Poetry
The Song Of A Soul Set Free
In this Earth-Life, Lord,
when I have walked
as far as I can go on this road . . .
when I have lived
a life that mattered –
a life that has shared
The Difference
that Your Goodness and Your Love
have made in my life
with all who have passed by me,
then I shall welcome the day
when the spirit of my being
shall rise to be with You.
And if there is one thought
that I would leave
with those are still Earth-Bound,
It would be:
“Jesus loves me! This I know!”
for “my eyes have seen the glory”
of Your Goodness and Your Love
in Him.
My life has felt the difference
that Your Love through Him
can make!
When my spirit rises
to be with You, Lord,
I would leave
With those still Earth-Bound
not tears for myself,
nor for themselves –
but the Joy and Laughter
of You, Lord,
and the Bigness that
Life with You on the High Road
can be.
I would leave with them
The Truth
that there will come a day
when we shall have
all comprehension,
all knowledge of all things . . .
A day when we shall
understand the reasons. . .
A day when we shall
see You and Know You. . .
A day when we shall all
meet and touch
and Love each other
in the Joy of You . . .
As an eagle,
I shall lift and spread my wings . . .
And as I rise
To be with You, Lord,
I shall leave one more thing
with the Earth-Bound.
I shall leave
The Music
Of Your Goodness and Your Love:
The “Amazing Grace”
that knows no criteria for measure . . .
The “Love of God”
that cleanses and sets all men free. . .
The “Come to the Waters,
Stand by My Side”
that bids all men to follow. . .
The “Because He Lives”
that gives purpose and meaning
to life in Him . . .
and the “Hallelujah Chorus”
of a soul set free!

This is beautiful! It thrilled me as I read it. It reflects an intimate relationship with the Lord, which is what being a Christian is all about. And it makes me want to know the writer better!
What stood out to me the most was... my life felt the difference... out with the old and in with Jesus ! I liked what you had to say.
