Never to busy for me

Missing image

 



Though he holds the worlds in space;
Makes the stars and sun to shine;
Holds each mountain in its place
And every atom he did design.

Though he commands the skies and seas
And tells the rocks when they should shout;
Tends the flowers and the trees
And sees no sparrow does without.

Though he brings the clouds and rain
And he doth cause the sun to shine;
Writes his glory in heaven so plain;
For all is made by his design.

Though he make the rivers to flow
And holds the world in his right hand
And all the flowers he does sow;
Holds in place each grain of sand.

Though he waters the grass with dew
And dresses the lilies to shame a king;
Causes the sun to rise anew
And teaches the birds how to sing.

Though he was busy, he saw ahead;
He gave me purpose in my mother’s womb
And knows every hair that’s on my head;
Sets the time when I'll go to the tomb.

Though all things exist just by his word
And he created all I can see;
Yet all my thoughts and prayers are heard;
For he's never to busy too listen to me.

    A wonderful write...

    A wonderful write; I really liked the fifth stanza:

    "Though he waters the grass with dew
    And dresses the lilies to shame a king;
    Causes the sun to rise anew
    And teaches the birds how to sing."

    Yet, most importantly, the last stanza typifies the Lor'd love for us, as He makes daily intercesions on our behalf.

    Amen! Sometimes it feels so incomprehendable how someone so great and powerful, takes time for us. What a comforting knowledge. You've put this message into beautiful words of praise. Wonderful poem.

    Lovely!

    A beautiful poem! I love the message you send with this!! You have great flow and rhyme here as well! Wonderful job!

    I will pick one thing out, though. But it's just a personal preference of mine.
    I feel that when we refer to Jesus, even with just a pronoun, it should be capitalized. =)

    Like I said above, don't feel you have to change anything, your poem is lovely no matter what you do!!

    Beautiful job!

    This is so lovely, a wonderful poem of the Lord and how He cares for you.

    Though all things exist just by his word
    And he created all I can see;
    Yet all my thoughts and prayers are heard;
    For he's never to busy too listen to me.


    He must have smiled when you penned this, I know I did.

    thoughtful and wise



    You have penned a wonderful poem of praise and inspiration. So full of wisdom, it must echo a grateful spirit. Your rhyme is very good and this poem flows well. A casual reading is not enough, it needs to be read and re-read. I am going to bookmark this one. You certianly live up to your nick-name with this poem.

    Very nice ~

    Beautiful poem my Friend ~

     

    There are 3 gramatical mistakes in this write....

     ...and they all have to do with the word *to*...or *too* ~

     

    Other than that...a wonderful tribute to our Lord ~

     

    Great job ~

    Very beautifull piece and I loved the last stanza rounding it off to a perfect end.
    Though all things exist just by his word
    And he created all I can see;
    Yet all my thoughts and prayers are heard;
    For he's never to busy too listen to me.
