Michael P. Johnson Poems

I see that I’m a sinful child
I know I’ve done You wrong
I so regret my running wild
Singing the devil’s song
...

As towns flourish and teem with life
Of all colours and creeds
In one of them lived with his wife
A doctor, with certain needs
...

Can anybody hear me?
Does anybody care?
Will anybody help me see?
If God is truly there
...

A PLACE PREPARED (1)
Long now has gone the meeting tent Ex.40: 2
God's house adored with pride Mk.13: 1
When Jesus died, the curtain rent Ex.26: 33
...

The cunning devil’s fighting well
Flooding the earth with lies
Leading the masses into hell
Clouding gullible eyes
...

Object, reject Jesus inside
Agree, with what fools tell
Why commit suicide
Always to burn in hell
...

We’ve all considered in our time
We’ve questioned why and how?
Did we evolve from common slime?
And where does man go now?
...

The night my God’s about to quit
The dawn You bring will soon be lit
Sunbeams climb the horizon’s crest
Your children rise content from rest
...

It starts with just a coin at stake
Till lust has gained its height
How vast great hoards we’d love to make
When gambling demons bite
...

Carry me through Lord carry me through
Fill me with Your promised Dew
Allow Your Flame burn deep within
Purge this child of every sin
...
