A Poem To Jesus

My eyes have been wrapped with so many mistakes

My hands were covered with blood

My heart was all weak and dark

My legs couldn’t carry me no more

 

I have been spoken against

I have been forsaken by my friends

I have been betrayed by my family

The ones I loved all deserted me

And left me breaking to pieces

By your hand am now in one piece

 

Thank you Lord Jesus Christ

Because of you I can now see

I feel all strong and brand new

You carried me when I was weak

You confronted me when I was lonely

Because of your hand, I rose up

 

I will shout and glorify your name

I will let the world know your name

You are my best friend and family

You are the strength that shutters my weakness

Jesus you are my everything

I forever walk by your glory and mighty name

I always find it really hard to write religious poetry. I've tried and tried and tried but something always keeps me from being able to do it. That being said, this is a pretty cool poem. It reminds me of a Psalm. In the first 2 lines of the last stanza you repeat the word "name" and it kind of jars a little. I understand why you wanted to put it there but maybe there is something you could replace one of the names with? Just a suggestion.

I don't think I have the heart to really dig into such a personal poem. Keep up the good work!
