Janet Bingham Poet Rhyme

I Do Not Fear the Night

I DO NOT FEAR THE NIGHT

I love to pray to Jesus.
He is my personal light.
Without Him, I'd be lost in sin
every stormy night.

Jesus understands my fears.
He knows my every doubt.
He loves me unconditionally.
He comprehends what my life's all about.

I am not perfect.
He takes me by the hand.
I have personal defects,
but Jesus understands.

Jesus helps by forgiving me.
He guides me with His light.
So that when my evening of death comes
I will not fear the night.

Janet Marie Bingham

Caren Krutsinger April 21, 2019 at 2:39 AM I once started out a little mini-sermon for children at church saying "I am a sinner," and people got excited and started clapping. I am still pondering this, but it is true of all of us, of course. For some reason your poem triggered this memory of 14 years ago.
