Adopt Me, Heavenly Father! Poem by Denis Martindale

Christ stopped me... because He'd rather... I didn't stay the same...
Adopt me, Heavenly Father... I ask in Jesus Name...
Receive me like a prodigal... who seeks a happy home,
Who then receives a miracle... with no more need to roam...

Baptise me, with Your cleansing, Lord... Is that too hard a task?
Advise me, so I'm not ignored... Is that too much to ask?
Please grant me pardon that's unique... as You reach out and touch...
Amazing grace, that's what I seek... as if loved very much...

Christ stopped me... because He'd rather... be all that I could be...
Adopt me, Heavenly Father... because of Calvary...
Once born again, I know for sure... eternal life is mine...
Yet from Your heart, You share much more.... eternal love divine...

To hold my hand and hold me close... surrounded by Your wings...
To be someone Lord Jesus chose... for He's the King of Kings...
Embracing You each brand new day... like others choose to do...
In Jesus Name, I want to say...You are my Abba, too...
