Greater Is He
Greater is He
Written: by Miracle Man
7/31/2017
For twenty eight years I withered on the vine,
Without the bread of life to satisfy my hunger;
I had relegated Jesus to a spot on the sideline,
Having lost whatever desire I had when younger.
God cleansed my heart, and took my stench,
And filled me with a burden for the unredeemed;
So now the Holy Spirit I no longer quench,
And life is much easier than once it seemed.
Today, I’m just an old sinner saved by grace,
Who was living each day as he thought it should be.
I’ve moved from the sty to a better place,
After realizing one existed greater than me.
