God Is Not Dead: He Is Surely Alive

This poem is about how our world often views God in a negative sense and how he tries to break through the barrier we have set up against him only to tell us that he loves us and wants us as his own.

  In our very own culture

    God is torn up by vultures

 Vultures who despise him

  And choose to deny him

They are sick of his strict rules

  And really believe he is a fool

 His rules might seem to be strict

But they form us to be like bricks

  These rules are made to protect

 And hopefully leave a lasting effect

   A lasting effect on a misguided generation

  That would only choose to come to know him

                                                

 He will always be there for all of us

 And will never leave us in the dust

 His precious love will be forever infinite 

  And contains many healthy benefits 

  

  God desperately wants to be our father

  And adopt us as his sons and daughters 

   We can do nothing to lose this love

    That is as pure white as a dove

 Even in a world full of unending hate

Where the devil uses his own bait

 God is always right by our side

 And his name we can not hide

   

                                                

Author's Note

I first came up with the idea to write this poem from listening to the song, God's Not Dead by The Newsboys. I hope you guys enjoy it and comments and input are welcome. :)
