'Preacher Mike' Poem by Jean Evans

I had to return a gift today, it was given to me from God above,

You see it was only a gift to borrow, a gift of God's unselfish Love.

A Love in the form of an amazing voice from a man,

Who sang God's gospel and preached His word from the soild rock upon which he did stand.

A voice as smooth as well spun silk,

Flowing steadily, like honey and milk.

A voice that could make your heart happy or bring a tear to your eye,

A voice that told God's truth and opened your mind.

The man who receive this voice has now been received into Heaven's Kingdom,

The friends and loved ones left behind will now just wait to once again hear him.

Though I know Heaven's choir is sounding sweeter than ever before,

I can't wait until we all get to hear him, like we did before.

His voice will remain forever in our hearts and minds,

For his passion for God when he preached and sang was one of a kind.

'I Thank God For The Lighthouse, ' and for this song that he sang,

Because in the moments I heard him sing this, I felt no worry, no pain.

Never to be replaced, no one can compare or ever be like,

The voice that was Bless by God and given to Preacher Mike!



With All My Love,

You will be greatly missed! !

While in Heaven Above

Give my Mommy and Daddy

A big Hug and Kiss! !
