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

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.
