The Power Of God Poem by Steven Taylor

the power of God cannot be bought,
not leased, traded or sold
for all the paper currency
for all of fort knox gold

the power of God cannot be taught
from manuscripts or schools
from ministers, rabbis or priests
or tele-evangelical fools

the power of God cannot be faked
by deceit or slight of hand
by tricksters in revival tents
healing people that was planned

the power of God can only be
revealed inside of you
the power of God is how you act
and what you say and what you do
that helps your neighbor understand
that truth... and trust.... and faith... and prayer
will always see us through....
and everlasting life in peace
await a chosen few
