Tom Wright Poet Lyric

My Harvest Was At the Cross

My Harvest Was at The Cross
Written: by Tom Wright

I hear ministers expound on seed planting 
And the harvest that I’m ever guaranteed
I’m perplexed by those who’s incessant ranting
Preach doctrines whose intent is to mislead

I never plant seed for a return expected
And God isn’t bound to a harvest windfall 
It isn’t something owed and uncollected
This kind of teaching always fails to enthrall

My seed are applied to a debt of the past
Interest on a note that I can never repay
Jesus cared for me when I was an outcast
His death at the cross is my hope for today


No profession or calling is immune
From those seeking to separate you from something;
Tom
