Each Time I Think Of Him Poem by Denis Martindale

When I recall my youthful days,
The schools of years gone by,
I simply pause for prayers and praise,
Then wistfully I sigh...
When I recall the Autumns gone
When precious light grew dim,
I still give thanks Christ's light has shone
Each time I think of Him...

When I recall the girls and boys
And close-knit band of friends,
I knew my heart had made that choice
For every one God sends...
When I recall the blessings shared
Were not through idle whim,
Christ's greater friendship comes prepared
Each time I think of Him...

When I recall my family,
The most part Heaven-bound,
That's all because of Calvary,
Forgiveness that we found...
When I recall my time draws near,
I choose not to be grim,
For I believe my Saviour's here
Each time I think of Him...

And Heaven waits the humbled soul,
When all life's trials are done,
Relinquishing to God's control,
All triumphs that were won...
And Heaven's where this spirit goes,
To join Christ's seraphim,
Because my joy just overflows
Each time I think of Him...
