[hometext] => If you have any questions about this poem or how to receive Christ, feel free to email me at mcloysoccer@hotmail.com.
[bodytext] => I run, Absentmindedly now, Towards the goal of many, Found by few, But still found I find hope in the thought of the very end I lose track of time Every step in the wind No one knows where I’m going Or where I’ve been But I run just the same Nothing leads me to sin I run from the world Not knowing at all Just what to do I run but still fall I fall I get up and dust myself off I fall but I do not get caught up in the dust The dust of those before me, with me, and behind The dust of the sinners, the unbelieving, the blind I do not go where the world has gone Instead I travel with God’s only son Jesus Christ leads the way At times I may not see him I may go astray But I will still believe in the father and the son The Holy Ghost will lead me when there is no one I still run although slightly distressed I do not fret for God is my fortress Strongly smelling of sweet perfume Never letting me get tied and consumed I do not let myself get caught up with the world Instead I run away from the crooked and curled The sinners may try to lead Christians astray But we must stand strong for there will come a day When we will all meet the Father Stand in front of His thrown We will all sing to Jesus He will call us His own Gather up the sinners Leave no one behind For a world forgotten Is a world for the blind Do not let satan bring you down Instead stand firm in your faith For you stand on holy ground Let the demons tremble At the sound of His name Let them all shout and scream in vain For the Lord is the power The all mighty heavenly host He will not leave you or forsake you He is the Holy Ghost No one can forget what cannot be forgotten The lord Jesus Christ is like a shirt made of cotton Durable and strong Surrounding you He’ll forgive anything You ask Him to The one thing in life that hinders many He will say strongly, “What is there to worry?” He defeated these things on Calvary Where He died for you And He died for me He died for the hindered He died for the free No one can deny His power and strength He healed many From death to headaches He can do all things Make anything right He can take on your enemies When you cannot fight He conquers what cannot be conquered by men And He does these things again and again Over and over He shows his power Yet men still seem to love and devour The sinful things this world throws our way These things that lead us to go astray I guess that is why I run so quickly To escape those things that might overtake me I run to outrun the things of the world But all I need to do is find strength in the Word Jesus gives strength to those who are weak He takes the trouble, the pain, the heartache If only we looked to Him for advice Instead of turning to men who act like mere mice We would not trouble ourselves with sin We would defy it over and over again So I stop running, I look sin in the face I tell it to leave me Jesus lives in this place! I watch as sin runs faster than me The only difference is, it is at a retreat Away from the Lord So mighty and strong I asked, He provided I said I was wrong He forgave me the second I asked for it He never thought twice He didn’t have to think the tiniest bit Of whether or not to forgive his son He did it before I could count to one I’m no longer running But walking the road That leads to heaven Where do you want to go? Do you want to spend your life running from sin? Or would you rather find comfort that comes from deep within? Would you rather travel the highway to hell? Or spend life listening to angels play their bells The choice will always come down to you You can do whatever you want to do I am just saying walking is better Than running toward something You’ll never find Toward something that only lives in your mind If you would like to turn from sin Just ask me I’ll tell you again and again Ask the Lord Jesus to enter you heart And then after that you can finally start A relationship with the creator of heaven and earth You will be friends from the second of your rebirth Not literally speaking of coarse But more like a colt turns into a horse You will mature and grow in the Lord You will never ever get bored Of listening to songs that praise His name You will stand in awe as He heals the lame He is a mighty, powerful, king King over them all We, one day will sing So join me now in rejoicing His name For Jesus Christ will forever reign.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
