End With A Friend Poem by Bob Gotti

End With A Friend

Rating: 5.0


There is a Savior you can know, who truly is our friend indeed.
He is one to whom you can go, when you’re in a time of need.
When your world is ebbing low, His direction you want to heed.
In God’s strength you can grow, when you give Christ the lead.

Give Jesus the lead in your life, He will never steer you wrong.
Give your heart to The Christ; who alone can make you strong.
He will lead you from your strife, then place in you a new song,
From where the darkness is rife, to the place where you belong.

God’s will is the only place to be, as we live our life day to day.
God will help our heart to see, as Jesus guides you in His way,
Steering you away from iniquity, lest your heart begins to stray.
Guiding believers to eternity, despite what other men may say.

Placed on a course by God’s Son, that began for us at Calvary.
Left upon earth with a race to run, in a world full of uncertainty,
However this race is already won, for in Christ we have victory.
When on the cross He said it’s done, securing for men Eternity.

Alienated from God as we begin, a life on earth my dear friend,
But we are saved from all sin, by a love none can comprehend.
We were given a new life within, and with The Lord we will end,
He died so we can be with Him, with all eternity for us to spend.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Hey Bob, one time back in Sunday school, they forced us to participate in this dopey reenactment of Jesus’ crucifixion. We had to put on red foam rubber clown noses and big clumsy clown shoes and then carry a heavy sack of rocks on our back as we walked a phalanx of older kids who shouted insults and fired water pistols at us. I remember coming home with soaked clothes and a sore back. We weren’t supposed to keep the clown noses, but I did. Do think that was wrong? It’s not like they missed one stupid clown nose. I was angry about having to take part in the ridiculous exercise, but I guess I still shouldn’t have stolen the nose. I don’t know. What would Jesus have done?
