I’m Here

by Bill Dotson

“I’m Here,” read by Bill Dotson.

There I was in a very dark place,
Surrounded by, well, who knows.
My vision was gone, with fear on my face,
A voice said, โ€œYouโ€™re done, so it goes.โ€
But then in the dark, I heard in my mind,
โ€œThatโ€™s a lie, donโ€™t listen to fear.
Stand up, take My hand, My peace you will find.
Iโ€™m with you my child, Iโ€™m here.โ€

There I was at a crossroads in life,
Not sure of which way to go.
I looked to the left but was filled with strife,
It looked good but my Spirit said, No!
I turned to the right; how could I decide?
I needed an answer so clear.
Then I heard that Voice from deep inside,
“Go right. Iโ€™ll go with you, Iโ€™m here.”

One day, as recorded, Heavenโ€™s gates I could see.
Inside, eternity now clear.
Then I heard that Voice so familiar to me,
โ€œWelcome My child, youโ€™re here.โ€
Now, not in my mind, but before me He stood
โ€œOh, thank You, Youโ€™ve always been near.
You were with me in both the bad times and good.
And now, look at thisโ€ฆIโ€™m here!โ€
