O' sweet Jesus,
please comfort me
in my hour of need.
Lay Your hand upon
my fevered brow
and ease the pains
of my heart and soul.
Give of Your strength
so that I shall not crumble
as did the Walls of Jericho.
Hold me in Your loving embrace
so that I might rest in peace.
Shine Your Light before me
to guide me to Heaven's Gate.
Surround me with
a choir of angels to
lift my spirit high.
Quench this thirst from Thy
infinite well of love.
Quell the river
of fear and sorrow
that permeates my being.
Beam Your smile into
the very core of me.
Bless me, sweet Jesus.
Bless You, beloved Son of God.
Amen.
+*+*+

SharaRose ~

I wonder where these come from some times! There I was, singing and happy as a lark, and I wrote this sad, and desperate plea to our sweet Jesus! Maybe I'm sad and don't even know it! lol

Pleasant dreams,
EA

Linda...A beautiful prayer poem. Enjoyed very much...Paul
Like you said in your reply to SharaRose sometime you don't know where the poems come from I to feel the same way about some of mine, then I realize they came from God.
He gives us the words and we are his ink pin. Thanks for sharing...Paul

(tears fall down my cheeks) Hey, where's the crying smiley with a smile instead of a frown? (big hugggsssssss) This made me cry because I love Him so much and dedicate my heart to Him and though I cry in sadness that He had to suffer so much pain and agony, I also cry in joy because I know He did it for us and I don't believe there will ever be a moment of heroic love ever like this, and also because you have one of the most golden hearts I have ever known and your love brings me to tears! (wipes tears) He will always grace you with His love, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
