I am making it known to you, The Good News as already told; In which your faith is based as true, As the story was to unfold. You have been saved by this Gospel, If you hold onto what has been taught; And to spread to other people, For all the love that they have sought. If you believe without thinking, The passion of the Lord means naught; Like on sinking sand and sinking, For not realizing what it brought. I passed onto you crucial points, Of doctrine that I have received; That the blood of Jesus anoints, If in truth you firmly believed. Jesus Christ died to take away, Our sins as the Scriptures said; From temptation that makes you stray, Being caused by Satan that fed. As virgin born within the womb, And brought up in a human form; From the cross then placed in a tomb, Bringing peace after the storm. Jesus Christ was brought back to life, Seen by five hundred believers; After suffering through the strife, As they were all made receivers. As a child untimely born, Given life He appeared to me; Soon in Heaven I will sojourn, In front of Jesus I will see. I am persecuted in this life, Because of all my love of Christ; But His kindness helps through the strife, For all that I have sacrificed. So whether someone else or me, This is the message that I bring; Trusting in what I cannot see, Unto the cross I will cling. Copyright © 2015 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
