My Light and My Salvation is a new book of poetry from Rev. Kurt E. Reinhardt's poetry.

Lost in the Terror of the Night
by Kurt Reinhardt c. 2008

Lost in the terror of the night,
The thorns had caught me in my flight,
My bleating cries would soon be still,
The wolf was circling for the kill.

But then His voice came on the wind:
�€œMy precious Lamb, I know you�€™ve sinned,
Yet I have come to seek the lost,
To rescue them at any cost.�€?

He traced my path into the wild,
His heart set on His wayward child,
Until He found me where I lay,
His foolish sheep that went astray.

Into the thorns He stretched His arm
With boundless love, enduring harm,
His hands were cut and pierced for me
To break the snare and set me free.

With tender mercy I�€™m held fast;
Around His neck, now safe at last,
My shepherd bears me through the night
Towards the joy of dawning light.
