Notes About The Poem

Jesus Said

The blessings we share,
The reasons we care,
Are praises that He spread.

The life that we live,
The gifts that we give,
Are glories to His stead.

The story is told,
What a rugged road,
The cross from which He pled.

He shared the good news, 
His words are the clues,
For reasons that He bled.

Open your heart,
Let this be the start,
To hear what Jesus said -

I will cry for you,
As I die for you,
I will rise for you,
To leave you hope.

All I ask of you,
Hold Me close to you,
I will save you ....

That's what Jesus said.
