Single-Minded Saviour Poem by Denis Martindale

Single-Minded Saviour



I asked the Lord what I should write,
Then Heavenward I rose
And suddenly I felt delight,
Like when joy overflows...
While Heaven's such a wondrous place,
Its grace was hard to see,
My eyes were on the Saviour's face,
The King who died for me...

He led me by the hand and said,
'Behold the mansions here! '
And so I looked and straight ahead,
I saw them all appear...
For miles and miles and miles and miles
They melted into view,
My Saviour's face was full of smiles,
'There's one prepared for you...'

And then I sighed, no-one would share
My mansion in the sky,
No wife had I, no-one to care
And soon, I, too, would die...
'I know your heart...' the Lord began,
'Your life not as you hoped,
Yet you still served the Father's plan
And that was how you coped...'

'The former things must pass away,
The flesh and bones must cease,
You didn't have a Wedding Day,
Yet God will grant you peace...
No need to fret, no need to pine,
For here, love's everywhere,
So no man needs a Valentine,
God's love's beyond compare...'

'So take that with you when you leave,
Write down and pass it on,
To lonely hearts who learnt to grieve,
Until all hope was gone...
All isn't lost when love's dream dies,
You see, that's just a dream,
In Heaven, joys await the wise,
Eternal and supreme...'
