Richard Merrell Poems

Rain is falling gently
Thank God for it I must,
He causes it to rain upon
The wicked and the just.
...

I have committed a great sin
Against the Lord my God,
And against those that say, 'they love me'
But I have repented, God has forgiven
...

There are two cords in Scripture
The first one speaks of death,
A silver cord which breaks
When a man draws his last breath.
...

One Corinthians fourteen
Speaks the commandments of the Lord
About the use of speaking in tongues
And not going overboard.
...

'If you love me keep my word'
Yeshua the Lord did say
For an answer to your problems
This is the ONLY way!
...

My body to the grave will go
Down in a wooden box
Laid to rest in comfort
Wearing shoes and socks.
...

Aquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome
Is what they say AIDS does stand for;
Doubtless though I perceive that AIDS
Stands for immeasurably more.
...

Be anxious for nothing
But in everything do pray
With supplication and thanksgiving
Make your requests to God each day.
...

God's purpose for the womb
Is to produce a new life
That man and woman might multiply
The husband and his wife.
...

He that has pity on the poor
Lends unto the Lord;
Who will repay to him again
It says so in God's Word.
...
