Jim Pemberton Poet Rhyme

I'Ll Never Be the President

I'll Never Be The President...

I have no intentions to be the president...
This world is not my eternal residence!

I Have no intentions to live in a cathedral..
Nor to engage in what's merely "procedural."

I have no intentions of getting too "political..."
I don't want to be too "hypocritical."

I have no intentions of being "famous" or "admired."
This is not my ambition, nor my desire!

My intentions I hope are pretty clear...
To follow Jesus...  Whom I love so dear!

My intention is do my very best...
To live for Christ.  I am so blessed!

My intention is to focus on this one goal…
To seek after God with all of my soul!

My intentions need to be fixed and directed.
Following God's word, as I'm daily "corrected."

My intention is to focus on Christ with my mind!
And to give him my life and my time!

Christ' intention is to be my Lord and friend.
And to cleanse me from the darkness within!

Christ intends to always be faithful and true!
He's always there for ME and for YOU!
