The World Should See.....
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

    The World Should See.....

The Holy Ghost brings to receive

The secrets, God has planned

To those who now The Truth believe

Who’s heart can understand

 

Can understand The Father’s love

Obedience of His Son

To understand how life above

Can here on earth be won

 

Can see Christ’s love upon the tree

That there; He could forgive

Should I to God not bend my knee?

To thank Him that I live?

 

My soul should pray my heart should cry

Perhaps to suffer more

But certainly for self to die

To enter Heaven’s Door

 

To worship God to sing His praise

Love Heaven’s Lamb divine

To serve The Lord throughout my days

If true salvation’s mine

 

God’s promises are always real

His motives ever pure

I have His love His righteous Seal

My future’s more than sure

 

Amazing as this story seems

The strength of Jesus’ name

The Jesus’ blood flows still in streams

To cleanse one’s heart of shame

 

If all the world would see The Light

Could see The Truth as I

They’d stop with God their foolish fight

They’d seek His face on high.....

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.
