The Lord God lights for us a loving path
His peace and splendor passed onto us all
Spirits reborn in baptismal bath
No longer in sin, we answered His call
God's goodness and love forever abounds
He touches us through our hugs and kisses
Trumpets of the Heavenly Host resounds
Such sweet attention, a blessing this is
Beautiful and loving father is He
His children are the apple of His eye
He loves each one of us, all equally
The same from us, wants our great Lord on High
He is the author of all that is good
He gives us the way to live as we should.

Yet, He is also the God of Wrath
We're reprimanded when we fall
Oh, how His nature confounds
As His love dismisses
And so lost are we
Betrayed, we cry
As all would
Without
Him.

The truth is that His light can never dim
His goodness can't be bound in unjust rings
A great ruler is righteous to the brim
As sovereign He rules over all things
He is the Prince of Peace and King of Kings.

(This was done for a challenge at another poetry board and the form is a hybrid mix of sonnet, nonet, tercet-couplet);o)
