Written by Cory Trout in early 2023, the poem “Yesternight” speaks of crying out unto the Lord in times of need.
YESTERNIGHT
O Lord God, you have guided my way. You said, Stay; and I stayed; You commanded me, Go; and I went.
O Lord! consider every tear That was shed yesternight, And my soul, which was Doleful in your sight.
With you there is safety. Unto you and you alone have I prayed; Therefore, help me, and help me always.
Let it be known that I have both Trusted and put my hope in the Lord. O God, show thy protection upon my life, Because I have little strength, might.
