Make Me Real Lord

Make Me Real Lord

Make me real Lord make me real

That I be not the devil’s fool

While at Your feet in prayer I kneel

Make this child Your humble tool

 

You called me Lord I know not why

Nothing’s good I’ve ever done

For countless things I’d surely die

If not for Jesus Your Son

 

I’ll try my God to do my best

Now Heaven shines within

I pray Your Flame will do the rest

Purging every part of sin

 

With Fire; use Your Launders Soap            Mal.3:2

Consume all sinful shame

Love’s grace, through faith has brought such hope

To glorify Your’ name

 

Unchain me Lord from all that’s fake

From filth the devil sent

Each evil thought each sad mistake

Now humbly I repent

 

Life’s Comforter is always there

Raising me when I fall

Through precious love through tender care

I feel I’m ten feet tall

 

I see the change since grace first came

Since first I felt love’s touch

No longer is my life the same

You’ve taught this child so much

 

So make me real reform with love

Life’s Way make crystal clear

Prepare me Lord for life above

Whilst serving You down here…..

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.
