Introduction
"He shall cover thee with His feathers, and under His wings shalt thou trust." — Psalm 91:4
In Under the Wings of God, Mzee Mach offers a deeply reverent meditation on grace, human weakness, and unwavering trust in the Creator. Drawing inspiration from Psalm 91:4, the poem journeys through valleys of fear into the assurance of divine shelter, reminding readers that every hope flourishes beneath God's faithful care.
I kneel before Thy mercy-seat,
A child unworthy at Thy feet;
For all I am, and hope to be,
Is found in grace bestowed by Thee.
Without Thy love I am dying away,
Like dew before the break of day;
My strength is weak,
and my heart is frail, But Thee I seek.
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I fear no evil for darkness is spread
Thou spreadest mighty wings; To cover me with true love.
My hopes are seeds now planted in trust,
In lands which Thou dost own;
Thy hand distills the gentle rain,
Each grain is a life."
The flowers blossom in their time, Their fruits declare Sustained by Thy never-failing power; Thy perfect will, That every promise is fulfilled.
What hope have I apart from Thee,
Who formed the earth, the sky, the sea?
What faith could ever brighter shine
Than trusting in a love divine?
O keep me, Lord, till life shall cease;
My Refuge, Shepherd, Joy, and Peace.
My soul shall rest beneath Thy wings, Always safe. Always blessed.
