Can There Be

So can there be a dreamlike place
Where sympathy controls?
Where friendly kindness fills the space
No traps or tricks or holes.

A place where treachery slides away
And smoothness paves the path today
For those who have no sense of ease,
Whose struggles never cease?

Yes, yes, indeed, there is a place
Where hopes and future have a face.
Not made of things, nor merely matter
Not loads and loads of useless chatter.

Good hope is real in reach of all 
Whose voices call, their needs confessing 
And then proceed to trust the love
The sacrificial Calvary love of Jesus, 
Precious Jesus.

Wonderful poem. If we all would commit to Jesus the world would be a better place.
