 Sir Ricky's Inspirational Poetry Corner

Praise God and Father of the Lord,

Father of mercies and comfort;

To whom we have loved and adored,

Able to shield us to divert.

 

He comforts us when affliction,

Overcomes us to much to bear;

Able to help through addiction,

When we admit the fault in prayer.

 

The ones who are in any kind,

Of affliction that we receive;

A comfort for easing the mind,

If your faith truly does believe.

 

For as the sufferings of Christ,

Overflow into each of us;

The reason He was sacrificed,

For the comforting thought as thus.

 

It will be for your salvation,

For your comfort when afflicted;

Building us a firm foundation,

Strengthening us when convicted.

 

We experience an endurance,

Of the same woes that we suffer;

Building us up in confidence,

Because Christ is there to buffer.

 

Our hope for you remains firm,

Because we know that as you share;

In sufferings for the short term,

When going to the Lord in prayer.

 

We want not you be unaware,

Of affliction has taken place;

We were overwhelmed that you share,

So, our despair Christ will embrace.

 

But we had been sentenced to death,

That we would not put our trust;

But God who is giving new breath,

While forming us from the dust.

 

We have put our hope in Him,

On behalf for the gift received;

Giving us a spiritual vim,

Having the faith that has believed.
