Truth Devouring Poem by Michael P. Johnson

Do you want to live forever?
Endless to dwell in peace
Where elation nought can sever
Nor true love come to cease

Our Creator's not a liar
Man's welfare is His aim
As perfect testifier
He'll free lost souls of shame

Faithful changing behaviour
Through guidance from on high
We'll walk with Christ our Saviour
To live and never die

First this statement, may sound absurd
An utterance of fools
But learning, by reading God's Word
We'll live by Heaven's rules

Becoming by faith common sense
Rational all in all
We'll sit no more on the fence
Never again to fall

But firmly standing with Jesus
On all He's had to say
As life's facts and truths more please us
The more we'll live God's Way

But teaching's not always pleasant
Until we learn to see
Above and beyond man's present
Eternal joy is free

Consider God's Word as eating
The bible, as a well
Let The Truth be doubt defeating
Life's facts rescue from hell.....
