 Sir Ricky's Inspirational Poetry Corner

poetryofadove

Being the elect of God,

Holy and dearly loved;

We should honor and laud,

Being our beloved.

 

Clothe with a heart of grace,

With mercy and kindness;

Give comfort to embrace,

For your faith is blindness.

 

Be gentle and patient,

Forgiving each other;

Who believes is a saint,

Trusting one another.

 

Just as the Lord forgives,

You should forgive others;

For anyone who lives,

Treat them as your brothers.

 

To these virtues, add love,

Which is the perfect bond;

As it flows from above,

From the heavenly pond.

 

Let the peace of the Lord,

Have control of your heart;

To be in one accord,

Letting His words impart.

 

Let the word of Christ dwell,

Richly with His wisdom;

Blocking any access to hell,

Only unto His Kingdom.

 

Sing praise of hymns and psalms,

Worshipping through your tongue;

Praise Him by saying poems,

Every breath that is flung.

 

Hymns and spiritual songs,

All with grace in your heart;

Confession of your wrongs,

Asking that they depart.

 

To do in word or deed,

Do it all in His name;

God will help you succeed,

When willing to proclaim.

 

Give thanks to the Father,

For giving us His Son;

Making Christ a Brother,

As the Anointed One.
