Roy Allen Poems

Oh sweet, sweet Rose of Sharon.
God's wonderful Beloved Son.
Such beauty and love unfurled
when You blossomed in our world.
...

'I'll pass over you when I see the blood'
This was the wonderful promise of God
The blood has been shed and the price is paid
The Passover Lamb on the alter laid.
...

No more a destitute orphan am I to be
for the Father of the Fatherless has fathered me.
and I've been born again into God's family
because Jesus laid down His life and saved me
...

Rejected of men for being too good
we crucified You on a cross of wood
But Your Father had other plans for You
for the temple was to be built anew
...

'Who do you say I am? ' You enquired.
Then Peter replied with words so inspired
'The Christ of God and the Promised One
The Messiah and God's Only Son.'
...

The Glory of Your people Israel
came to us as The Lord Immanuel.
Light and revelation to all You bring
and of Your salvation the Gentiles sing.
...

Lead me Lord along this earthly path of mine
through those meadows where the sun does shine,
beside the serene and peaceful waters.
Lead me Lord through those green pastures
...

Bethlehem Ephrathah the smallest of every clan
as prophesied out of you has come the long promised Man.
Now no more is the sun required to lighten up each day
The Everlasting Light of heaven illuminates our way.
...

'This is the King of the Jews', it read
The notice they hung above Your head,
But You were the Chosen One of God
And that grim road to Calvary trod.
...

Through Jesus all the nations shall be blessed
for the Son of God is their Righteousness.
Great Blessing for All Nations by Gods' grace
for Gentiles shall be justified by faith.
