Notes About The Poem

He is the Reason For The Season.

Merry Christmas.

So Good

You're such a good and loving God to take such care of me.
Though I don't deserve it, still Your love is free.

You came into a barbarous world steeped in sin's corruption;
A world so vile it seemed to be bent on self destruction.

You laid aside Your Glory and disguised as a simple man,
You bravely entered in the fight to reassert Your plan.

You bought back all who are Your Own, You never flinched or wavered.
You spilled Your Precious Royal Blood to reinstate God's favor.

I wonder now could I withstand what You willingly went through;
And would again for just one man if e'er You needed to.

Could I ever be that brave? I don't think I could.
It's only You within me Lord. Only You are good.
