Poetry
Inside of Me
I may be short in stature,
Or tall as an oak tree,
Don't judge me by my clothing,
It's what's inside of me.
I may be black as midnight,
Or white as fallen snow,
It's not my color that you see,
It's what's inside of me.
I struggle to express it,
Or show it skillfully,
Bear with me in my folly,
It's what's inside of me.
I wasn't trained at Harvard,
Don't have any degrees,
But one thing God has given,
And it's inside of me.
There is within me passion,
Entombed beneath my skin,
Uh, excuse me I'm still searching,
for ways to enter in.
Tried many combinations,
None of them proved right,
But now I've found the key,
To what was locked up tight.
The key is plain and simple,
The key has left His trace,
The key transformed my inside,
Into a holy place.
The key came down from heaven,
To give His life for me,
And once I let Him in,
He made my blind eyes see.
I love my Lord and Saviour,
Whose name is Jesus Christ,
I made a vow to serve Him,
Because He paid the price.
