A Lady In Waiting Poem by Linda Ray Center

A Lady in Waiting

Patiently, she waits for her beloved King.
He marched into battle to fight for her,
Knowing His sacrifice was worth it all.
Her heart is not troubled. His Word is Truth.

He promised she would not be forgotten.
Three days later, He conquers the darkness.
She participates in His victory.
He's coming back, to take her to Himself.

True love always waits, and it always wins.
She cries out, "How great are Your works, O Lord! "
She stops briefly to listen for her name,
Believing her love will quickly return

Her heart is overjoyed, as she whispers,
"Here I am my love. I have been waiting."
