Jim Pemberton Poet Rhyme

Do You Love Me Jesus Does

Do You Love Me?  Jesus Does!

If you loved me the way Christ does,  
what a difference it would make!
Perhaps I wouldn't feel 
like my life is a mistake?

If you listened to me 
and weren't busy all the time.
I'd find a friend like Christ,
  compassionate and kind.

The time we've been together has 
been few and far between.
Lately, I've done a good job of
 messing up everything.

I ask you: “Will you 
give me another chance?”
Take time to pray that God will
 change my circumstance?

Thoughts and actions speak 
louder than words spoken.
May your heart yield to the 
Holy Spirit and be broken.

Thank you, for taking
the time to listen to me.
It's people like you that I want to
 be with for eternity!
