Sonnet: My Successes, I Owe To God Alone Poem by Dr John Celes

My earthly success, I owe much to God;
Without His timely help, I am a naught;
To boast all things I did myself is odd;
I was rescued by God from problems caught.

Life's moments passed off smoothly by His grace;
He made me see His purpose and His will;
With time, He gave divine a gaze and face;
He healed me every time I'd fallen ill.

Miracles filled my life upon the earth;
His love abundant bathed each day of life;
His Word helped me to walk His way since birth;
God freed me from perils and immense strife.

He gave my vocal cords their special tone;
My successes, I owe to God alone.
