A Poem

Postby Silent Hunter » Sat Jan 07, 2006 11:37 pm

Well, I wrote this a while back, and JadeFox encouraged me to post it so _ -


My Prayer
I see and try again to grasp,
This life you’ve given me,
So willingly, you died that day,
So I could be set free.

How could you love me? I have sinned,
No, I’m not worthy Lord,
Yet still you love and care for me,
Why should I gain reward?

Through blinding tears I come to you,
And in your arms I’m held,
I confess yet one more sin,
You say that all is well.

Thank you, Lord, Oh, thank you, Lord,
For all that you have done,
I never could repay you, so,
For now this race I run.

To you, all glory I now give,
You know I deserve none,
For when I get to heaven,
You will count what I have done.

And when my name is called by you,
I will fall down at your feet,
For never a moment will there be,
That could ever be so sweet.

[color=#000000]Me: "Hey, what's her last name?"

Brett: "Doesn't matter. It's going to change anyway."

Brett: "Why do they call it tourist season if you can't shoot them?"

I'd say you have a poem on your hands. *snaps fingers*

Is there a school competition you can enter that in, or something?

Lil bro Zilch can be the best man, it'll be an explosive ceremony. Everyone is invited! We'll serve poutine at the reception, Straylight can DJ, and Shatterheart can start a mosh pit!
Gypsy, in acceptance wrote:Explosives and poutine? Alright!
Hey... she said it... :p

I'm not sure ... I've never really done poetry and this was my first real try.

hey, if you wanna do something with that poem, check this website out:
http://www.utmostchristianwriters.com/utmost.htm

I submitted a poem to them recently. The contest is coming to a close soon though.

Anyway, that is a really good poem! It's so true....
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone
And so hold on when there is nothing left in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!' ...you'll be a Man, my son!

pertty good, keep it up.
Tis No Fool to lose what he can not keep to gain what he can never lose.
What does it profit a man to gain the World yet lose his soul.
Choose Life that you Might live.
