His Mission: To Save
Lovingly He calls, Come unto Me
All ye who are so heavily laden.
I've paid the price for all your sins,
Making it possible to be forgiven.
Repent and be baptized, it reads.
Receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
He will guide you safely back home.
Despite the world, He helps most!
Kneeling at the foot of His cross,
Lovingly He calls, Come unto Me
All ye who are so heavily laden.
I've paid the price for all your sins,
Making it possible to be forgiven.
Repent and be baptized, it reads.
Receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
He will guide you safely back home.
Despite the world, He helps most!
Kneeling at the foot of His cross,
My
head bowed in deep humility,
I
remembered His loving words
While
going through such agony.
Father
forgive them, he pleaded.
They
don't know what they do.
In
compassionate understanding
He
makes intercession for us too.
Oh
to return His love; how we ask?
Give
as Jesus gave, to us so freely.
Forgive
as forgiven, that is our task.

ReplyDeleteThank you both for your kind support. I am so blessed by you both. Surely it is no coincidence I met both of you. God knew what I needed and who I needed.
ReplyDeleteLove, Charlene
Yes Charlene - Our Father works in mysterious ways, doesn't He? Because we enjoy poetry so much and write with true feelings, I feel it shows we three are blessed by our Lord's hand. He says unto me - 'let your pen flow' and flow it shall...rg
