My Faith Poem by Dan Michaelson

When my faith is strong
I am very meek
When my ego’s big
My faith is weak

I can’t explain
Its rise and fall
This thing inside
My soul doth call

When I think of me
It’s barely there
When I think of you
I’ve too much to share

This elusive thing
My hands can’t touch
My eyes can’t see
I’m deaf as much

But if I stop
And think of love
My faith is strong
In Him above.

The One I seek
When faith is dry
For all of us
The Lamb who died.

Upon a cross
And lanced with spear
He rose again
To take our tears.

So the next time
I think I’m sad
I think I’ve done
Something so bad

I must remember
The One who gave
His only Son
And He forgave.
