Poem Title:
Poem
Forgive me when I fail to see how much You love and care for me. Remind me, Lord, to call Your name Your precious promises to claim. When I’m too wrapped up in my life, I fail to think of others’ strife. Remind me, Lord, that others weep. Your Word commands I feed Your sheep. When I can't hear Your quiet voice, that distance isn't by your choice. You'd not desert Your child, I know. Revive me when my spirit's low. When I obsess and fears run wild, remind me that I am Your child. I'm free to give those fears to You. Allay them, please, and peace renew. For every day I fail to say, "I thank You, God, for each sun's ray," Forgive me and remind me, please, to spend more time upon my knees. When long-past failures tease and taunt and old transgressions jeer and haunt, assure me you forgave me then when I repented of each sin. Remind me that Your ways are right, and in them help me to delight. Forgive me, Father, when I stray. Direct me when I lose my way. ************************** The greatest gift, salvation sweet, though undeserved, is ours. We’ll meet the Father and His precious Son in Heaven when our race is run.
