For My Father's Sake Poem by Kathryn Tyler King

There is a time which I must find
When Jesus has this thing in mind,
To gather my troubles and heartbreak
And blot them for my Father’s sake.
Bring me near my precious Jesus,
So I might shed a tear for us
Who wait with trial and tribulations
To find such love and joyous elations.

Teach me to know thy will
So that You might truly fill
This broken of mind and heart
That I may be given a part
In your glorious and wonderful plan
of salvation and the rebirth of man.

Let me see what you would see
In whatever occupation it would be.
Lead me onwards to those around
Needing Jesus and His love abound.
Bring me near my precious Jesus,
So I might shed a tear for us
Who wait with trial and tribulations
To find such love and joyous elations.
