Christian Poetry
This is one of my Christian poems, which I wrote as an alphabet poem, with the challenge to use every letter of the alphabet in order as a key word in the way God asks us to behave.
A is for ALWAYS be honest and true
So people can B : BELIEVE in you.
C is for COURAGE to stand firm and fight,
D for DETERMINED to DO what is right.
E for EQUALITY: always aim
To treat the world EQUALLY; always the same,
Having the FAITH to seek God’s FACE
And live your life by GOD’S GOOD GRACE.
Try to be HAPPY, whatever your lot
And don’t be reliant on HAVE or HAVE NOT.
The next letter’s selfish, of course, it is ‘I’;
It’s hard to be selfless, but constantly try.
J is for JUST; Be firm, but be fair
(and throw in forgiveness to show that you care.)
K is for KNOWING your maker above,
LISTENING and LEARNING to show God’s LOVE.
M is for MAKING a difference on earth,
N is for NEVER forgetting your worth.
O is for OPENNESS, honouring God;
Being prepared to stand OUT and look ODD.
P’s for PROTECTION of those who’re in need.
Q’s for the QUEST to stamp out the world’s greed.
R’s for REMEMB’RING how God SHOWED his love
By SENDING our SAVIOUR (His SON) from above.
TRY to be THANKFUL to God, and achieve
A real UNDERSTANDING of what you believe.
VERIFY all that you’re taught, with God’s WORD,
Not blindly accepting whatever you’ve heard.
Think of the cross, as where X marks the spot
(For YOU are God’s treasure: Believe it or not!)
Z’s the last letter, but God has no end
So ZEALOUSLY make Him your Saviour and friend.
