Sweet Aroma Poem by Michael P. Johnson

Encouragement to those who stray
A word of love divine
Moral support along the way
Is service to The Vine

Sweet aroma to saved and lost
Blessings to one and all
On mountain, sea where winds have tossed
And made God’s children fall

The bride of Christ has much to share
Has much the world to give
With hand shakes here, charity there
We’ll help her children live

Their eyes can see the things we do
They hear the words we speak
God’s love must guide His chosen few
Helping both strong and weak

No colour bar no age concern
Christian pagan or Jew
The world at large must come to learn
That Jesus’ love is true

Salvation’s there for you and I
For boisterous souls and meek
The way a man may never die
Is for the world to seek

Through Christ, that way has been revealed
Through Christ the way is clear
Whom Christ has saved and tightly sealed
Should serve the lost down here

The truth we need to understand
The gospel’s all to plain
We cannot shirk the work at hand
If truly born again
