Faith Is a Powerful Thing

F aceless is the connivance of our deadly foe A llegiance to our Saviour is the way to go I mmutable services of great magnitude T rust in holy teachings shall not be misconstrued H abitual desire brings us to our knees I mmeasureable lifetime soul courses for trainees S purious thoughts and emotions deter progress A tonement for misdemeanours, less we regress P atrick, an alcoholic, forgot how to pray O bedience to his true faith dissolved away W alking through Central Park to his own detriment E mbodiment entity of evil descent R ose up before Patrick with purposeful intent F ascinated he approached his deadly demise U plifting his face to see his assailant's eyes L andscape of verdant grasses, bright bluest of skies T emperate climate, with many birds to enthrall H ow, why, where could he be? Perhaps, dreaming it all I mage of Jesus formed, as he heard his name call N umbed by anaesthetic, he vowed to live again G lorifying his Saviour for a life regained
