Sweet Fellowship {1} Poem by Michael P. Johnson

To glorify the Lord on high
We came to sing and pray
Such love, such joy in every eye
Sincere in every way

In Christ, your fruits were plain to see
In presence of the Dove
With open arms you welcomed me
With overwhelming love

How could such love as this exist?
Inside a human soul
It showed to me, how much we’ve missed
Ere Jesus makes us whole

The world outside knows nought of this
She’s blind to Jesus’ bride
Each warm embrace, each holy kiss
The burning glow inside

Too precious, was the love I saw
How much could this one take?
My cup with joy could fill no more
Or else my heart could break

What soothing peace I felt in there
Amidst your smiling sea
You had so much, and longed to share
With such a child as me

You’re special! In the eyes of God
I saw it from the start
You too have needs, yet find not odd
To give with all your heart

Since knowing you, I’m not the same
However far I’ll roam
I know one day in Jesus’ name
I’ll make with you my home P.T.O.
