Maureen Lefanue Poet Rhyme

My Passion

My Passion

This is my passion
This is my song
Praise for my Savior
To Him I belong
Blessed assurance
That I’ve been forgiven
Such mercy and grace
To Him I’m beholden.

This is my passion
My Jesus, my Lord
Perfect submission
Only He can afford
Now that my being’s
In His complete sway
There’s never a reason
To have my own way.

This is my passion
My love, my delight
To tell of His glory
His power and might
To heal the sinner
In both body and mind
Release from the bondage
Freedom to find.

This is my passion
My joy and my song
Reclaimed with my Savior
And His heavenly throng
To spend every moment
At His precious feet
Where the streets are gold
This passion ‘tis sweet.

Rhonda Johnson-Saunders March 6, 2012 at 6:18 AM I love how this poem flows like the hymm Blessed Assurance, one of my favorites. I was singing that hymm to my dad when he passed away. It was a very peaceful moment and I'm grateful to God for allowing me to be with him when he took his final breaths. I think of him when I hear it. Thanks for sharing your beautiful poem. Blessings, Rhonda
