CLEAR PRESENCE
Alcohol or drugs put your mind far away
To God’s dismay
He needs your clear presence
To fellowship with you
You need His love, too
As a father loves a child
You are not on your own
With Christ, your heart is his home
There is no sin remover at Wal-Mart
For crimson stains inside a heart
Salvation will make you feel fresh and clean
Never alone, with a companion not seen

DEAD TO SIN
Hold up your chin
Sin can’t hem you in
Accept Jesus as your Savior to be:
Dead to sin
Alive to Christ
Most of the time
You won’t sin or commit a crime
We have a choice to sin or not
Christians are not Righteous Robots
Jesus paid our debt, Death was the price
To give us Eternal Life
Heaven is yours for free
Jesus does not charge a fee
Choose today where eternally you will stay
Life’s last breath, could it be today?

GOD IS FOR YOU
When Life gets you down
You don’t know what to doRemember, God is for you
Don’t think you’re too short or tall
God doesn’t make mistakes
You are an original creation, not a fake
No matter what you look like
Or what you feel inside
God is for you
Whether you’re short, tallLittle or big
He gets who you are
You, he really digs
To be forgiven of sin
Open your heart
Let Jesus in

GOD LOVES YOU
Let God be your guide
He will keep you safe and sound
There is no Robin Hood to rescue you
God will see you through
In all that you do
When you feel blue
Who can you call on?
God, He loves you
He is always there
He always cares
He is never through with you
God loves who?
You, You

GOD’S TOUCH
So many injustices and problems in this world
From the government to the pulpitSome people are corrupt
Drugs, alcohol, illicit sex
The Devil’s Hex
Give Satan an inch, he will take a mile
Do wrong and make him smile
Slick Rick has your pick of evil to do
When the deed is done, he has more for you
To make a change in the world todayTake the time to kneel and pray
Picketing and rioting won’t accomplish much
This old world needs God’s touch
With supernatural power upon you
God has much he wants you to do
Don’t close out God
Let him in
To loose your desire to sin

JESUS IS REAL
No matter how I feel
Jesus, to me is very real
The Lord’s got a hold on me
Belonging to him, brings to my heart glee
Got some sin to loose?
Salvation, you must choose
Jesus died to set his “loved ones” free
Let Jesus bury your sins as deep as the sea
You can begin life anew
The Holy Spirit’s presence will
never leave you

LET JESUS IN
Dirty with sin?
Let Jesus in
He will change you within
A new, clean heart
A fresh start
Salvation through Christ
He paid the final price
Heaven is a cool place
Jesus has got you a space
Just repent of your sins
Accept heavenly love from above
Deal is done, when we accept God’s
son

LOVE ONE ANOTHER
Many of God’s creations have gone astray
Will you return to him today?Laden down with sin
You don’t feel clean within
Jesus can pierce a cold heart, like a dart
He can infuse it with love
Our Heavenly Father looks down from above
With such tender love
Maybe raindrops are His tears
Let Him have all your fearsGod has a special touch
He Loves You
You need him so much
Let God have you
When He is through
You will be right with Him
No need to sin
Please Love others Not just your sisters and brothers

NEW LIFE
Want your life to change?
Every day seems like the one before
Life is such a bore
Want to have fun?
You can, when you accept God’s only Son
His life unseen, will make your life gleam
Like a glistening reed in a pond
With Salvation, you will never have a closer bond
Your lifestyle should reflect a change of heart
Give up those bad habits; Ready to start?
Pray and fast to get results that last
Jesus wants to set us free from addictions
Believe me, this is not fiction

PRINCE OF THE AIR
Influence the world for good or bad
TV and movies do bothBeing a couch potato produces no mental growth
Too many crimes on TV today
Murder and crime is the Devil’s way
Don’t be in the Devil’s Club
The Prince of the Air is called Beelzebub
The Devil has an everlasting flame
For every shameful thing done in his name
It seems as if an R is a now a P.G.As bad as some movies are, they should be free
Nice people playing evil parts
They say they’re stretching they’re range
Therefore, they play someone deranged
Walt Disney would roll over in his grave
If he knew, how movies are now so depraved
Movies should promote everything good
Go only to clean movies; you know you should

SPIRITUAL FOOD
On God’s word please feed
This nourishment you really need
The Bible is spiritual food
Read it to get in a better mood
Scripture is heaven sent
God’s word is a love letter
With Jesus, Life gets better and better

SURRENDER TO CHRIST
Surrender to Christ, there is no better deal
If you have a wounded heart, God will heal
Forgiving us of our sin is his specialty
This Service is done for free
A new creation of God you can be
Salvation is a makeover of the heart
God transforms you into his work of art
Looking for Love in all the wrong places?
Jesus can fill up those empty spaces
In your heart, a holy spirit can live
Unending love, a heavenly father has to give

