St Matthew Poems | Examples

Generous Heart-

I must have a generous heart
I once was a foreigner, an upstart
Now I am birth-born again
Now I am a new and changed man

I must have a forgiving spirit
I must listen to peoples pleads and cherish
All their cries and wailings
I must keep God’s commandments

I must have a generous heart
I once was a foreigner, an upstart
Now I am birth-born again
Now I am a new and changed man

This I must do, why, because
I will be treated as I have been treating others

St. Matthew 7:2

Christ Isn'T Here-He's Risen

He isn’t here;
He isn’t here;
He HAS RISEN;
Jesus has given
Given His Spirit, back to the Father

He has callin His reign on Hold
For He’ll be coming back
He shall be back
To march His army of angels
He will be back
Yes, He’ll be back
It is set in stone

He isn’t here;
He isn’t here;
He HAS RISEN;
Jesus has given
Given His Spirit, back to the Father

Heaven and Earth He’ll rule
He is risen, from the dead
Just as He said
Would happen rose He raised up high
He is risen from the dead, yet alive He shall rise
He is risen, He is risen
Come see where he laid
Yet, He’s risen He’s no longer here

He isn’t here;
He isn’t here;
He HAS RISEN;
Jesus has given
Given His Spirit, back to the Father

-St. Matthew 7:8

Unjust Sinner Forgiven- I Will Let My Good Deeds Shine

I am unjust;
But with a touch;
A right choice;
I'll obey, change my way;
For in the same way;
On this day...
I will let my good deeds shine;
Shine out for all to see;
So that everyone will praise;
The Father,
My Father
Father God;
Hallelujah;

He Is Not Gone He Is Risen-

O Mary, why do you weep;
It's just as He said

HE IS NOT GONE HE IS RISEN

O disciples why do you speak

People of the nations, why do you disbelieve
The angel confirmed what Jesus said..

He is risen!

HE IS NOT GONE HE IS RISEN

Risen from the dead! 
Just as He said would, happen
Come, come inside the grave see where His body was laid 
He is not here, He has risen, risen, 

HE IS NOT GONE HE IS RISEN

He isn't here!
He is gone risen!

HE IS NOT GONE HE IS RISEN

From the dead, risen 
Just as he said!
He's not dead!

HE IS NOT GONE HE IS RISEN

Help Us Lord

Pray more worry less
About the things of this world
God’s got this
And as caretakers we are
Doing a poor job
Help us Lord
Our pure is poison
For our poison is pure
Going back to Jesus is the cure
God’s blessings are never ending
And for this I am assured
Pray more worry less
About the things of this world
God’s got this
And as caretakers we are
Doing a poor job
Help us Lord

Just Ask---

What would I have to do
And what would happen
If I would just ask
Then I will then receive
And if I would just stop, rest, and breathe;
Then I'd believe
So ask just ask God just ask Him
   for what you need, what you want
What do you need of...just ask

What are you seeking
What are you hoping for dreaming
If I would just ask
Then I will then receive
And if I would just stop, rest, and breathe;
Then I'd believe
Just wait and receive may come instantly
Or later on in time
So ask just ask God just ask Him
   for what you need, what you want
What do you need of...just ask
Wait and believe then receive

All this sounds physical which can be
   but it can be also be spiritual
It's all in His word that
If you knock, the door shall be opened

Then I'd believe
If I ask just ask God just ask Him
   for what we need, what we want
All I need do is you need of...just ask
All we need to,  do is just ask

Take

TAKE

Take no thought on tomorrow
Tomorrow is for tomorrow
And it thinks for itself
And take Jesus foe He says
Take this yoke upon
Allow the Son to give and not take
He's our redeemer for heaven sake
My Lord also says take and eat of His bread
Feed of my body consume it into your soul
Take my yoke upon you
Take my yoke upon you
Take my yoke upon you
It's gonna make you whole
Take and take heed Jesus yoke upon you
Take heed that you do not your alms before men
Be aware and careful...
Take

Pray More Worry Less

PRAY MORE WORRY LESS

when  you're just talking to Jesus
And you just can't believe it 
Pray more worry less

when things on the job go long and wrong
And  you just can't believe it
Pray more worry less

when based in problems 
none of them you can't solve them
Pray more worry less

no job
hardly enough money
by yourself,lonely
Pray more worry less
when the pains of life get you down
and your passions for life can't be found

when based in problems 
none of them you can't solve them
Pray more worry less

when things on the job go long and wrong
And  you just can't believe it
Pray more worry less

10-22-14: In the Cathedral of St Matthew the Apostle

In the beautiful, grand stillness 
Of a place for the transcendent, 
Like a lately-faded illness 
Seems the ugliness of now,
And I dare not look behind me, 
Lest the simpering of the finite, 
In the form of unctuous daylight 
Beat its hatred on my brow.

The solemnity enthralling 
Captivates imagination,
And I hear the ages calling
That wed purity and youth;
And I dream, however briefly, 
That the evils that surround me, 
That the hostile world around me 
Vanishes for want of truth.

Forgive

St. Matthew
	Forgive others
	As I have forgiven you

He Was Here Before, and Is Coming Back Again

It is in black and white, and in plain view. 
The birth is described in the Gospel of St. Matthew. 
He came to save the earth and his fellow men. 
It was in a town called Bethlehem way back when. 
Jesus gave his life for us, but is coming back again.
