Melodies Of The Heart Poem by Qiniso Mogale

Having loved and having been loved
Having for no apparent reason been hated
Having fought and won many battles
Having survived many trials and tribulations
Having cried and dried many tears
Having escaped the attacks of many enemies
My heart rejoices and sings joyfully
There are melodies in my heart.

My heart celebrates victories
Enemies are astounded
They dug graves for me which in turn swallowed them
They laid traps for me which in turn caught them
They planned and schemed for my destruction but they were the ones destroyed
My heart sings joyfully
Melodies of the heart.

No weapon formed against those in Christ prospers
God has declared that He will fight against those who fight us
Christ has promised never to leave or forsake us
That's why my heart sings joyfully
Melodies of the heart.
