I stand on a foundation
Denser than concrete
Even more solid than earth
A foundation stronger than diamonds
Of undetermined worth.
I stand beside my uplifters
Who’ve supported me on my journey
Encouraging me everyday
Gibraltered with a hope and faith
In me that never gave way.
I stand beside anyone with less
Needing just a little more
To help them get through
What seems like hopeless times for them
When needs are far between and few.
I stand beside the friends and foes
Having knowledge of their innocence
When being falsely accused
Far be it from me to bear false witness
That’s who I am, that’s what I do.
If there’s any wrongdoing by
Kindred distant or close that
Has to me been made known
I will stand beside them as they
Accept the consequences and atone.
I stand here of sound, mind and body
Witnessing events never thought of
In my lifetime yet trusting His visions
Always checking myself to ensure
I’ve made the right decisions.
So where do I stand????
I stand on the wings of hope
Basking in the goodness and mercy
Of the omnipresence of Christ
Confidently seated before my enemies
Without a care or doubt in sight.
That’s where I stand.
Where do you stand?
