Standing in God's country is where I am,
Just me and my Lord hand in hand,
This place is so beautiful I want to cry,
But the loving father wipes the tears from my eyes.

Th stand with God is an awesome place to be,
Its better than race cars and diamond rings,
Standing with God is an awesomeplace to be,
Because of his love that will set you free.

For I knew a man that died on the cross,
Who died for the world, the confused, and the lost,
With every drop of blood another life was saved
That is one reason I am here today.

This man I know is my very best friend,
His name is Jesus Christ and his love is without end,
Standingin God's country is where I am
Just me, God, and Jesus all hand in hand.

This is a beautiful tribute to our Lord Jesus Christ. I'm glad that you have His fire burning inside of you, and that you've shared it with all of us.

this is very sentimental
the hand in hand unity is full of imagery
i like that youre more focused on symbols of faith rather than material things!
great poem

This was great jytree. Nice to see you back.

this is a poem that i'm sure you're very proud off, and you should be.  There's no wrong in sharing our faith    thanks for the enlightenment
