Poems

O Lord, Come Quickly!

How long, O Lord, will sin crouch
At the door?
How long until sorrow and
Pain are no more?

O Lord, come quickly!
O Lord, come fast!
Bring us safely home to Jesus at last.

How long will anger rule our thoughts?
We cry, “We know what’s best!”
How long until we embrace
True peace and rest?

O Lord, come quickly!
O Lord, come fast!
Incline our hearts to Jesus at last.

Praise the Lord with me,
This age will soon pass.
Praise the Lord with me,
Let’s not curse, but bless.

    Beautiful poem sis! Thank you for sharing. I like this part, “How long will anger rule our thoughts? We cry, “We know what’s best!” How long until we embrace True peace and rest?” I am always working on giving it up to God. When I do, I find peace and rest, and He usually gives me something better than what I was clinging to in the first place 🙂 Someday I will learn!
