Please Leave Me... Poem by Denis Martindale

Please leave me to be caught above
By God's two hands on high,
That in God's care I find true love,
In wonder, asking, 'Why? '
And then to whisper, 'I love you!
My Lord, my God, my Friend! '
And nevermore to bid adieu,
To be loved without end!

For He is mine and I am His
And evermore shall be,
Contented by our constant bliss,
For all eternity!
Rejoicing in each other's smiles,
Beyond both space and time,
In Heaven, where no sin defiles,
In truth and peace sublime...

Where angels fly, with outspread wings,
Adorned with precious gold,
Before God's Son, the King of Kings,
His glory to behold!
Please leave me to be caught above
By God's two hands on high,
That in God's care I find true love,
In wonder, asking, 'Why? '

This is a poem style that I choose most of the time,
as it fits the hymn, 'God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen'.
That helps when I am reading or singing a poem with
a common metre structure using 8,6,8,6 syllables.

the Christian channel on Sky TV 581, as
it is part of the 'Church Without Walls'...
