Tribute To Michael Jordan

There is a very special man
caring, humble, proud
I am here to testify
and sing his praise out loud

He lives to love and spread the truth
of healing through the land
His poetry brings courage, hope,
extends a helping hand

To souls who've lost the rightous way
his heart sings loud and true
and Michael I am honored
to sing my praise to you

You spread encouragement, hope and love
to all who've been through hell
you share strength and compassion
for you know the horrors well

And now you live a Godly life
a beacon for all to see,
I'm glad you came into my life
you've helped my heart be free.


A tribute to PSer Michael Jordan, a true friend.
