Evangelism

by Tiny Reader   Jul 15, 2006


Lord whisper softly
So only I hear
Protect my sweet eyes
From that which I fear.

Raise my fallen chin
And hold it up high
Give me the courage
That You hold inside.

Open up my trust
To those who deserve,
And teach me patience
Of which I've observed.

I give thee my life
I inherit You this;
All I've accomplished
And all that I wish.

So sweet is the sound
Of silence within
Now that I'm peaceful
And free from the sin.

The Lord whispered softly
But I clearly heard
And now I'm protected,
As I spread His word.

    "Raise my fallen chin
    And hold it up high
    Give me the courage
    That you hold inside."

    ^very beautiful stanza, something that I can relate to. I can just feel the Lord's finger underneath my chin, raising it so that I can look into His eyes to be reassured of His love. I am truly grateful that God gave you this poem to write and for you to share it with me!!

    My only critique would be:

    "And now I'm protected,
    And I spread his word"

    ^I'd turn the second 'and' into an 'as' so it goes "And now I'm protected
    As I spread His word"
    And to capitalize all references to God such as the "Yous" and "Hims" kinda thing, if you know what I mean lol.
    But other than that, perfect poem. Flowed very good and beautiful descriptions.

    Much Love and God Bless,

    Sarah --
    You did a beautiful job on this, honey. The rhyming didn`t seem forced at all, and neither did the flow. The spelling and grammar are perfect. =D I`m not sure really what else to say, except, 5/5. Keep this up.

    Love Much,

    I really loved this one. The message is so simple yet so powerfull.

    The lord whispered softly
    But I clearly heard
    And now I'm protected,
    And I spread his word

    I adore this stanza I think it is just so sweet and joyful.
    The whole thing is a delight.
