POEMS

A Rose for JesusJesus, Saviour, Lord, and King,
This rose was given to You.
It’s one You once made white,
And love turned it to blue.
Come, Let’s Pray in FaithIf you are burdened down with cares, and
Don’t know what to do, I know just
How you feel, and what you’re going through.
Dear GodThank you for this day You have blessed
Me with.
And may I show someone else your love in
Words you’ve said.
Earth AngelsThis I write of Angels, not ones from
Up above, they are the ones on
Earth, that God’s filled with
His love.
Good MorningI hope your day is swell and You’ll
Find peace and joy drinking
From God’s well.
He Waited at the WellI’d gotten up early,
And hurried to the well,
Not wanting to be seen
Because of all this shame I felt.
This Galilee ManIn this Galilee man we are blessed,
So let today’s troubles with
Jesus rest.
When God made ManMore than just breath did God put in man
He was made in His image and given His plan,
To create and build and walk in His way,
To take care of this garden and all God hath made.
Will You Be There?When soon the roll is called up Yonder and we’re
Bound to earth no more, and the bridegroom
Says all’s ready as He opens Heaven’s Door.
Then I turned to JesusFor one day I found I could not go on, I hated
My life it was useless and blown.
Tears streaming down my face, I fell to my
Knees and cried out to God, "if you’re there
hear me please.
This Day of ThanksgivingAs a child I remember on Thanksgiving Day
The family together, heads bowed as we prayed.
Our Place of Bliss LordThere is a place of bliss, at times that I go to.
When I feel so broken, and want to
Talk with You.
