Poetry

---

You were dead at one time,
For your failures and sin;
With much immoral crime,
That corrupted within.

You followed the ways here,
And its dark persuader;
For God you did not fear,
Snubbing the Creator.

The ruler keeps shaping,
Those who refuse the Lord;
Helping in escaping,
As morals are ignored.

All of us once did live,
Among all these people;
But God will not forgive,
Since they snub the Gospel.

With their corrupt nature,
And profane desires;
Never a new creature,
Not a one acquires.

We deserve of the wrath,
Of God like the others;
But on the righteous path,
To Christ we are brothers.

God is rich in His grace,
With great love for us all;
He is there to embrace,
If we falter or fall.

We were dead from failure,
But has made us alive;
Through Christ our Savior,
We evermore survive.

For God has brought us back,
And gave a position;
With the insight we lack,
To help through transition.

God made us what we are,
Through faith we have been saved;
Healed us where we did scar,
Through His grace sins are paid.
