Tom Zart Poems

Humans have always had their need for love
Long before they could calculate the year.
Painting on the walls of caves and tombs
Stories of accomplishment, conquest and fear.
...

Once in command, he boxed in the British
At Boston where he captured Dorchester Heights
Overlooking the Brits at his mercy r
As his men took aim with their cannon sites.
...

There once was a traveler who was driven out of town
On His shoulders was a burden that pushed Him to the ground.
On His head was a crown made of thorns from a bush
And the street was so crowded the guards had to push.
...

Our men and women give the ultimate sacrifice
When they pledge to defend our flag.
In hot spots throughout our world
They defeat our enemies who brag.
...

It's not how we start it's how we finish
That lets others know how much we care.
We make our mistakes and pray to God
For all His blessings beyond compare.
...

Our love, principles, priorities and deeds illustrate
Just who and what we honestly are.
Do we strive to serve our Lord, brothers and sisters
Or do we take self-indulgence too far?
...

The Holy Spirit forgives, warns and convicts
When our activities shame and disgrace our behavior.
The love of Christ and the wickedness of man
Can never live in peace with our Savior.
...

Christians yearn to walk the pathway of life
With total confidence in the love of the Lord.
All seek more than we merit by our actions
Or ever on our own could achieve or afford.
...

The Son of God came to Earth on Christmas
To live and die as our blessing and Savior.
So we could be reconciled to God in heaven
Despite our sins, misjudgments and behavior.
...

Faith is about what we see, feel and experience
About forgiveness, worship, trust and love.
As we proclaim Christ as our Lord and Savior
He juries our deeds from heaven above.
