Sweet Salvation

One day God came to talk with me,
He said may I sit with you a while,
you look like you could use a friend,
it's been awhile since I saw smile.

His loving voice calmed me down,
as He wrapped his arms around me,
as my tears rolled down my cheeks,
Jesus held out His hands to me.

He said give me all your burdens,
I shall dry up all of your tears
I am here to give you comfort,
let me take away all your fears.

Jesus said I've waited a long time,
just to hear you call out my name,
and to hear you ask for forgiveness,
and to give me your sins and shame.

Your new life with me begins today,
as you accept me into your heart,
let the Holy Spirit fill your body,
as your glorious Salvation starts.

Jesus said welcome to God's family,
come cleanse your soul and mind,
live a new life of righteousness,
leave all of the wickedness behind.


 




 




 


Author notes

I feel so full of the Holy Spirit today, I was thinking of last July 16, the day I was saved. It was a glorious day. My life is so full of love for Jesus now. My life is wonderful. God Bless all my friends who have encouraged me and  helped me be a better Christian.

    I'm glad you found such comfort. Very well written poem, good structure and the rhyming works well and doesn't sound forced. It really flows together well, it takes a good poet to do such a thing. x

    Thank you Charles for the warm and lovely comments. This was a day that is etched in my heart. There is no other feeling quite like it, the moment God enters into your heart with His amazing Love. The only feeling of joy I can compare it to is the births of my children. God is so awesome. As you say WooHoo!!! Time to rejoice, Rejoice. I hope you have a beautiful Godlike day my friend. God Bless, Sandy
