What Do We Take

What Do We Take

What do we take when we go
And leave this nursery here below,
Do we take a bank account
To what would that amount?

We take happiness and love,
For that is all there is above
There will be no pain or hate
When we're through Heavens gate.

There'll be not one single tear,
Nor any danger or evil to fear,
And envy's lies will not be near,
Nor sorrows cries will we hear.

All our hopes and dreams stay
With the things we give away,
For once we leave this place
We'll gaze upon His holy face.

................................
Trapped in darkness so to release us
He sent down His holy Son Jesus,
Who was born in Bethlehem's manger,
Where angels kept Him from all danger.

Satan could ne'er make Him bow down,
So Jesus ended with a thorny crown,
Safe in victory and glory most high,
Until that day when again He's neigh.

But for now I sail into a wonderful storm
Where His love ever keeps me warm,
For he guides my heart and soul too
And if you ask He will do it for you.

I am a child to Him in innocent sin,
And if you love Him you too will win,
For He knows if your heart is pure,
Then your salvation in Him is sure.

wow, I really love your style and flow of words. To me you have a true inspiration. Do you do this for a hobby or do you write also poetry books? Thank you for sharing. Blessings

Thanks.It's nice to be appreciated.One of the critiques at United world Poets said I should publish,singling out 'Romance Whispers To Her Heart'.Then last fall,a letter from World Poetry Movement informed me they were publishing that very poem.Since they had my civic address,I assume 'someone' a UWP submitted on my behalf.It was published in January in Stars Of Our Hearts.Thanks again

Hi Maxeen,
Thanks very much.You are very correct there.All the prosperous and good nations are/were Christian nations and as we are backing away from Christ slowly,so is the prosperity of these same nations as they are being diluted with non-Christians.It's not a coincidence.
God bless.
