Almighty Is the Lord

 

Most people think God’s far away

To some He’s closed the door

Others suppose God’s nought to say

He hasn’t said before

 

Some think the bible says it all

We’ve just to sit and wait

Till Jesus makes His final call

Revealing each their fate

 

The Father’s face they fail to seek

For them, God’s out of reach

A few may go to church each week

To hear what man will preach

 

We must discern the bible right!

God’s deeds have never ceased

He’s still today man’s guiding Light

Our Saviour Lord and Priest

 

‘A personal God’, who loves to care

So much; Christ came and died

Rising again His love to share

With those God calls His bride

 

Allow today! Life’s Light to dawn

God’s Spirit, burn your shame                     Mt.3:11-12

Believe God’s word become reborn

Exalt Christ Jesus name

 

Deny yourself, in fasting prayer

Isaiah tells it well                                         Isa.58:1-14

Your personal friend will soon be there

To help you walk from hell

 

For Jesus died our souls to free                   Lk.4:18-19

God’s glory to restore

The bible’s here for all to see

Yet God is so much more.....

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.
