as i sit one day
in ponder and thought
of my life here on earth
and what path I have sought
of Jesus and His suffering and scars
and His love,as He gave His life on that cross
of satan with his snares
and the sins,of those who are at loss
as I pondered,I began to pray
to ask Jesus into my heart,my sins to omit
that I may have that eternal life in heaven
and never with satan in his bottless pit
that I may see Jesus
with the scars,left by the nails
and never meet satan
with those who have failed
help me dear Lord
as I turn my life over to yours
help guide and direct me
as I help finish your chores
to testify and witness
to many or a few
that they might choose the right path
in their life to seek You
and in this prayer
I still do ponder
of the day I see heaven
and all its wonder
Amen
