Jesus, I Praise Your Name!

Jesus, I Praise Your Name!



 



Jesus, may it be my passion



 and burning desire…



To praise your name



 and lift it higher!



 



May I be the example you



 wish me to be.



May it be you that others



 would see!



 



I need to spend time



with you alone.



I ask you to be the lord



 of my home.



 



 I want to daily meditate



 on your words.



Your words of life need



to be stirred.



 



 I want to tell others of your



 wonderful name.



May I not bring embarrassment



or shame.



 



 I want your goodness to fill my soul.



Help me to walk humbly



 wherever I go!



 



I need you Jesus,



more than ever before!



You bring abundant life,



and much more!



 



You’re the one that fills me completely!



You’ve blessed my life rather sweetly!



 



I lift up your name! 



It’s your life I choose!



You give unspeakable joy



 and eternal GOOD NEWS!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
