An Evening With God (3) Poem by Michael P. Johnson

Through Jesus’ love I’m flying high
No longer do I wonder why
I see the cross all doubt has gone
I’m so in love with Christ Your Son


Sweet God of love alone who’s wise
I see I’m swimming in Your eyes
The world may think this child a fool
But not who’ve swum Salvation’s pool


Oh God you feel so near, so close
If I’d reach out, my God suppose
I feel Your hand so full of light
Hold fast my heart Lord, tight Lord tight


My heart quickens at such a rate
Bless You Lord the way You state
Your love to me from high above
I’m all wrapped up inside Your love


Since dawn of time Lord here I was
You saw this child and all because
You wrote my name within life’s book
And saw in truth the way I took


Now how much longer will it take
Oh great I am, please let it make
No difference now, to all this love
I hold so dear for You above


The day’s pass by with such great haste
I pray no moment now to waste
This precious gift to man You gave
We need to use more souls to save


Father in You I’m so in love
In Christ, my heart flies as a dove
Soaring so high as on the wing
That I to You life’s song may sing.
