Jason Bartley Poems

Sin had done us in,
We had nowhere to go,
no hope, no way, it seemed alright,
Our backs against the wall,
...

When there's no one else to talk
to and your burdens seem more to bear,
Call on me.
When you're feeling sad or lonely
...

Jesus was just a carpenter's boy,
Yet His wisdom and knowledge exceeded His years.
He would shake the world with His ministry.
Is this not Joseph and Mary's boy?
...

In God's army,
soldier of truth,
aiming for the sky.
exposing the enemy
...

A Master painter set off one day,
He wanted to paint and so he did.
His student sat and snickered at the mess.
The canvas he saw was a glob of paint.
...

I conceived you into my arms,
You bring me such joy,
I would not trade you
for another girl or another boy.
...

Did you not recieve an invitation, two or three had been sent?
Your presence would have been very welcomed here.
Your labouring hands a God-sent.
What keeps you from this precious kingdom?
...
