Jim Pemberton Poet Rhyme

Jesus My Life Is One Huge Embarrassment

For many years...  My life has been
an embarrassment!
Filled with hopelessness
 and discouragement!

Many things I thought I had enjoyed...
Have left in me...   A large and empty void!

Many nights, I would 
cry myself to sleep.
Knowing the hole my life was in, 
was very, very deep.

Then one day, I called out to God!
I wasn’t sure if he’d listen!
My family, my old church, 
I was now missin'.

My family prayed for me for so many years.
I often brought them embarrassment and tears.

God...  I tried everything else...
I want to come back to you!
I need you now Jesus! I really do!

Please come into my heart,
and cleanse me within!
Set me free from all addictions and sin!

I know that you will never let go of my hand.
My whole life, on your word, 
I shall now stand.

Only you can satisfy the emptiness in my soul!
 I am now complete, 
satisfied, and made whole!
