Falcon2001 Posted August 18, 2003 Report Posted August 18, 2003 Those of you that know me that well know that I'm very religious, but I've never really written any real God-poetry or anything, so I decided now is as good a time as any. Draw me closer to your side Teach me how to survive I'm your weapon, close at hand I'll be patient, just be my true guide All my life I've lived You've been there for me My deepest regrets healed Sorrows and sympathies Please be there for me Jesus, be my guide Help me with my troubles Please stay by my side You're my light, my shining star Whether I am near or I am far The light of heaven, shining down on me Please God make me all that I can be The story of my life One of tragedy I will worship you Because you're there for me In my darkest hour You brought me to the light Fill me with your spirit I'll be your sword by night Glory to the father, Lord of all You've always been there, don't let me fall I'll be waiting, here for you Please dear God, see this poor man through

Rhapsody Posted August 23, 2003 Report Posted August 23, 2003 Falcon, I'm not Christian nor am I very religious, but I was struck by your poem.
