Hearing, Reading, Learning Poem by Michael P. Johnson

Hearing, Reading, Learning

Rating: 3.5


Hearing of God? Hearing of Christ?
Reading the bible through
Learning Jesus was sacrificed
What sinful man should do

For God's love, God's grace to abide
God's Lamp to shine within
Truthful living, must turn life's tide
For love by grace to win

Through directions Heaven's giving
Observed with open eye
Henceforth, enjoy peaceful living
No more afraid to die

Receiving Salvation's Treasure
God's Holy Ghost within
Life's journey's become a pleasure
Relieved of burdened sin

Such foolishness was done before
The filth I tried to hide
Hindering always Heaven's Door
For me to rise inside

All praise to my Lord Gods kindness
For all He died to tell
Through freedom from hindering blindness
I see life's Way from hell

Jesus, The Christ, truly knowing
Hearing His voice first hand
Through hope, through faith, trust bestowing
I'll reach The Promised Land

God knows each one's future hidden
Each rich reward He'll give
Through obeying all one's bidden
With He Himself, we'll live.....
