David Saw The Truth Poem by Michael P. Johnson

King David saw the truth so clear
Humbly on bended knees
With heart filled up with Godly fear
He sought his Lord to please

Yet still we strut, sing songs so loud
With selfish hearts deceived
Flaunting our talents to the crowd
With just rewards received

Thinking God’s presence will appear
We stand on Holy Ground
Praying long prayers for all to hear
Though Jesus scorns their sound

Ourselves, to God we need to bring!
Our holy hands to raise
In reverence will each heart then sing
And God will hear our praise

With humble heart and selfless mind
In spirit set aside
When eyes to all but Christ are blind
Our God will needs provide

Wisdom and knowledge needs to call
Humility needs to reign
Then foolish pride will come to fall
And life will be our gain

For souls on eagles wing to fly
For victory sweet as wine
To God we need to live and die
In Christ we need to shine

To God alone our praise should be
To God our soul should cry
For there will come our victory
Through Jesus Christ on high
