Today... 'Father To Israel' Poem by Roy Allen

Today... 'Father To Israel'



With supplication come before God weeping
and then your soul will be in His safe keeping.
You will not stumble as you walk the Straight Way
besides flowing streams of water as you pray.

For the Father to Israel will never sleep
keeping a watchful eye on all of His sheep.
He will never forsake them or let them go
For they are His offspring and He loves them so.

each one giving a glimpse of Your glory.
Like a cut diamond radiating in the sun
with every facet depicting an aspect
