It Is Done!

I wrote my previous poem "Home at Last" in the late 1980's. I didn't write any more poems until this year.

I was born again on November 25th, 1997. In 2010 I wrote my first poem as a Christian "It Is Done!"

Because of our Lord Jesus, my past is forgiven and my future is secure! Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!

This poem is on the "Grace" page as well.

It Is Done!

I’ll consult this powerful mind of mine
and come up with a master plan.
I’ll wash away all my sins
and I’ll be a brand new man!

Oh! . . . I know! . . . I’ll serve . . .
I’ll get in really tight with Him!
When He sees all the work I’ve done
then He will HAVE TO let me in!

So, I worked and worked, and worked and worked,
and then I worked some more.
My mind was getting tired
and my body sure was sore!

Well, I knew this wasn’t working
because I just couldn’t tell.
Can I ever do enough for Him
to save my soul from Hell?

Then I heard about Jesus
and how he died for me. . .
He took my sins to Calvary
and then He died upon a tree.

In my heart I believed
God raised him from the dead
I confessed “JESUS IS LORD”!
Then I knew He died in my stead.

So you can choose to work and work
and work and work some more,
but don’t be deceived for a moment
that will get you through salvation’s door!

Or you can believe God’s salvation plan
through His only Begotten Son
and rest in the blessed assurance
that salvation’s work is DONE!
