"IN HIS ARMS!"
© 2002 Patricia L. Carpenter
{Poem Book 8}
Safe in the Arms of JESUS
close to His Precious Side,
Because I chose Him as my Savior ~
with Him I'll forever abide.
Up in Heaven forever
'Eternal Life' is mine,
Because I chose The Master ~
to walk in His Will Divine.
Leading me ever 'forward'
teaching me 'how' to live,
'Self '-less & 'full of Mercy'
always ready to 'forgive'!
Misunderstanding His Direction
I never want to be,
So I must seek His Face right early
down on bended knee.
Look for Him at the altar
& ~in~ His Holy Word,
For thinking there is 'another way' *
is totally - absurd!
Reach for His Hand of Mercy
believe Him to be 'True',
Remain 'full of Joy' & 'Faithful'
in ~whatever~ you choose to do.
Your 'vocation' in life doesn't matter *
~let 'CHRIST' be your Guide,
He will 'direct' you
& stay right by your side.
Walking through 'life' together
In His Arms ~ to stay,
Will help those 'doubts & fears'
to ~forever~ flee away!
