(Finding The Shelter)
"I have become similar to a pelican of the wilderness; I have become like an owl of the waste places.I lie awake, I have become like a lonely bird on a housetop."My enemies have reproached me all day long; Those who deride me have used my name as a curse” (Psalm 102:6-8)
"The bird also has found a house, And the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, Even Thine altars, O YHWH of hosts, My King and my God” Psalm 84: 3-
--
In Peacock- Hill country was I born,
Constituted with the boastful nature,
Not having sayings and doings pure!
God turns me a lonely bird on roof,
Living as pelican of the wilderness sure,
Like one hidden owl in waste place;
All because the enemies chase away.
--
“Lord, I have not any place to dwell,
Except the two altars of Thee well,
Let me make nest laying my kids,
On the altars in Your House solid.
What resting shelter I have liked!,
Enjoying Thy riches eternal divine.
