Claiming Salvation What does God think when He looks down And sees the crime in every town? How disappointing we must be To He, who made us joyfully And yet He never turns away. He walks beside us through each day And when He sees an act that shows A heart that's kind, it's then He knows His teachings are still heard by some. Upon that day, when He is come To weigh our faults, where will we stand, In gaining Paradise He's planned? I like to think there's just a few Who would not qualify.Will you And will I too, be one to claim Salvation, in our Savior's name? |

This poem was not exactly technically sophisticated with respect to the art of poetry itself. However, I did like the heart of its message. 2+2=5 for sufficiently large values of 2 |
