Poems by John Alexander Let It Be I pray for guidance through the year, Discern the truth, to You draw near. I pray I yield, give You control, Not swayed by some opinion poll. Lord guard my soul and guide my hand. May truth take root throughout our land. Lord, keep my feet on solid ground. Your Word is true, Your truth profound. I pray I’m daily in Your Word, My rhymes reflecting what I’ve heard.
Walk With The Lord
I pray I’m able to impart The love You’ve placed within my heart.
By John Alexander
To walk in simple faith, to be His hands and feet, sounds so easy, yet I often try to make it complicated. It’s so easy to stray off the path and chose my own way. At first, the path seems right, but before long the path becomes obscured and I’m wandering around in the weeds. Whenever I stay in the Word and pray daily, I find it easier to walk with the Lord. I discovered that writing a poem during my morning quiet time helps me maintain the habit of daily time (early morning works best for me) reading the Bible and a short devotional, lifting my prayers to the Lord, and sharing my heart through poetry. It’s a blessing to share a few poems each month with the Faith On Every Corner family. I pray they are a blessing to you.
I pray I bring Your love and care To others by the words I share. I lift You up, Lord let it be That others understand and see The love that only You can bring. You set us free that we may sing.
