Best Faithson Poems
Angels Above
A. W. Nutter
At fifteen, I was to young to become a father
At fourteen, she didn’t need to be a mother
We were old enough to have sexual relations
Unable to understand the implications
We cried out in anguish to the angels above
Pleading for their mercy and their love
Parents abusing us for this sinful union
Adolescents fearful and full of confusion
Not able to cope with the adult pressure
The mothers young body goes into labor
We cried out in anguish to the angels above
Pleading for their mercy and their love
My son struggled between life and death
I held his hand as he took his last breath
From my hands his little body was pried
The tears falling like rain from my eyes
We cried out in anguish to the angels above
Pleading for their mercy and their love.
Occasionally the mother and my path will cross
Seldom do we mention or discuss our loss
But every year at nine, on the sixteenth of May
We both agreed, to light a candle and silently pray
To the angels watching from heaven above
Shower our son with mercy, show him your love
What if our Easter Sunday was Holy Spirit led?
What if in place of colored eggs, lost souls were sought instead?
Instead of hurried egg hunts, we’d hurry to Christ’s grave
Rejoice to find it empty, and shout within the cave
What if crimson spotted robes replaced our light pastels?
And thorns were thought more beautiful than eggs with painted shells?
We’d tie our aprons at our waists and wash each other’s feet
A sponge of vinegar we’d taste, instead of chocolate treats
What if the fluffy bunnies moved over for the Lamb?
And recognized the Prince of Peace, the King, the great I Am?
Instead of Easter baskets, our hearts would overflow
With kindness and concern for those we do and do not know
A prize egg fat with silver coins would lose its mass appeal
For Jesus is the Risen Christ, and all before Him kneel
Father, Teacher, Son of Man, Redeemer, Risen Lord
Master, Savior, Son of God, Christ will not be ignored!
So as we dye our hard boiled eggs, and tie our pretty bows
Let us remember Jesus Christ, from whom all blessings flow
Ours is life washed free from sin, for Jesus paid the price
He died to rise on Easter morn, our living sacrifice
The end times are upon us
the return of the Lord is near
try to take care of your loved ones
and those to you that are dear
try to be loving and compassionate
always try to show that you care
children please listen to your parents everywhere
try not to have any bad thoughts
or no harsh words to be said
just keep on walking in the fruit of the spirit instead
the Lord is there to guide us both now and forevermore
just imagine if today was the day that he returned and knocked on our door
wars earthquakes floods despair and fear
just a few of the signs that the end times are near
try to take care of your loved ones
and those to you that are dear.
persecution will come
from even those that we love most and when we least expect it , this I know only to well
and is true.
II Timothy 3:1-5,7 "But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. For men
will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, disobedient to their parents,
ungrateful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal,
haters of good, treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of
god; holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; always learning
and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth."
Matthew 24:6 "And you will be hearing of wars and rumors of wars; see that you are not
frightened, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end."
Matthew 24:7 "For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and in
various places there will be famines and earthquakes."
mathew24:27 Just as the lightning comes from the east,and flashes even to the west,so shall
the son of man be.
Luke 12:37 you too must be ready, for the son is coming at an hour that you do not expect.
mathew 24:30 they shall see the son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and
great Glory. Amen.
God the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, the blessed Trinity,
watching over us with love, as only God can do.
Three in One, One from Three, purest love Divinity.
Father God created all, God the Son came down to save you.
God the Holy Ghost surrounds you, guiding you your whole life through.
For Dr. Ram Mehta's contest won 7th place
The Son in my eyes
Is brightness
From my high horse
With reigns tightened
Thrown into darkness
His likeness
Formed scales on my eyes
So frightened
Then touched, I received
My sight and
The Son in my eyes
Is still brightness
He's the One true Lord
Now enlightened
I want to be like Him
And His likeness
(song poem to the music of "The Devil Went Down To Georgia" by Charlie Daniels)
The Savior came down from heaven
because He had a world to heal
healing the blind, turning water into wine
making the devil cuss and squeal.
