I wrote this poem Sunday morning prior to attending church at the Tabernacle with the intention of providing it to the pastor to read to the congregation. I hoping posting it here prior to going there.
The First Day of September By Franklin Price 09/01/2024 It is the first day of September The year is twenty twenty-four We're meeting at the Tabernacle Christ came with us through the door We here worship Him together We sing praises to His name Since He died, for us, upon the cross Our world has never been the same The stone was slid and Christ arose Three days after it was set If we believe he did it for us We are forever in his debt He took our sins upon his shoulders He is our way to Heaven's gate When we pass from this life onward Eternal life will be our fate Jesus Christ is waiting for us His Holy Spirit's with us here Our believing is receiving One day soon He will appear In the rapture He'll return to earth And take all believers home I myself believe this truth That is why I wrote poem
