So Blessed To Know
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

By Michael P. Johnson
Other Poems by Michael P. Johnson


I’m blessed to know You’re always there

To feel Your presents near

To know the loves You have to share

Will as my King appear

 

To know Your life’s eternal stream

The Key to Heaven’s Door

The answer to my wildest dream

And oh my God much more

 

You are The Christ life’s true reward

You’re life’s eternal Tree

The Living Truth God’s Arm God’s Sword

And promised Guarantee

 

You are The One for me who died

God’s Word in flesh and bone

The Seed of glory magnified

The Lamb on Heaven’s Throne

 

You are my friend my Lord my King

My strength my faithful shield

The victory song I’ll surely to sing

When Satan’s quit the field

 

When death has been the last to die

When tears have ceased to be

I know with You I’ll rise on high

My Father’s face to see

 

I know because I’ve made my choice

Because You bore my shame

With smiling eyes with tender voice

He’ll speak my brand new name

 

Before creation’s God I’ll stand

Constant Power Divine

I’ll feel Love’s touch His warmth first hand

Pouring His Life! In mine…..

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.
