Poem Title:
Poem
The atmosphere is electric, There is music in de air, Drinks at the bar are flowing I, in de latest gear Opportunity for sex on the horizon I'll pick up a guy or two It's time I start to live my life, Enjoy de things I do After hours on de dance floor and liquor that can't done I still felt the emptiness which follows this type of short-lived fun. As I sat and pondered, it all came back and hit me like a tone God's word says sin indeed has pleasure, but only for a season Lord, I thank You for Your Word! That is one scenario, I have at least another two. Which clearly paints the role God's Word plays in everything we do. Broke to de bone not a cent to my name The baby crying and the bailiff here to make me shame I was hungry and hurting with nowhere to go Cause I had already begged all de people I know I dropped down on de floor and poured my heart out to heaven Then God's word spoke clear '... ask and it shall be given' Almost instantly a knock was heard God had moved my neighbor's heart to completely fill my cupboard It's times like these my gratitude would very clearly be heard Lord, I thank You for Your Word! Girl you look like a zip when you turn to de side If I had a face like yours I'd be sure to hide Stick and stone may break my bones but words would paralyze me My spirit is wounded and my self-worth 's low as could be People judge me not based on who I am inside But simply on what they see Maybe I should end my life and put a stop to this But God's Word came almost audibly - one I couldn't miss Child, you are fearfully and wonderfully made Known before the beginning of time All your members were written in my book while yet undefined I marveled at God's grace and His love for me Then could not help but raise my voice And say more confidently Lord, I thank You for Your Word! Lord, I cannot thank you enough for all the things You do For Your Word which is ever powerful has been proven to be true Inspired by You completely and used to bring out in us the best For doctrine, reproof, correction, instruction in righteousness You said if I hide it in my heart, it's sure to keep me from sin And that success is guaranteed if I do all that is written therein When I give thought to all these truths I have to let my voice be heard And conclude by saying again Lord, I thank You for Your Word!!!
