Closet Christian

Closet Christian 

On a decision, for a while we had waited
When should our pretty church be painted?
So more of God will surely start to reveal
And of course for sure increase eye appeal.

Once finished would begin to brag and boast
Church is full of Father, Son and Holy Ghost
And once in seats, we will all want to share
Sermon by Priest that was beyond compare.

A thing we have heard that is of the latest
Is that to us God is truly always the greatest
At continually coming up with some creation
Of a Christian who requires further explanation.

So what you will have to do in a big hurry
Is buy copy of Crazy Christian by Bishop Currie
And any worry or doubt won't have again
When you opened up door and let God come in.

Episcopalians are part of both proud and profane
Each time when another priest they do ordain
Into collection plate more money they deposit
Even if a Christian who likes living in a closet.

James, I only responded to a comment you made. I try to look at the poetry of those who make comments. In this case have been delighted to see your workmanship and art and am sure will be looking at many more over time. Sometimes, I read comments people leave for others. Then, I might check out someone's work. It depends on how much time I have.
