Jesus came
He took my sins
and hid them for all time.

Now I know
that I am free
to be forever thine.

Weep Not

Hey all! This is just a rough experiment. Let me know what you think. The music is from Vivaldi's 'Winter'

Easter Tale

Watch Him riding on a donkey,
the great and glorious King of Kings.
Lift up your voice, shout your praises
to Him, our Mighty Majesty.

See Him eating with His followers
as He prepares them for their tasks.
Witness this King serving others,
He became servant to mankind.

Look on as His friend betrays him,
handing Him over to His foes.
Notice that He does not struggle
against the trial that was to come.

Hide your face as we condemn Him
and take a murderer in His place.
Cry with shame as we insist that
He is put on a cross to die.

Gasp in surprise as He returns
three days after His painful death.
Thank Him, praise Him, tell the story
of His amazing sacrifice.

The Lost

Buddahs and incense
Feng Shui and crystals
all set to mislead the lost.

Helpless souls
searching for truth
but shunning where truth can be found.

TV and radio
laughing at Christians.
Satan tries bringing us down.

Modern media
drawing the lost
claiming to fill all their needs.

Stars and celebrities
stealing the show
gaining from misdirected worship.

Jesus and God
the Holy Trinity
drawing the lost to their love.

Jesus and God
loving the lost
ready to fulfill their lives.

Tragedy

This world is full of tragedy
that we have never seen
despair and broken hearts
loss and broken dreams

and though we all are hurting
we stumble and we fall
we keep our saddness hidden
we show it not at all

all of us are broken
our lives just one big mistake
still we journey on
our happiness is fake

this world is full of tragedy
from which noone can hide
though we attempt to fix it
we are still broken inside

we patch our holes with fantasies
we believe will make us new
yet these patches cave in on us
and leave bigger holes in you

there is a cure out there
if you search through all your strife
and put your hope in Jesus
He will save your life

you cannot escape this tragedy
just look at poor old Job
but trust in good old Jesus
He will be your hope.

haha just wrote that then while deciding what to put in a post. Go me! It is very rare that I write a RHYMING poem! As you can probably tell! And yes, I am studying the book of Job in Bible study at the moment lol!
