Tom Zart Poems

Thank God I prayed to Jesus Almighty
When I was all most persuaded to stray.
Instead I asked for His compassion and wisdom
And here's what He told me to say.
...

Love and electricity are a lot alike
For we never seem to miss them till their gone.
We need both, every day of our life
And even more between twilight and dawn.
...

The best way to understand the value of patience
Is to witness its outcome on our life.
David was just a boy when he learned to wait
As should every man, woman, child, husband and wife.
...

I was almost convinced by the Devil
To allow my heart to run astray.
But instead I prayed to Jesus
And here's what He had to say.
...

When the thoughts we feel are wicked, hateful and cruel
Rather than to hide them we should ask God why?
He will give us His answer to all life's questions
Which will enable us to be a better person till we die.
...

Do not squander the passing time
For that's what life is made of
Never put off till tomorrow
Your time with those you love.
...

Life on Earth is a dangerous journey
As we walk down survival's road
Fearing some day that we might suffer.
Lord, we pray you'll lighten our load.
...

Wine was served at the last supper
And guzzled in King Arthur's court.
Wine can make a sad man happy
And a mean woman turn good sport.
...

Sometimes we believe we are seeking the Lord
When in fact all we seek is what He can give.
God is a Person who desires us to know Him
To glorify all we love, serve and forgive.
...

To be called a child of God All Mighty
Shows how great our Father's love is for man.
The Lord has His purpose for all who believe
Their destiny is to prosper by His hand.
