Thank you Lord

colly wally

Thank you Lord for your goodness,

For the love you have for me,

A love so great, so endless,

deeper than the deepest sea.

___

 Thanks for the peace that knowing you brings,

So that my heart’s at rest;

No matter what the problem is,

I know it’s for the best.

___

 Thank you too for mercy,

That saved me from a fate

That’s worse than death; my sin was black,

My heart was filled with hate.

___

 But I came to you and asked for help.

You saw my need and then,

You changed my heart, and put me on

The path of life again.

___

 Knowing you is just so great,

That I can’t take it in.

And I thank you Lord, that if you’re with me,

I can’t help but win.

___

 For you’re not like a poor weak man,

No, you won’t change your mind.

Your patience, love and mercy

Will always be the kind

___

 That lasts for all eternity,

and covers all my needs.

Thank you Lord forever

For your gracious mighty deeds,

___

 The deeds of love that sent your Son,

To open up a way

For such as me to lose my guilt.

Now, how can I repay

___

 For such a love? I simply can’t.

So instead, I’ll say,

“Thank you Lord”. I’ll thank you

Through the eternal day.

    First let me welcome you to P & P I hope you enjoy the site. You have written a nice piece of spiritual poetry, its rhyme and rhythm are good and not forced. You obviously have deep religious beliefs and have shared those beliefs well with us. BF
