Designed
before the birth of time
Was
central in the heart of God
Before
man stepped upon earth’s sod.
Then
out of dust a living soul
Was
given birth one Eden morn
And
standing there beside this man
A
bride with beauty took his hand.
But
when a tree with tempting fruit
Became
the test for Adam’s race
The
Serpent’s charm betrayed God’s plan
And
that brought death to every man.
In
time a bloodstained Lamb appeared
Redemption’s
priceless gift was made
The
hell each man would have to pay
Was
nailed to Calvary’s cross that day.
When
faith takes hold His nailed-scared hand
Then
all sin’s past is swept away
Real
freedom through the risen Lamb
Gives
wings of praise at His command

Once again, Papa, that is an amazing, beautiful, and very true poem!!! Thank you for sharing... Keep up the good work. You really have a gift from God to condense a thought or two into a poem with rhyme and coherency. Believe me... 'cause you're talking to a girl that can barely make two lines rhyme and fit together:)
You are so sweet! Thanks for your encouragement! I love you.
