No Liar (3)

 

You’re chic, you’re grand, you speak so fine

Yet scoff winking your eye

No one can fool this God of mine

It’s better not to try

 

If you my friend are one of these

Take off your sad disguise

Divulge the truth upon your knees

Denounce to Christ your lies

 

Best think again before you lie

Before you grieve The Lord

Before the day in filth you die

To feel The Judge’s sword

 

To some, your word seem true and just

Yet others know you well

But will you change your shroud of dust?

Or burn condemned in hell?

 

For who can trust the fools who lie?

The cheat who’s scales deceive?

On whom can Jesus Christ rely?

Who can The Lord believe?

 

God says The Truth will open eyes

Break free of Satan’s claws

Reveal the foolishness of lies

The torment liars cause

 

Of Satan’s filth I’ll have no part

His seed will take no root

Through Jesus’ Spirit in my heart

I’ll bear my God sweet fruit

 

I’ll be no more the devil’s whore

In shame I’ll bow no knee

In truth I’ll enter Heaven’s door

Through Christ life’s living key.....

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.
