Giving Godly Grace

God, our Lord the master of creation Intended for us to believe in salvation Victory can be reached by accepting his word Inviting those who have sinned to come be transferred Now is the time for us all to listen Great things are to come, when his son has risen Go forth, take your children and lead them by hand Omnipresent is he do you understand? Do unto others what you know is right Love thy self and thy neighbor there’s no reason to fight Your life was not made by a human being God used his own image to create what your seeing Read the bible and congregate, hit your knees and pray All people are welcome to push evil away Come as you are, come with no shame Eternal our God, he knows your name 05/17/2021 Written for Giving Godly Grace Poetry Contest Sponsored by Regina McIntosh

Thank you Sam. I truly appreciate the comment. Yesterday I went to a church with some friends and it was amazing. The worship team sang a song called "He knows my name" and I said the names of everyone I know out loud. That was my inspiration for the poem.
