Notes About The Poem

"CREATE IN ME A CLEAN HEART OH GOD, AND RENEW A RIGHT SPIRIT WITHIN ME." Psalm 51:10

"FOR IN MANY THINGS WE OFFEND ALL. IF ANY MAN OFFEND NOT IN WORD THE SAME IS A PERFECT MAN." James 3:2

"FOR AS HE THINKETH IN HIS HEART, SO IS HE." Proverbs 23:7

"FOR WHERE ENVY AND STRIFE IS THERE IS CONFUSION AND EVERY EVIL WORK BUT THE WISDOM FROM ABOVE IS FIRST PURE, THE PEACEABLE, GENTLE EASY TO BE ENTREATED, FULL OF MERCY AND GOOD FRUITS WITHOUT PARTIALITY AND WITHOUT HYPOCRISY. James 3:16-17

Cleanse Me, Lord

Create a new heart within me Lord,
I pray Thee, renew my spirit,
That when death comes for me and time is no more,
I will have no need to fear it.

Let me please You in  all my ways,
And let my words not offend Thee,
That when I stand before Your throne,
I'll have no need to fear when You judge me.

As a man thinketh, so is he, You said,
So let my thoughts please You always.
Enter my mind and my heart this day,
That I'll not be barred at Your gateway.

Of all Your servants, I'm far from the best,
And if not for Jesus, I'm lost;
But He sought me and bought me with His precious Blood,
And He didn't give thought to the cost.

Thank You Father for Your precious Son,
And thank You Dear Jesus for coming,
Because You have come now all things are new,
A bright new day is now dawning.

A very inspirational write, Judy! Looks like it would qualify for entry in the "Write A Psalm" Contest. Would be a top winner in my estimation - Bob H
