Charles Burgess- A Poem

Hand of Salvation

Take the hand of salvation this man died for me and you.

Take his hand let his light guide you day in and day out.

I am here to tell you what the lord is all about.

So sit back listen close to what I have to say

Jesus will come back for our souls one day

Take the hand of salvation not the hand of man

Pray to him every day just talk to him

Let him know how you feel if you are sick take his hand

You will get healed days are dark no matter! god is there.

Take the hand of salvation on this dark, dark road

Gold knows what twists and turns your life holds

Put your faith in god walk hand in hand with him

He will show you the way.  Jesus is here to stay!

People turn their backs on him at the drop of a hat.

The world would be worse than it is if not for the salvation

People say god doesn’t exist?

Sit back and let me ask you this

If Jesus is not real look at your kids

Look in their eyes tell me they are not angels

If god was not real how can something so beautiful be standing there

You claim he don’t exist what about the people who have beat cancer?

God gave the world doctors the knowledge to save lives

I don’t know why there is so much hate in this world

I know god is here I know god is real and takes away fear open your heart if you want to hear

The words of god listen closely I can tell you how

You must know deep within your heart that Jesus and your soul will never be apart

He will show you the light he will be your guardian when the devil tries to fight

People listen to what I say your very soul is at stake

Pray to god when you are sad he understands all the bad you have

No one has a love like Jesus he gave his life so that we have a reason

We sometimes forget what god really means

People are so worried about money and greed

But people have forgot prayer is in need

No one understands how bad this world will be

So listen up world I am going to tell you how much Jesus means to me

I ask myself every day as tears from my face Lord help me tell me my place

People laugh they point and stare but I don’t care who it makes mad I praise the lord

Day after day I sit alone and just pray, I pray for all things I pray to have

This world rid of the monsters who rape and kill not for me to judge only god will

People act as if their soul doesn’t matter

Tomorrow is not promised you see, live ever day as if it is your last.

He was whipped and beaten until his back was bloody he wore a crown of thorns.

If that is not love I don’t know is, the lord Died for our sins.

Do you believe in god I want to know? Do you let your heart be bitter or do you just let things go

God is the greatest gift in this world today when so many have lost their way

I write today about the hand of salvation pray to god so your soul don’t face eternal damnation

Repent today give your heart to Jesus things will fall into place.

I write because god puts the words in my heart His voice is well heard

Children of the world go without food, no shelter, yet they keep a smile on their face

God is with them he will never fade away

Thank you god I ask for a lot I want the world to see

Not just with your eyes but look into your soul

Time passes by the world grows darker and darker

Take the hand of salvation hold your Bible high

Let the world know you stand for your god let it show

Ever one wants to talk about white pride, black pride, no one mentions Jesus pride

So stand up world don’t sit back and hide.

Let’s show the world we love Jesus Christ!
