Christian Poems

God never said, as far as I’m aware

You have to be a Christian or a Jew

If you want to go to heaven

There’s one thing you’ve got to do

Believe in Christ asking for forgiveness

For in heaven you have an advocate

And with sincere prayer

You’ll have a holy appellate.

Sometimes Christians become too insular

Forgetting their life’s mission

Preaching only to the converted

And to the others only wishing

Wishing that they would convert

But they don’t need conversion

And sometimes because of this

They are their version

So in everything you do

In thought, word and deed

Seek the Lord’s will through prayer

And he will deliver everything you need

So work among the many

And always show God’s love

And there will be a place for you at God’s table

In heaven above.

~~~###~~~

Love the Lord with all your heart and soul

Seeking his forgiveness and when the bell tolls

And he will redeem your life from whence it was stolen.

~~~###~~~

Love the Lord your God with all your will

And in the end he will wipe clean your bill

For he is your advocate and redeemer still.

Many years I’ve lied

And many years I’ve denied

Many years I’ve deserved to die

And yet many years I felt you cry

Many years I’ve gone astray

And many years I’ve lost my way

Many years I’ve deserved to pay

And yet many years you wiped my slate away

Now, I’ve finally come to my senses

Now, there’ll be no more pretences

Now, there’ll be no more final sentences

Now, you’ve broken down all the deceitful fences.
