       Facts Received.....

Living life whilst walking dead

To Heaven’s love naive

Still total lost in Satan’s bed

I heard the voice above

 

“Come out of there, walk in the light

Witness Truth first hand

Come learn of me receive your sight

Let knowledge heal your land

 

I’ve so much love with you to share

I’ve treasures more to give

Go tell the world how much I care

So that she too may live

 

Till now she’s lost from all that’s true

Her children die in shame

Go tell the truth I’m telling you!

In Jesus’ mighty name

 

Make known to all the things you’ve heard

The things your eyes have seen

Reveal in truth my every word

Since now I’ve made you clean”

 

Much was the pain and numerous tears

Thinking at times I’d fall

But now amidst my autumn years

That voice I still recall

 

He’s called the least to work before

That’s nothing strange or new

So now I’m called I’m more than sure

He’ll show me what to do

 

So many years at Jesus feet

So many ups and downs

I’ve seen how weakness meets defeat

And strong men lose their crowns.....

About the Poet
I never wrote a word of poetry in my life. Till the day Jesus took my hand and touched my soul.....I invite your response. However most poems are not about me! Very few are. But the feed-back good, bad or indifferent is always desired. Not meant to offend, but I write about many things in many a guise. Of life, death, lost, found, saved, backsliders, new comers, repenting souls, doubting hearts, heathens, Christians, fire, water, Satan's daughter, wallowing in sin, saved, made sound walking in Light, graceful righteous. Suffering, ecstatic, bored, excited, sad, delighted, Sick, well, lame, able, living, dying, etc. etc. etc. Writing about anything, everything and everyone as the spirit leads. All meant to reveal, waken, revive, encourage, shame, help. Gladden, pick up, exalt, portrait, liberate. Again over 99% of my work is not about me. Although at times I write as though I were or am. Speaking e.g. in the first person. This is quite common even in the bible itself. Prophets speak of themselves, then God speaks, again the prophet, then God......Quite often it's difficult to distinguish whom it is that at any given time is speaking or narrating.
