If Poem by Michael P. Johnson

If by God’s grace you’ve come to live
Within Salvation’s hand
You’ll have what Jesus died to give
To spread through every land

Consider what The Lord has done
Lend ear to all He’s said
Receive the balm through Christ His Son
To raise the walking dead

Put on the shoes of lasting peace
Take up your faithful shield
Bring others to a swift release
When truth of Christ’s revealed

Make known God’s Lamb was sacrificed
God’s Son who chose to die
The one and only Jesus Christ
The Lord enthroned on high

Make known the reason Jesus came
The power of His blood
The power through His holy name
To live the way we should

Be shrewd as snakes yet like a dove
Walk gentle strong and true
Allow the world see Jesus’ love
That leads to life anew

Allow the lost to see your light
The Light of truth divine
Till blinded eyes receive their sight
And have God’s Lamp to shine

Allow the truth to spread as yeast
Let righteousness pursue
Invite each sinner to the feast
As Jesus Christ called you
