My Dear Lord Poem by Randy McClave

Dear Lord;
Thank You! for carrying the cross,
Unto me, your love was poured
For you I now know, I am not a loss.
In my life many loads I did ferry,
But, your cross I could never carry.

Dear Lord;
By your wounds, I am healed,
Because of you I never need hate or a sword
You are my protector, and my shield.
I'm redeemed alone by your sacrifice,
To be with you, you paid the price.

Dear Lord;
By your love, I am forgiven,
You are the ultimate reward
Because of you, I am now spiritually driven.
To paradise my road has been paved,
By your grace alone, I am saved.

Dear Lord;
By your guidance I was lost, but now I'm found,
You are my salvation and my reward
I am now someday Heaven bound.
I now know it's not the broad or the length,
It's in your mercy, where I find strength.

Dear Lord;
In your light alone, I find true clarity,
By you, I have never been forgotten or ignored
You have given me true prosperity.
To you I will always follow and will pray,
In your word alone, I find the way.

Dear Lord;
I truly love you my Jesus,
My soul and life you have restored
You truly love each and every one of us.
All the glory be to you my Savior, my King
My eternal love is yours, as my heart does constantly sing.
