Listen to poem:
Song by Benny Berry If you will lend me your ear I have something to tell you It's been burning on my heart And on my mind For ones that have grown weary To the ones that are hopeless In trying to ease their minds All the troubled hearts that are heavy burden Just looking for a spark to flame In knowing it must be something better Than what mankind is portraying You have seeked across this earth For a peace to set you free Only being left empty seeking In ones own path for rest My friend listen to His voice It's when we give up and call out to Jesus To find out the treasure was within To set a fire burning ablaze Giving a new love , joy and peace Blazing within this light is revealing The darkness which held one captive To the chaos and confusion of this world The spirit of fire has ignited And burning away old self desires Molding and purifying one into a new being Sadly seeing this world still rejects From deception of the darkness That we once were a part of in blindness But through Jesus one can be set free Being pulled away from old life style and worries It's not that we loved God at first But He loved us to send His son to free one In knowing nothing in our own works Will ever release one from deception of darkness Only through the spirit of Jesus Keeping in mind to give Him all glory For all we can do is give up That He might reign within Not that we have become good But that spirit within has given a new mind and heart That we must submit unto it's Will and desires Not to fall back into the old self that was placed Under our feet seeking to come back Praying for Jesus to stomp it in the ground Not falling victim from false teachings The spirit within which saved one shall teach And the feeling like this can't be real Why is not everyone else talking of this love Remembering it was not of own works Which brought one unto a new life Igniting the soul to flame But a broken and contrite heart Which seeked for better in a dying world Which is sadly still falling unto deception Only to be revealed through the spirit That there is a new path and sight in view Shinning a light through the darkness Jesus will touch your heart And set you free
