Perfect Perfection Poem by Michael P. Johnson

Perfection’s not on earth achieved
Although it be our aim
But first with all who have believed
God’s just reward we’ll claim


With those who’ve lain in peaceful rest
Each saint who’s gone before
As bride complete, endlessly blessed
We’ll rise through Heaven’s door


Though many years my journey’s run
Though failing here and there
I’ve felt the love of God’s great Son
Through every single prayer


I’ve felt His hand I’ve heard His voice
Those mighty arms so strong
Thank God I made life greatest choice
To sing this wondrous song


It’s worth each moment sacrificed
Each effort, every pain
To guarantee I’ll live with Christ
I’d do it all again


I’d bear the cross I had to bear
I’d tread the extra mile
I‘d do it all because I care
To see my Saviour smile


Because I know I’m not alone
I’ll journey to my goal
Because I’ll see on Heaven’s throne
Who saved my precious soul


Perfection may elude me yet
But this I understand
My many trials God won’t forget
Within The Promised Land