TENDER LOVING CARE
To others please show concern
They are more important than a pet or fern
People appreciate kind gesturesA smile, call or handshake
These things cannot be faked
Be a Hero and do a kind deed
Giving to others is planting a good seed
Everyone needs tender, loving, care
A lack of hugs is hard to bear
Nothing in this world can do
What these words can:“I Love You”
An old fashioned visit
A thing of the past
Will computer and cell-phone relationships last?
Loving others creates a universal bond
Doing a kind deed makes others fond
We all need tender, loving, care
Without it, life is like a nightmare

THE EYES OF THE LORD
Be modest in all that you do
The eyes of the Lord are upon you
God sees and knows all
Some people are depressed, others; having a ball
Jesus knows you through and through
That’s why he loves you
On the cross Christ died
Our sins covered, as they ripped his holy hide
His loving eyes scan the earth
Looking for those who want a “New Birth”
Christ’s Love is so great
Accept him now, why wait?

THE GIFT
Jesus died and rose from a tomb
His love can reach you in any room
If you accept His free gift
Your sins He will sift
God’s love is true
He will never leave you
He will take you to the Pearly Gate
Accept him now, before it’s too late
Hell is a final fate
Heaven is worth more than the entire Earth
Salvation is a “New Birth”
Repent of your sins, without delay
Let Jesus love you through each day

THE MAN UPSTAIRS
Jesus is your high priest
Before Him your sins are laid bare
On bended knee, if you pray
Jesus will help you without delay
The Man Upstairs listens to every need
He wants to solve your problems, indeed!
God almighty was born
To give you reform
Died on the Cross
Let Him be your Boss
If Jesus is the one you serve
People in authority, get the respect they deserve
Treat others like you want to be treated
Obey the Golden Rule
To keep from being a fool

THE SACRIFICE
The cross was heavy
The crown had many a thornWithout this sacrifice
We could not be reborn
New life you may have this day
If you turn from your worldly ways
Jesus is the answer for your every woe
On your team against every foe
If you need a miracle today
Get on your knees and prayThere will be no delay
Salvation takes a second
All God’s other work in a person’s life
Is done in his own sweet time
He can start or stop on a dime
God’s presence will be with you
Each moment, each day, each year
He will wipe away every tear Each saved person is like a newborn babe
A precious life that is brand new
Each redeemed day live as if the past is brand new, too

THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE HOME
Life is no problem
You think you got it all together You do whatever
And never say, “Never!”
You take no thought for others
Your sisters or brothers
Without faith in Christ
Life is like throwing dice
Win or loose, you’re on your own
I would not condoneTrying to make it alone
With Christ, you will have a home
His presence inside your heart
Beats any day at K-Mart™
With him, you will get it together
You will make it in any kind of weather
Never alone, No place like home

TRUE LIBERTY
Gods’ love for thee
Is as big as the sea
He knows you all by name
Loves us all the same
God created us to be like him
Without salvation; helpless against sin
The Statue of Liberty in New York City
To some seems strange, to others pretty
No government, statue or state
Can set us free, from our final fate
Heaven or Hell awaits us all
Choose your destination and do not stall
Jesus can break our bondage to sin
Just let him in
A Christian has “True Liberty”
Sins forgiven, loved, set free

WATER OF LIFE
Beware and never dare
To drink and drive
It just doesn’t jive
Alcohol and drugs don’t mix
Accept Christ, and still get your kicks
Have clean fun, with Christ, God’s son
Spiritual life is within your soul
Doing drugs can take its toll
Drink the water of life
In it, there is not strife
Someone would not start a fight with you
If they had a glass of water or two
Please don’t drink and drive a Volkswagen Bug
Hand your keys to a friend, you might get a hug
Drinking and driving has a tragic fate
Accept Christ now, to enter the pearly gate

A Word from the Author
My poems are God-inspired, shedding light on opposing spiritual powers in
our world. I hope to stir up feeling of love, acceptance and a deep need for arelationship with Jesus. Most of my poetry is about Jesus and His love for
us. However, we should not be unaware of Satan’s power at work to keep us
in bondage and destroy one’s desire to receive him as Savior. Jesus came to
set us free from addictions and give us Abundant Life (the Fruits of the
Spirit, which are: Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness,
Gentleness and Self-Control) now and Eternal Life in Heaven. Each poem is
unique and may or may not apply to you personally. The poem, God Loves
You was published in The Sound of Poetry (poetry on cassette) by the
National Library of Poetry in 1999.
