I Will Persevere! Poem by Denis Martindale

I Will Persevere!



I have lived in interesting times...
I have lived through wars and earthquakes.
I have endured aches and pains
And I have endured agony... and hated it.

And as for a life of poverty...
I have suffered years of unemployment.
I have survived decades of loneliness.
I have reached old age and lost my youth.
I have seen teeth come, I have seen teeth go.
My eyes are not as strong as they once were.
My body not as fit as it once used to be...
And death is much closer than ever before...

But, if you think that I will give up now,
After all that was endured before...
Then think again... for I will persevere.
For I have known the Lord of Lords,
For I have known the King of Kings...
And while God still grants His pardon
And a foretaste of grace and revelation,
Then it is by faith... in the Name of Jesus...
That I will persevere!
