command
Has lost some will
With our feeble demand
Yet in the middle
Of the festering crazy
There is always a little
If I’m not too lazy
Just a piece
Of Jesus to be
A joyous release
Of him and me
A chance to remember
A promise of December
Unto us a child is given
The answer to Earth from heaven
So be not afraid
My precious friend
All things God has made
He’s with us ’til the end.
