Poetry

---

I had been made a poet,
By God as a gift of grace;
Talent on loan for merit,
Helping others what they face.

I am the least of the saints,
As this grace has been given;
For preaching without restraints,
So others get to Heaven.

Enlighten the mystery,
Of the hidden wealth of Christ;
That God made through history,
And of what was sacrificed.

Manifold wisdom of God,
Might be known to those that rule;
Heavenly places to laud,
And not to become a fool.

As the eternal reason,
Christ Jesus is our Lord;
Realizing what God has done,
So we are in one accord.

We are bold with confidence,
Through our faith in the Lord;
Although some would take offense,
Consequences are ignored.

I ask you not to lose heart,
Over any suffering;
In which your glory will start,
The Lord will be answering.
