What's Hidden There?.....

       What's Hidden There?.....

Heaven’s Light flood heart and vein?

Does grace direct your path?

Does righteousness within you reign?

To save from Heaven’s wrath

 

Has God revealed His Son to you?

Is Jesus Lord and King

Did God pour forth His Morning Dew?

Causing your heart to sing

 

Looking, observing, self; today

What would you see inside?

Would truth; cause you to kneel and pray?

Or seek a place to hide?

 

Would Satan’s brood have sown their seed?

Would putrid stench arise?

Could lust your heart festooned with greed?

Have blinded wayward eyes?

 

Or would a smile your soul embrace?

Would gladness overflow?

Would tears of joy adorn your face?

Would faith take on a glow?

 

Some know our time is in God’s hand

Yet show so little fear

Building like fools on shifting sand

Whilst death stands ever near

 

Its time for us to stand God true

Its time our lives to mend

God’s living Word truly review

Heaven to comprehend

 

Beware dear friend of evil’s fate

Beware when blind fools die

Or when their teeth begin to grate

You’ll see the reason why.....

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.
