willows weep and yet
how strong the branches
that hold their tears
Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows . . .
Isaiah 53: 4a (KJV)

Arise for our help,
and redeem us for thy mercies’ sake.
Psalm 44: 26
From the post for Psalm 44 at POEMS FROM PSALMS AND NATURE.
We began Easter And Spring Poetry in March 2014. This afternoon, I began reviewing the archives and will share a few poems and Bible verses in posts this Lent and Easter season. And I will continue with verses from the Psalms. As a writer, it is interesting to see the journey of poems through the years. One post at a time, work grows. There are many practice poems, and sometimes I revise. I also see themes over time and can sometimes create a sequence of poems. Always a work in progress.

Let thy mercy,
O LORD,
be upon us,
according as
we hope in thee.
