When I Can See

When I can see all that, you've done for me I'll see the enemies you've slain so I Could walk a path that's lets me now be free When on the cross you died at Calvary Then three days and nights you were intombed On the 4th you arose in life anew This price it let eternal life resume Because Messiah paid this price That's due He shed His blood that was so free of sin He gave me what no other one could give So I could one day be a part of Him Now I know what it's like to really live For now I have all of eternity When I can see all that you've done for me Poem written 05/21/2022 for the Orphan Sonnet poetry contest Sponsored by Emile Pinet

Charles, this sonnet echoes the glorious thought that "God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God". As you mentioned in your comment, it is a joy to see God's truths elaborated upon in poetry; it is yet another way to praise Him who is worthy of all praise. Thank you for this lovely expression of the faith in sonnet form, and for your kind comments at my page. God be with you ~ John
