Gone are the things that I

once knew...

old, worn, and comfortable,

like dad's old shoes.

 

Some things I cherish.

Some things still sting.

 

But truly the most amazing thing—

 

Gone are my burdens

now left

with the Lord.

 

His peace, His comfort,

my shield,

my sword.

 

He's gently cut out

and replaced

with His love,

all things that hinder

my journey above.

 

The path has been difficult,

rocky, and steep,

but there's no other love

that runs so deep.

 

The life I now live

on the cross

He did pay.

 

And He set my sights

on a brand new day.

 

I've never regretted

the things I've let go

His love is worth

all this pain down below,

 

And He has replaced

with His peace of mind all of the things

I've left behind. *
