Who could love me greater than my Jesus?
His love is not tied by Earth or by Sea,
but through his generous grace he sees us.
Bound by sin, I am no longer but free.
Before the creation of Earth or life,
he loved me, he loved me, oh yes indeed!
His measureless love covered all the strife,
although my sins on the cross he did plead.
Man can only love as long as death bids,
but no man can die for love and still live.
The Shepherd will love his sheep and their kids,
but for one lost sheep his life he would give.
I will not worry: his love will run out,
till Everlasting it will stand, no doubt.

ReplyDeleteThis poem is so cute, it should serously be published! Whoaaaa, it really does touch your heart like grace said. Its religous and sweet. "Bound by sin, I am no longer but free.
ReplyDelete" is my favorite line.
Praise God! I loved this sonnet, and it was so true! Nobody can love us like Jesus, John 15 tells us that! Great job writing this, and not many poems make me want to grab my Bible and preach but this one sure does! Wonderful job!!
