The Seed Of Life Poem by Michael P. Johnson

The truth is here for all to read
How words can make us whole
Life’s dawn is like a mustard seed
God plants within our soul

God’s precious Seed, does not come cheap –Isa.53: 1-12
And yet to us it’s free
From off the tree He’s planted deep –Jn.20: 1-31
Inside of you and me

Now when God’s Seed we have believed
Receives the promised Dew
The miracle, before conceived
Gives birth to life anew

Like water, poured on desert land
Will sicker deep within
The unseen work by Jesus’ hand
Will soon its growth begin

Building a hedge resisting hell
Achieving Heaven’s will
We need to seek Salvation’s Well
Our cup with truth to fill

We need to drink of Christ God’s Son
Receive His Blood today
We need to drink till life is won
That fails to see decay

From Heaven’s Bread we need to feed
Within God’s Vine take root
Allow His Flame consume life’s weed
And bear His name much fruit

Obedience is the precious wine
Within God’s cup to pour
Escorting truth, to life divine
Through Jesus; Heaven’s Door.
