- Holy Is the Lamb -


    You must teach me to be humble 
    For love is the reason you died 
    The lamb is so clean, white and holy 
    A newborn Lamb of God who makes new life begin 
    The Lamb gentleness is evident for all 
    Take away my sinful thoughts and lies 
    Worthy is the Lamb that carries your words 
    I'm no angel, but I know they exist 
    You paid with your blood for the salvation of men 
    Love abundance is where you are found

The Lamb of God that the Vikings saw as the Victorious Warrior on the Cross. The positive contradiction of Christianity. Thanks Anne Lise, from one non angel to another! Peter Peter Dorr 9/11/14

I practice being humble and I ask Jesus Christ to take away thoughts from my mind that He doesn't/wouldn't approve. This is a God felt poem. Thank you
