My Testimony Poetry
"How’d You Get So Rich"
If you want to ask me
"How ’d you get so rich?"
I’ll tell you the story,
the following of which ….
I once was a lost sinner
and condemned to hell
But Jesus saved my soul
and now I’ve a story to tell
I’m saved, I’m saved,
Jesus ransomed my soul
He gave me eternal riches
and life so abundant and full
Jesus ransomed my soul
with His own shed blood
forgave me of my sin
and pulled me out of the mire and mud
He gave to me an inheritance
that can never be taken away
I’ll live with him eternally
and walk on streets of gold someday
I Peter 1:4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you.
Forgiven By Jesus
The reason I love Jesus
is because he has forgiven me so much
My sins, which were many,
he washed away with his miraculous touch
He told me to "go in peace,"
and by faith I was made whole
When I trusted him with my heart,
he saved my soul
Because of his forgiveness,
I can talk to him and love him so,
have fellowship with his sufferings
and his wisdom know
It's all because Jesus forgave my sins,
not in part, but all
and throughout my pilgrim journey
I am listening for his call
Luke 7:47 Wherefore I say unto thee, her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.
Luke 7:50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee, go in peace.
Something Wonderful
Something wonderful happened to me thirty years ago
It was the day I asked Jesus to have mercy on me
I knew I was an undone sinner, but Jesus loved me so
He forgave me, gave me a new heart, and made my blind eyes see
Something wonderful happened and I shall never forget
what my savior did for me on that day I did repent
It was a great day when Jesus pulled me out of the pit
He answered my prayer for mercy and did not relent
Oh, the wonderful healing that happened on that glorious day
to have my heart disease of sin and spiritual blindness gone
when Jesus saved my soul and came into my heart to stay
now being kept by his mercy forever and to Him always belong
How Jesus could ever love a sinner like me I'll never understand
but one thing I do know for sure is that it's true
His wondrous love and mercy is more than marvelous and grand
He took all my sin upon himself and paid my penalty that was due
If you have never had something wonderful happen to you
then just come to Jesus as a sinner in need of forgiveness
He will do the same for you, wash your sins away, and make your heart new
He loves you so that he died on the cross, all you need to do is just confess
Psalm 139:6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.
Mark 1:15 .... repent ye and believe the gospel.
Luke 18:13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
Everything Was Changed
I once was dead in trespasses and sins
but now am alive in Christ
I once walked in the ways of the world
but now my citizenship is in heaven
Everything was changed when Jesus saved my soul
All things became new and life so rich and full
I once was lost without hope or direction
but now I know where I’m going
I once was far from God and couldn’t reach him
but now am made nigh by the blood of Christ
Everything was changed when Jesus saved my soul
All things became new and life so rich and full
I once was a child of the devil
but now I am a child of God
I once was headed for eternal damnation
but now am on my way to eternity in Paradise
Everything was changed when Jesus saved my soul
All things became new and life so rich and full
II Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
Name of Jesus Engrafted
The name of Jesus is engrafted upon my heart where only God can see
written with the ink of the blood of the Lamb shed for me
It is permanent and can never be removed
When God sees the blood on my heart I am approved
This engraving will always be there to stay
So thankful am I it can never fade away
The blood stained mark on my heart
is applied there with the finest art
With this engraftment I can never be lost
by faith in His name it is there without cost,
never to regret having this engraving in place
to belong to Jesus eternally by his mercy and grace
Exodus 12:13 … and when I see the blood, I will pass over you …
He Lifted Me
The love of Jesus lifted me
When in darkness I could not see
I was sinking deep in the muck and mire
And with my sin I was so tired
I was bowed down by the weight of my sin
With no hope and only darkness within
I could in no way lift up myself
But Jesus saw my sad state and revealed himself
I asked Jesus to be merciful to me a sinner
With his cleansing blood he made me a winner
I gained the prize of being forgiven
My sin burden lifted and my name written in heaven
My Savior promised to never forsake me or leave
My heart's desire is to him to always cleave
When I'm in trouble and see no way out
He hears my cry and cares for me without a doubt
Psalms 40:2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
Savior On The Cross Jesus carried his heavy cross to Calvary It was all because of his great love for you and me Cruel men did mock him and ...
