Let Jesus Be Your Head.....
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

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

From life, deceitful lies will sever

From Heaven’s realm above

Where God and truth live forever

Continually in love

 

Only the truth, with Christ life’s King

Where true love’s chains tether

Will eat, drink, dance and sing

Always as one, together

 

But who will join the truth of light?

Life’s word to fallen man

Who will quit God’s grace to fight

Accepting Heaven’s plan

 

Harken to not, what fools will say

Scoffers, with man’s degree

But whom the world, turns night and day

Creator; of all to see

 

Accept, believe, The Lord God’s word

Thus purify your heart

Then live and practice what you’ve heard

Distance from death apart

 

When free of self, demonic weed

Spiritually clean

With grace and love, sow living seed

Let nothing intervene

 

Troubles may come, sinners may thrive

Stay firm, stand Jesus sure

Let faith in God remain alive

Though death may knock the door

 

What can man, say, or devils do?

Though thinking you are dead

Recall God’s promise made to you

Let Jesus be your head…..

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.
