"THE 'SEED' OF TRUTH!"
© 1998 Patricia L. Carpenter
{Poem Book 4}
The 'seed' of TRUTH in us
must be 'plowed up' by GOD Himself,
For it to come to 'fruition'
lest we be 'put up' on a shelf.
Declared 'useless' in The Kingdom
'unable' to see The Light,
For the 'darkness of sin' has covered up
the TRUTH ~ "CHRIST won the fight!"
He shed His Blood for us
upon a cruel cross of shame,
So that we could wear
His Precious Holy Name.
The price He paid to set us 'Free'
Was His 'BLOOD' shed ~ on Calvary!
And once 'this TRUTH' ~
shines into our heart
The 'Light' of GOD springs forth
& we n'ere from Him ~ want to depart.
For we now 'understand' & KNOW
Just how much He 'Loves' us so!
Oh, dear Lord, please 'plow' ~
through sorrow, grief & pain,
So MANY 'lost souls' will come
& claim Your Precious Name!
