Can This Word Say (Hebrew 4:16)

Posted on June 7, 2011 by Admin

Can this Word say
How great Thou has been and how great Thou are
And Your greatness I proclaim.
Can this Word declare
You are the “I am, I am”
And You are all I am and all I ever need.
Can this Word know
How much You actually love me and shown me such…
Considering all the things I have and have not done.
Can this Word promise
All the mercy and help I can desire in my time of need…
If it can… then let this Word take me to thy throne of grace!

MY PEOPLE

The night is beautiful,
So the faces of my people.

The stars are beautiful,
So the eyes of my people.

Beautiful, also, is the sun.
Beautiful, also, are the souls of my people.

Langston Hughes

MY PEOPLE NOW

The night has many
Sounds and lights
So are the ways of my people now.

The stars can be
Seen near and far
So developed now are the minds of my people.

Beautiful always is the sun
That rises in front of a deep blue sky
Or somewhere above the deep blue oceans of the vivid past.

Beautiful always are the hearts and souls of my people now...
When you reflect on these things
Look at my people now and smile.