He came across a group of men
all set to stone a woman to death,
When they asked for His opinion
He sat back and took a deep breath.
He said,"Which one of you is without sin?
if you are then cast the very first stone,
but if you can't lay claim to that
I suggest you leave the woman alone"
CHORUS
Now Jesus came down to pay the debt that we could never pay,
to triumph over death itself and rise again on the third day.
If you ask Him He'll come into your heart and guide you every day,
but if you don't you're headed the wrong way.(end chorus)
Then the devil tempted Jesus
with a sneering, evil hiss.
He said,"Jesus, if you'll bow to me
I'll give you all of this."
But Jesus said to the devil,
"Get behind me you old snake,
you're future's been laid out for you
and it's the firey lake."
So the devil called his demons
and said, I'll spoil His plan,
Just who does He think He is
being called the Son of Man?
So the devil gathered his power
and began to plot and scheme.
I'll get Jesus crucified, he said,
then I'll listen to Him scream.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
But Almighty God hd other plans
for His One and only Son.
God sent down His Holy Spirit
and the devil had to run.
God knew that His Son, Jesus
was going to set the pace.
Because the devil's way meant destruction
for the whole human race.
God's Son would pay the debt for sin
owed by every man.
It was all part of the details
in God's redemption plan.
The devil screamed and cursed
because he now saw his defeat.
As he watched redeemed believers
lay their sins at Jesus feet.
So now you have a choice to make
if you want to be free from sin.
Jesus paid the price for you
so don't you let the devil win.
Jesus laid down His life for you and for me
just open up your heart and you will be free
Broken hearts and lives Jesus can mend
then the Holy Spirit can dwell within.
God's love is the most valuable gift..
God loves you and me with an everlasting love
He has drawn us with His loving kindness
God wants us to love our enemies and do good to all
and nothing to expect anything in return
Because He will reward us with His love and mercy
God's love is the most valuable gift to obtain from Him
His love is very different from human love.
It is unconditional love without feelings or emotions
His love is beautiful with divine power and peace
God's love is a vision of our life and power of nature
God is love and His wisdom and faith lives in our soul
God's grace is freely given to us and let His love come in
God truly is the comforter and we have to pray Him
God loved our universe and gave His begotten son
Jesus Christ and told us who ever believeth His son
should not perish, but having everlasting life.
Because of love for us, God's son Jesus Christ gave His
life on a cross at Calvary.

"I AM THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA, THE BEGINNING AND END OF ALL THINGS, SAYS GOD,
WHO IS THE LORD, THE ALL POWERFUL ONE WHO IS AND WAS AND IS COMING AGAIN."
Revelation 1:6
A promised son to Eve to crush the enemy it was not Cain, Abel nor Seth another seed given
in the image likeness of Adam the Last though it was not Noah's his name means rest nor his
son's shem Ham or Jepeth A promised Son is given beyond the flood he will not destroy the
earth the same Abram also called out his name abraham even though a promise and a son
all nations blessed Isaac laid for sacrifice God provided an another Lamb it was not Isaac's
Israel nor his first born while in Egypt all sons bow to Joseph it looked as if he died and was
torn away but it was to be for another Son born in his day through Jesse root came seven
and David reigned over promised land it was not he the Son to come was from heaven a
Son given his name wonderful counselor mighty God the Everlasting Father prince of peace

Amen
God is God and I am man
God made man from dirt and sand
God made woman from mans side
God gave woman for mans bride
God gave them both a garden fair
God gave it all but one tree that was there
God said don't eat or you will die
Satan came in and told woman a lie
Woman chose to eat and then did man
God locked the two out of that land
Man tilled the earth and his garden he grew
Woman was fruitful she bore two
Cain was a farmer and his seconds he brought
Able tended sheep and gave his best as one ought
Cain for selfishness God chastised
Able for faithfulness was rightouse in Gods eyes
Cain let his jealousy stew and brew
Abel his brother he viciously slew
God saw mans sin grow by leaps and bounds
God sent a flood to wash them from the ground
God saved Noah and his family
God saved some animals all that you see
Noah built the ark and in they went
Gods wrath poured out His anger he vent
God put a rainbow in the sky
God repented then promised to you and I
Never will I flood the whole world again
And on Gods oath you can depend
Man again forgot who he was
Man sinned as he pleased just because
God He knew just what to do
God sent His son for me and you
Woman chose to obey the Lord
God gave her His son and He she bore
Christ was born the sinless man
Christ stood where no mere man can
Christ took our sin He took it all
Christ let man take and beat Him raw
Christ let man torture and nail Him to a cross
Christ shed all of His blood so no one would be lost
Christ gave His life and was laid in a borowed tomb
Satan thought is was over man had met his doom
Christ in three days from that tomb He came
Man now had life from the lamb that was slain
Christ lives forever triumphant and true
Gods most preciouse gift for me and you
When I think of all, that God has done
From the mountains to the seas
I stand in aw of the God we serve
And bow down at His feet
For He looked down from Heaven above
To touch this heart of mine
He could have turned and walked away
But He allowed His Love to shine
He gave His Son to shed His blood
To pay the debt I owed
What greater gift could our God give?
