You Say You Love Me Too (2)

 

Believe The One who reigns on high

Who lives though once was dead

Arise when self; has learned to die

And serve the hungry bread

 

Go tell the world of what you see

The facts your ears have heard

Reveal The Truth set others free

According to my Word

 

Obey! Regardless pain or strife

Obey and all endure

I am The Way The Truth & Life

The Key to Heaven’s Door

 

My burden child is never grave

My yoke is light to bear

Go forth; more sinful souls to save

Eternal life to share

 

Despite what those still lost decree

What those who mock may say

If you say you truly love me

You’ll trust me and obey

 

For this is what I want of you

It’s all your God commands

What I myself have had to do

Beneath tormenting hands

 

I came to live to serve and love

My Father to obey

That you my child would rise above

To live with me one day

 

So love me child and love me true

Obey your God’s command

Do what your Lord expects of you

And dwell The Promised Land…….

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.
