Today... 'Christ Our Life' Poem by Roy Allen

Today... 'Christ Our Life'



Oh how sweet and blessed is the life of Christ
for He lived a life of love and sacrifice
and my souls cries out and waits as it yearns
for the day when Christ who is my Life returns.

Life more abundantly Jesus can bring
and of forgiveness and cleansing I can sing.
There is no other life that can compare
to the life Jesus given for all to share.

For Christ is our life and Christ is our joy.
Through Christ comes the life death cannot destroy.
Each day with Jesus is a delight to share
enfolded in His arms of love and care.

All quotations ©NIV

The Bible calls You by many names
each one giving a glimpse of Your glory.
Like a cut diamond radiating in the sun
with every facet depicting an aspect
of Your Divine Nature.
Today I have thought of You as
'Christ our Life'