Than His Son that He loved so
What greater Love did Jesus give?
To walk that lonely road
To suffer and die on that cruel tree
And carry all our load
I cry out to you My Lord and King
In praise and Love today
Thank you for your Love and Grace
In gratitude I bow and pray
I owe you my Life my heart my soul
For all you’ve done for me
Show me Lord what I can do
While on this earth for thee
Show them Lord your Precious Love
So all around will know
That you’re the Master Lord and King
And with you all Mercy flows
Shine down on us as the rainbow Lord
In wondrous color flow
Let all your children and nature sing
To the world who does not know...
Do you have a dream or an ambition
that one day you hope to achieve or do
then I have great news for you
if you turn to God and tell him exactly how you feel
he can take your dreams and ambitions and make them real
our hopes and dreams don't just have to stay in our hearts or in our mind
for it's in God that all our hopes, dreams and ambitions we can find
if you believe it in your heart and know that it's true
God can make all the impossible become possible for you
even if your faith is as small as a seed
God can make all those hopes and dreams succeed
God made all my hopes and dreams come true
and he can also make all the impossible things possible for you.
to all you wonderful poetry soupers everywhere
this great news I just had to share.
my son is going on a D. T. I. ( dream the impossible) trip with his youth group in may
and God made the trip possible How?
well here in UK, with sainsburys if they come late with your shopping they give you a ten
pounds
voucher
off the next shop you do on line, well on Tuesday mine was late so they gave me ten pounds
that evening I spoke with the youth leader about sorting a tent out for my son if I sorted the
finances out for him to go, he said yes sure they will be able to get a tent share
well on Wednesday morning I had a bank credit of sixty pounds, I wasn't due my wages yet
or anything, the money was in my bank it was something to do with a cold weather
payment
so this now totals seventy pounds, the weekend trip is 55 pounds and the bus from church is
additional ten pounds totaling 65 pounds now that's GODS' GRACE thanks to God my son will
be going of on his trip to dream the impossible. Amen.
With all his love God gave us his son to die for us.
What have we given in return nothing but a sinful world ?
For him to look down upon, His tears fall with every rain drop that falls.
God’s son was so pure that he gave us away to heaven, and words to follow by, which is the bible
but with all his love he sent Jesus.
Which some people don’t believe, but believe this he is coming.
With vengeance and for his people and take them home to
heaven ‘s holy city where we can live forever
I am the Son seeker
The dream keeper
Searching for light amongst the dark
Carving my niche
Leaving my mark
Trying to spread the living word
It is more than what you’ve heard
Walking on the brighter side
Each step filled with pride
A heart that is an open book
Never judging at first look
Knowing that tomorrow
Is an unwritten page
Having so much faith
Helps to quell my rage
Joining hands to pray to the Holy one
The only one
He the true dream weaver
And I am the Son seeker
