New Original Poem by Dan Popovich: "An Evening Prayer (no. 1)"
An Evening Prayer (no. 1)
There is nothing that need be said or done
The Lord has heard and seen
All that we have said and did
This day just as we’ve been
Living, trusting, measuring out
The efforts that are required
From each of us to live a healthy
Life that is inspired.
Our vices having battled
We rest our weary souls
Hoping that the day will finish
With stories to be told
Of virtues, faith hope charity
Won out again and ag’in
So that the dreaded Enemy
Won’t triumph thru our sins
You see it really is
Quite possible to lose
Our place in Heaven’s Kingdom
If ever we should choose
To turn away from Mercy
Won by Him on the Cross
How could I even think
Of breaking Faith with He
That chases down the renegades
Through all eternity
There’s nowhere you can hide it’s true
His Love for all abounds
He simply won’t be satisfied
‘Til ALL His sheep are found.
May God bless you with life in abundance
Amen
