Thank You Lord

You are the light in my dark heart That I inherited devoid of spark You are the joyful tone in silver song That catchy yellow melody well known You are the spark in a baby’s eye That wrinkle of a twinkle that heart’s delight How do I praise you with my tattered tongue Words are not beautiful enough where I’m from How do I serenade you with my heavy heart Knowing you are destined you are a holy star How do I follow you when I stumble so clumsily How do I swallow you communion hearts bleed I am not worthy but you made it right You died on a cross for me you are Christ Thank you for your love for your sacrifice Thank you sweet lord for every day every night

“ I am not worthy but you made it right.” Karen!! I like a poetess like you who has a truly humble and grateful heart. This truly impresses me. Couplet This has to be a warm favorite for me! In a world that lives in such dark duplicity. Hugs, Pangie

Thank you for your sweet comment! I don’t write these much as I feel my words are just not good enough to praise him!
