Destined for hell, like the devil who fell, I reached out to the One who is brighter than the sun… and Oh, my, see the beauty of God’s Son! – by poet
He owns the world, yet came to reveal
the music of heaven – the grace that can heal
He knows the heart’s worst, all the despair
the story of a sin that should be covered in prayer
He sees the darkness, but He is the true light
while I may not grasp it all, He silences the night
He colors the spirit in a glowing resilience
promising each follower, they’ll know His brilliance
He is like the wind, singing through the boughs
seeking the spirit who His love will surely rouse
He brings the still to the most beautiful story
where He is, there is the gentling of His glory
He leaves my heart feeling like I should praise
with inklings of light to enchant and amaze
He gifts the whole world with such precious peace
nothing on earth can cause His mercy to cease
He blesses the soul with a faith that never leaves
as the thunders roll, His presence never grieves
He is light and faith, joy, hope, love and solace
rising from the tomb, proving His light is flawless
He makes the blind to see, the darkness turn to light
while some disbelieve, I have faith His love is right
He destined souls to meet with the One who restores
with His grace and mercy, He opens even locked doors
He is the reason I know what it means to love unconditionally
beyond where words can go, He isn’t just the traditionally
He is the promise of a heaven where we are saved from hell
leaving the darkness once destined to the angel who fell
He reached out to my heart with assurance that He is the One
even when I feel I don’t matter, He shows me what love has done
He is the man, Jesus, who silences the winds with His voice
when all is said and done, I know His grace was my only choice
