Betty Harp Butler Poet Rhyme

The Hound From Heaven

Like a hound from Heaven,
The Holy Spirit seeks our heart.
Ever wooing us, always pursuing us,
Lovingly reminding us to do our part.

To turn to Jesus with our problems,
To open our lives to His love,
Surrendering everything to His will,
And seeking guidance from above.

Always, gently leading us onward
To a place Jesus has prepared.
Through circumstances arranged by Him,
We surrender all, and our soul is bared.

Only by giving up eveyrthing in life,
Can we finally win in the end.
By believing, confessing, and forsaking all,
We can know peace and freedom from sin.
