Notes About The Poem

I could not wait intil I bedcame 10 years old in my hometown First Christian Church of 
Fort Scott, Kansas, that is when Reverand Paul Ely dunked me and I came up smiling and singing and Saved. 

Forever Free

FOREVER FREE
I stand before you, judged, a sinner be,
relinquishing all rights, I might have had,
but pray thee quick, to judge the soul of me,
then lay to rest--the sins that drive me mad.

I seek forgiveness, that's all of my plea,
for all I've been in life, as having fun,
and all the hurt--that's been--because of me
I pray put in the past, as if there's none.

I ask your guidance, on my bended knee
protect my days ahead, if there are some
and never let mine eyes again to see
the lust of life from where all sin has come.

And Jesus, give me wisdom, now to be
your servant who's been saved--forever free!
