Changed Lives Poem by Loyd C Taylor Sr

Changed Lives



"Tongues"
That used to say ugly things no one needed to hear,
Now speaking words of beauty praising the Savior dear!

"Hearts"
That used to beat to enjoy the wickedness of sin,
Now broken for the lost praying that they make it in.

"Lives"
Once were torn asunder from their selfishness and shame,
Now are healed through God's love and the power of His name.

O what grace immeasurable, O what love divine.
O what hope immovable, and O what peace sublime!

Reaching down to the lowest of earth's sinful creatures,
Redeeming freely from their undesirable plight.
Reaching out to them through His Word and Holy Spirit,
Redirecting from sin's darkness to the holy Light!

A very moving write Loyd. Isn't it wonderful that Christ is willing to reach out to us, even when we are at our worst. And, what a difference there is in the before and after. Thank you, my friend for sharing this excellent poem. Richard
