To Live With Christ Poem by Michael P. Johnson

Life's not all easy with Jesus
With Christ who for us died
For living, yet not to please us
But change one's soul inside

Coming to every nation
Calling all, who'll hear
Each seeker, where true salvation
May suddenly appear

Neither with trumpet sounds, blaring
Nor lightning, flashing round
But gentle, whilst true love sharing
That Heaven's grace be found

No easy is not God's calling
But toiling in life's quest
Busy running, walking, crawling
Bestowing souls one's best

Quite good enough is nothing less
But what Salvation brings
To share one's strength richly to bless
God's future priests and kings

But first whom is called should muster
Themselves in rank and file
Not with ornamented lustre
But service with a smile

Knowing one's mind ones' soul one's heart
The secret thought of man
God wills not one should ever part
From life's eternal plan

Liars, murderers, cheats, thieves
Prostitutes, buggerers whores
Regardless whom Satan deceives
Repentance opens life's doors.....
