The poem, titled “Jesus Christ, Crescendo of Hope,” is an ode that celebrates the divine hope and grace found exclusively in Jesus Christ, presented as the ultimate “gift of all gifts.” Through a series of adjectives beginning with “g”—gleaming, glittering, gorgeous, grandiose, gallant, gargantuan, godlike, and graceious—the poem builds a crescendo effect, starting with subtle whispers of light in the soul and rising to an exultant proclamation of eternal glory. It concludes by affirming that this boundless hope and radiant love are granted solely through Jesus Christ, our Lord, illuminating the human spirit forever.


Gleaming softly in the soul’s quiet deep,
Glittering boldly where shadows creep,
Gorgeous beams of mercy unwind,
Grandiose visions lift the mind,
Gallant love in triumph reigns,
Gargantuan hope breaks all chains,
Godlike glory crowns the skies—
Graceious light that never dies,
Granted solely through the One,
Jesus Christ, our Lord, the Son,
Gift of all gifts, pure and free,
Glowing for eternity.

The Sword Of Scripture by Debbie Harris

When grace is scorned, the Word of God we take,
No gentle peace, but truth’s own sharpened blade,
A biblical stand against the dark we make,
To pierce the lies where evil’s roots are laid.
This sword, God’s voice, ignites the soul to rise,
When sin’s black veil would choke the light away,
With Scripture’s edge, we meet the serpent’s eyes,
Its holy writ our strength in fierce array.
Yet still we grieve the grace so lightly tossed,
The mercy spurned by hearts too proud to bend,
For though the Word cuts deep what sin has cost,
Love’s balm could heal where judgment seeks to rend.
So armed with God’s own sword, we stand as one,
Yet pray for grace when righteous wrath is done.

Restoring The Spirit Of Acts In Our Time by Debbie Harris

In Acts, the faithful shared with open hands,
A church alive with love, no soul in need,
Their hearts unbound by selfish, earthly bands,
They sowed in grace, a pure and holy seed.

Oh, for a flock where burdens all are borne,
Where widows weep not, nor the hungry pine,
A brotherhood from dusk until the morn,
Each life entwined, like branches on the vine.

No gold they hoarded, none stood lone, apart,
Their table spread for stranger and for kin,
With fervent prayer and undivided heart,
They built a home where mercy dwelt within.

Restore us, Lord, to care as once they did,
A church renewed, where love is never hid.

Gems Of A Redeemed Voice by Debbie Hattis

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.

The Poet’s Holy Call by Debbie Harris

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 by Debbie Harris

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.

Sonnet: The Imprecatory Cry For Justice by Debbie Harris

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.

Biblical Success Beyond The World’s Crown by Debbie Harris

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.

Gold, Silver, Crimson by Debbie Harris

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.
