~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 




In the rising of the sun, I see His smile
restoring me with heavenly warmth,
the joy from knowing He did reconcile
with the Father, who created me to love
by the Son, who went the extra mile
to save my soul from the darkest pit
to save my spirit – life really is worthwhile!

In the spring, I see Him in the rose
shadow dancing, with the light of hope
in the summer, I know that He knows
all about me, and loves me despite the worst
in the autumn, I feel the time as it slows
and I remember how He healed my soul
in the winter, as the year comes to a close
there is wonder that comes to those who see
He is alive and His love is always free – He arose
to set the sinner free – oh, He gave His life for me!

In time, I’ll meet Him face to face
see the beauty, the wonder of His grace

In the end, I hope that you will see
why He came to this world
He is love and He came for you and me
He is the song that sings to the spirit
He is the light and I fall down on my knee
to worship this Jesus, who is love I can’t explain
He is the love that took me, a nobody
and made me a somebody with His grace
a somebody who fell down beneath that tree
and, I’m still praising, praising forever
because He gave me His guarantee –

with Him beside me, I never need fear 
with His love, a love that is always sincere
I know the truth – It’s all crystal clear
He is my Savior and with Him, I’ll persevere!

First of all the picture that you have of Jesus with the loaves and fishes is warm. I am so glad you write poems that are decidedly Christian, they are nice to read. I love how you ended this on I'll persevere.
