Bob Gotti Poems

It is The Lord and Him alone, behind how much I have grown,
Just how I've grown spiritually, since meeting God at Calvary,
Saving me, so spiritually lost, while the Lord paid all the cost,
Saving me from my life of sin, to gain a new life all from Him.
...

We have a command in this life; submit to the Lord, Jesus Christ,
For, to be controlled has its price, which for believers is sacrifice,
Being controlled by the Holy Spirit, in heeding Truth, as we hear it,
While we sacrifice our own desire, for a purpose, far much higher,
...

One chilly start to this day, waiting for the sun's first ray,
As God above sends forth, the sun for light and warmth,
The sun is the larger light, to break darkness of the night,
Ordered by the Creator God, for daily light upon this sod.
...

It is said, that a red sky at night, for sailors at sea is a delight,
As the following day will be, pleasant weather with a calm sea,
But a red sky in the morning, becomes for them a big warning,
That it'll be bad weather instead, for that morning sky was red.
...

When I'm dead, I won't die, but, simply lifted by God on high,
Raised up to Heaven above, by my Lord God's hand of love,
As I face an earthly death, I will be breathing Heaven's breath,
In my new body prepared for me, by the Lord God of eternity.
...

We are to glorify God's Name, yet, it is taken so much in vain,
The Name of our Holy God, used today with an irreverent nod,
Through their lives many show, that The Lord, they don't know,
So I ask you with a curious nod, just who exactly is their god?
...

Men sing of a night so silent, when God would begin man's triumph,
Man's triumph over darkness, through Jesus Christ's Righteousness,
When that night a Son was born, just as in Scripture God had sworn,
He came to provide peace with God, to all souls on this earthly sod.
...

It's my Gracious God and me, that is how it's going to be,
As He guides me day to day, walking on life's narrow way,
Not down a path that's broad, that one which sinners laud,
But, that Narrow Way of Life, this, as I follow Jesus Christ.
...

The Christian Body, that's you and me, live in light of orthodoxy,
The right belief of Revelation, which creates a strong foundation,
Unchanging Truths in Scripture, give to us a foundational picture,
Of God's Truth that we live by, unchanging Truths, we can't deny.
...

Believers need to have good soil, this, so the enemy cannot foil,
Those plans, which God has for us, as we follow our Lord Jesus;
The soil, being believer's hearts, as The Word, The Spirit imparts,
Eternal Truths, of The Word of God, as we travel this earthly sod,
...
