Was It Called Love

28 February 2006


What was faith
this honour to give
Words to understand
things that were to live

The kind of faith given in hope
this charity of Jesus Christ to hold
Such was a feeling in being a believer
not to be void of happiness or true gold

So was it true - His death was part of a plan
this point of time to be crucified and true
In standing up for conviction as to lies
others might just say would never do

Nails to hang by in evidence scarred
hands pierced to the point of blood
Saved from dishonour - safe to be real
this faith - was it called love



“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him
should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
John 3: 16 KJV

There are many kinds of love...some heal at a touch, I know....because I have given that touch. Some harm at a touch and this I know too well....because I've also harmed.

But there is one love, one touch, that always heals.

An interesting group of comments given, for what took 3 to 4 minutes to compose and was done completely thoughtless of the final outcome

I do not think poetry , I am not even sure if I can write poetry.
