Jesus Christ, The King Of Love! Poem by Denis Martindale

Two Christian men had passed away,
No longer of this Earth,
Then went to Heaven on that day,
Considering their worth...
One often knelt beside his bed,
The other slept all night,
One had the faith to plan ahead,
The other yearned insight...

One prayed for family and friends,
The other prayed for all,
One had a faith that never ends
And loved each miracle...
The other kept on wondering,
But still he persevered,
He often called Jesus his King,
Whatever doubts appeared...

Both Christians thought that God could heal,
Yet both died in dismay,
Despite the fact God's love is real
And He knows what we pray...
One gave to noble charities,
The other kept his wealth,
One prayed to God and tried to please,
Yet both died of ill health...

One Christian thought he served the Lord,
Surrended all he had,
The other thought himself as flawed
And sometimes way too bad...
Yet when those Christians reached God's Throne,
Both ran to Jesus Christ,
To learn His love had grown and grown,
More than they realised...
