The Wilderness [Hallowed Hiding Place]
The Wilderness [Hallowed Hiding Place]
a poem by Joel Howard
The wilderness is hallowed hiding ground for the LORD's servants
Find yourself in a mist? Maybe you'd be encouraged to consider this:
Camouflage is a gift to a warrior in battle midst
Modesty, the crown of a princess fit
Treasure is esteem'd best when hid
So a novel's rapturous chapters, unread
Lest we follow devils' temptation, this:
That sorrow, hiddenness or plague be erased
What if that is hallowed hiding place -
Heaven's carriage, hides us on our way?
