![Snow\-covered mountains above dark trees, with the printed poem I’m Standing\.](<https://remnant.truechristian.church/images/articles/cba5e203-d81e-40a3-a3be-690c4de11399-1.jpg>)

**I’m standing, Lord;  
There is a mist that blinds my sight\.  
Steep jagged rocks, front, left and right,  
Lower, dim, gigantic, in the night\.  
Where is the way?**

**I’m standing, Lord;  
The black rock hems me in behind\.  
Above my head a moaning wind  
Chills and oppresses heart and mind\.  
I am afraid\!**

**He answered me, and on His face  
A look ineffable of grace,  
Of perfect, understanding love,  
Which all my murmuring did remove\.**

**I’m standing, Lord;  
Since Thou hast spoken, Lord, I see  
Thou hast beset – these rocks are Thee\!  
And, since Thy love encloses me,  
I stand and sing\.**
