Repenting Poems - Poems about Repenting


Many Thanx Dean Smith-Belton

I
A few weeks ago, he gave a message
I barely contained tears, repentant heart
Yes, I was in church, and he's an elder
Refuses the title of pastor. Deserves it ever
My wife and I can talk, fellowship, listen
To a man - divorced 20 years - pure
As far as this world goes, purer still
In studying, glorying in God's known

Do Not Work For Food That Spoils

I
Don't work for food that spoil; anoint with oil

Premium MemberJesus Meet Me In the Closet-

Oh, Jesus (Jesus)
I come before you in my dirty rags;
I am wearing my sin clothing;
Jesus, meet me in the closet;

I am praying;
Lord I am undressing;
Naked I be mentally freed;
My sinful(sin filled) clothes, lay on the floor;

Jesus, meet me in the closet;
Meet me in the closet,
Meet me in the closet,
There are no clothes hanging on the

Premium MemberCome Ever To Repenting--

Ever
Ever closer come
Come unto my freedom arms
Come run from
Away
Won't you come
till your freedom moans
Grows inside your perfect mind
Come, come go with me now
Stand, stand up for what you believe is HOW!!
How is the prize to be won
If your ever sober, yet drunk in love with yourself
Selfish, delirious, burden sown
Life is torn
Never
Never closer to come
Embraced, encapsulated

Premium MemberWe Our Souls Will Spend Our Time Repenting

we our souls will spend our time repenting 
but the body of truth always comes to light 
in drawing an end to come with true believers 
so they can see the many faces of the Devil 

greed in this world money takes over always
as they worship first with the Devil’s tools

Repenting Peter El Greco

since as
everything is Uttered
a land to even up
the eye
you touch grope about
the walls
more and more high
(on) cracks
the third road is the hardest
nowhere somewhere
the third road is the easiest
am I
I
cursed
cursing
swear
in net
(Peter)

“that the mighty angel tugs
along with net of fishermen”*

Repenting Enduring Repeating

Repenting Enduring Repeating

Lost in an abyss of thoughts
Disappointments oblivion brought.
Self-centered loathing caught.
This, instead of perfection sought.

Confusion instead of understanding –
Weariness instead of perkiness –
Paranoia instead of certainty –
This, instead of gladness sought.

Why?  I read words and want to cry.
I seek hope, but wish to die.
I have lost the will to try.
This, never-ending onslaught…

Bombards my

The Repenting Sinner

for so many years I've walked about
carrying my load of sin.
getting high...a constant battle
i just cant seem to win.
Every night i pray o'lord
forgive me....make me strong
but when i wake i think no more
once again my choice is wrong.
why..why cant i stop i ask myself
make it all just go away
i want to be so much more
