THE
LIGHTHOUSE
By Dean Beaty

We’re called to
be a lighthouse, along some rock strewn bay.
Helping guide
some traveler safely on his way.
What greater task
on earth, to help a wandering one.
Trusting that on
God’s great love, he’ll call before life’s done.
Don’t be a faulty
lighthouse, whose light shines now and then.
To shine your
light full faithfully will take some discipline.
With God’s help
and guidance, your beacon will not fail.
In keeping others
off the rocks, we surely will prevail.
Jesus is our
lighthouse along the narrow road.
He strengthens,
guides and cheers, and helps us with our load.
His light is
never failing, though storms at Him are hurled.
We trust in Him
because He is the true “Light of the World.”
