My Redemption

Lost in a world that did not care,
I felt lost and all alone each day,
God's door would not open for me,
I was a sheep that lost its way.

I began to look up to the sky,
were God and Heaven  truly real,
my friend began to talk to me,
as I wondered I began to feel.

The Lord was waiting for my redemption,
my life was ready to be reborn,
I was ready for my Salvation,
my life felt so tattered and torn.

God spoke to me one summer night,
His spirit touched deep in my soul,
God cleansed my body of all my sins,
He made me brand new, He made me whole.

As I prayed God lifted all my burdens,
My redemption came through God's love,
my Salvation has brought me eternal life,
Amen,I will die to live in Heaven above.

    Thank you so much for the wonderful comment. I owe my Salvation to a wonderful poet on here, live4eternity. He led me to God's door so I could open it. Take care, Sandy

    This is such a wonderful tribute to our mighty Lord's saving grace beautifully written. I especially like the last line, for it is that one with which I so identify. Well done, poet.

    Good luck in the contest! Love and hugs, BonnieQ

    Sandy, so beautiful...what makes this so amazing is the part of realization, the moment of: God spoke to me one summer night, His spirit touched deep in my soul and that's what makes this so beautiful! Best of luck in the contest, Ann
