Love on the Wing
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

LOVE ON THE WING

My spirit has a song to sing
My heart a sweet refrain
Upon The Wind through grace will ring
Love of one born again

On wings of truth will rise above
A melody of cheer
In adoration, boundless love
The cross reveals so clear

To Heaven’s King I now belong
The Truth The Life The Way
Eternity will hear this song
Resounding here today

I know and feel Your love for me
How much You truly care
Your suffering has made me see
Your willingness to share

No greater love has one to give
No greater death to die
That each on earth should rise and live
As one enthroned on high

With Heaven, hell, true life in view
Set free to make the choice
In gratitude my soul to You
Will raise a victor’s voice

Once lost, blind still walking dead
Through You my God I’m free
With true life’s crown upon my head
With robe as white can be

I’m coming home to You my King
A mansion never seen
Within the cloud on eagle’s wing
I’ll join Your faithful queen....

Michael P. Johnson

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.
