Christ, Our King Of Love! Poem by Denis Martindale

When Jesus preached to great and small, He healed a multitude.
He prayed for each new miracle upon each one He viewed.
And while His fame increased much more, not every tale got told.
Disciples could not keep the score as Christ healed young and old.
The Bible shares more than enough. God proved Christ was His Son!
God showed Christ was the King of Love to save us one by one!

Beyond the sermons that Christ gave, think what the Lord bestowed.
God proved that only Christ could save as mercies overflowed.
His untold stories go beyond the parables He taught,
Of how, to some, He would respond. And what His Father thought.
Yet this we know! And hold most dear! Christ is alive today!
And let me make this crystal clear! Christ hears the prayers we pray!
