Why Has My Father Forsaken Me

Why Has My Father Forsaken Me

What I on Jesus's worrisome face did see;
He said why has my Father forsaken me;
Death did part;
Broke my heart;
Back in heaven again better things will be.

Jim Horn

Over ten again.

No Longer Here

I'm in heaven and no longer here,
What did you do my darling dear;
Say a prayer;
For me care;
From earth you to will disappear.

Jim Horn

Well on my way to 5,000.

Many Things May Mean

To follow Christ many things may mean;
A raging sea or forest found to be green;
View would vary;
Cross did carry;
Saw mountain with snow a lovely scene.

Jim Horn

Pain from So Much Strain

Had been hard to bare so much strain;
My anxiety resulted in emotional pain;
Further consult,
The final result,
And from believing in God never refrain.

Jim Horn

Endanger A Species

Some people a species will endanger;
Should stop doing and become a stranger;
We had heard,
Miracles occurred;
God made me a great closet re-arranger.
(And cabinet as well.)

Jim Horn

Must Mention Best Intention

It might have been with apprehension,
There are many things I must mention;
Must not wait,
And expediate;
What I only had was a best intention.

Jim Horn

What If I Were To

What if I were to shake, rattle and roll
Do you think that God's greatest goal;
Do things twice,
Which were nice;
Saved me from sin while making whole.

Jim Horn

Recluse Without Any Use

At all am a recluse without any use;
Poems to pick were hard to choose;
Struggled for a while;
My poems did compile;
All had contained God's point of view.

Jim Horn

God Had Helped Me

Either must be big secret or some trick,
When paint for house will want to pick;
With country view;
Best one I knew;
God helped me even though an old hick.

Jim Horn

Suspicious About Nutritious

What really made me the most suspicious,
Is when a fool had said sins are nutritious;
No longer last;
Jesus has past,
On to heaven where God's word is delicious.

Features That Did Redeem

He had so many features that did redeem;
Saw them all while sitting beside a stream;
Neared and neared,
Until vision appeared;
Was none other than God who is supreme.

Continued To Fret

We fooled around and continued to fret,
After a while when sun slowly would set,
Rest assured;
Had occurred;
Magnificent scene God made we had met.
