If I give all, I can move mountains. With God, my joy flows like fountains. His love empowers my every being. He has an eye that’s forever seeing. No temptation to big or trial to long That I cannot overcome if I believe this song. Gods “Amazing Grace” that continues to save. It breaks my heart that life He gave. Never a love more strong and true Will ever be as forgiving for a wretch like me and you. God gave us power over all things worldly. All I have to do it seek His will for me. My strength comes from He who’ll make This soul humble for Him to take. He can reach the sick and torn And show them in heaven they’ll never mourn. No tear shall fall or evil seep in, Because His blood washes away my sin. |

Welcome to Passions - enjoy yourself. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

Redneck, Amen. My poem of similar content was titled "Strengthen Me" in Spiritual Journeys Forum. You said it well and we think in similar ways. Welcome and hope you grow to love it here. Watch out for Sunshine's surprise. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
