The words of Christ’s own poet, pure and bright,
Outshine the ruby’s fire with sacred gleam,
Each verse a sapphire, deep with holy light,
A stream of grace that flows from mercy’s theme.
Like emeralds green with life, they bloom anew,
Reflecting Eden’s hope in every line,
Their amethystine hue, a royal view,
Reveals the Savior’s heart in tones divine.

No diamond cuts so keen as truth they bear,
Nor topaz glows with such eternal flame,
These jeweled praises, wrought in fervent prayer,
Adorn the King’s own throne with Christ’s great name.
So fall these gems from lips redeemed and free,
A treasury of love for all to see.

The throne of loving glory, beauty, delight,
Beholds His royally redeemed in radiant bloom,
His heart, a well of joy that knows no night,
Sees them as heirs of splendor, free from gloom.
His scepter marks them precious in His sight,
His crown of light their royal state reveals,
He views them robed in honor, pure and bright,
Their worship sweet, a treasure He inseals.

No flaw obscures the beauty He surveys,
For in His gaze they shine with regal worth,
A tapestry of grace through endless days,
Their royal praises echo His true mirth.
Ye chosen, rise, His courts of bliss adorn,
His heart’s delight in thee forever born.

A heart attuned, by Christ’s own hand made soft,
A gift divine, to feel where shadows fall,
He tunes the soul to hear the whispers oft,
The sighs of earth, the Spirit’s gentle call.
Through tears and joy, the process carves its way,
Each wound a quill, each grace a line to sing,
A tender heart learns mercy day by day,
And crafts its verse to glorify the King.
Where others pass, unmoved by silent cries,
This poet sees, with eyes by Jesus lent,
The beauty veiled, the pain that underlies,
And weaves it all to hymns of sweet assent.
So from His touch, a fragile strength is born,
A voice to reign in triumph evermore.

The Lions’ Den and Divine Embrace
When shadows roar and lions bare their teeth,
A den of death where mortal strength must fail,
The soul might quake beneath the claws beneath,
Yet faith stands firm where worldly hopes grow pale.
Like Daniel, cast to fate’s unyielding maw,
Surrounded by the hunger of the night,
He found a shield in heaven’s holy law,
A guardian flame that turned the dark to light.
No matter where the lions’ den may lie,
In trials deep or jaws of dread unbound,
God’s hand is near, His mercy hovering nigh,
A whispered peace amid the savage sound.
So trust the One who calms the beastly throng,
For in His care, the weak become the strong.

The Cry for Justice
When deeds so vile do stain the soul’s bright thread,
And darkness coils where mercy once held sway,
The heart, in anguish, lifts its voice to dread,
To call down wrath where evil dares to play.
Oh, righteous fire, from heavens high descend,
Let justice pierce the veil of wicked guile,
With thunder’s roar, let broken fates amend,
And purge the stain that festers rank and vile.
Yet in the storm, a whisper softly cries,
A trembling hope that grace might still abide,
For vengeance dwells where mortal judgment lies,
And peace alone can heal the soul inside.
So pray I thus, with fury and with care,
That truth prevail, and love outlast despair.

Sonnet: The Measure of True Gain

Success is not in gold or fleeting fame,
But in the heart that heeds the Lord’s command,
A life aligned with His eternal name,
Where faith takes root in soil of promised land.

The world may chase its crowns of hollow cheer,
Yet wisdom whispers through the sacred page,
To seek His will, to hold His presence near,
Outshines the wealth that withers with the age.

For what is gain if soul and truth divide?
The prosperous path is trust through storm and strife,
A quiet strength where humble steps abide.

So let the heart in stillness seek its life,
True victory blooms where God’s own word is sown,
And heaven’s peace becomes the treasure known.

He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.

Colossians 1:17 (KJV)

He stands before the dawn of time’s first gleam,
In Him the threads of all creation bind,
Through endless ages, He remains supreme.

The stars, the dust, the heavens’ vast extreme,
All rest within His will, by love designed,
He stands before the dawn of time’s first gleam.

No force can break the unity extreme,
The chaos stilled, the fractured redefined,
Through endless ages, He remains supreme.

Each breath, each pulse, flows from His living stream,
The world upheld where mercy’s hands entwined,
He stands before the dawn of time’s first gleam.

The void would reign, a dark and shattered dream,
Were not His power the cornerstone behind,
Through endless ages, He remains supreme.

So sing of Him, let every voice redeem,
The truth that holds when all else falls resigned:
He stands before the dawn of time’s first gleam,
Through endless ages, He remains supreme.

The emerald trees in silent grandeur stand,
Their jeweled leaves a canopy of light,
A whispered song of nature’s gentle hand,
That weaves through day and cradles soft the night.
Each bough a brushstroke, verdant, bold, and free,
In sunlight’s glow, they shimmer like the sea,
A tide of green where shadows dance and play,
A living art no mortal could decree.
Their roots entwine the earth in deep embrace,
A timeless bond through seasons’ ceaseless flight,
They hold the wind, the rain, the sky’s wide grace,
And gift the world a canopy of might.
Oh, emerald trees, your beauty reigns so grand,
All praise to God, who shaped you by His hand.

Upon the loom of life, a thread of gold,
Truth gleams unyielding, pure, a steady light,
Its edges sharp, its clarity so bold,
It cuts through shadows, banishing the night.

Yet silver winds beside, a gentler hue,
Grace bends where rigid truth might break apart,
A silken cord, forgiving, soft, and true,
It binds the wounds and soothes the aching heart.

Then crimson flows, a river deep and wide,
Mercy’s rich stain, where love and justice meet,
A thread of sacrifice, where wrath subsides,
Its tapestry of pardon made complete.

These strands entwine, a fragile, sacred art,
Three hues as one, to mend the human heart.

If we could see each other through God’s eyes,
Where every soul’s a spark of light divine,
No flaw too deep, no failing to despise,
But love that threads through every fault’s design.

The beggar’s rags would glow with hidden grace,
The proudest heart reveal its tender ache,
Each face a mirror of the sacred place,
Where mercy flows for every soul’s own sake.

What wars would cease, what bitterness would fade,
If pride gave way to vision so profound?
No mask could hold, no sin could cast a shade,
When all our worth in holy sight is found.

So let us strive to see as God might see,
A world reborn in boundless charity.
