    This is a poem that I will perform next week for a Chistian Youth Convention that I will attend. The poem is inspired by 2 Corinthians 5:17.

    WARNING: THIS IS A RELIGOUS POEM. IF YOU WISH TO BASH MY VIEWS ON LIFE, THEN PLEASE PM ME ABOUT IT. I POSTED IT HERE BECAUSE AT THE END OF THE DAY, IT IS A POEM.

    I Am A Child of Yours


    Lying silently in my peaceful bed,
    I pray to receive your compassion.
    I long to be in your presence,
    to be with you in your shining kingdom
    of love, hope, and peace.
    Darkness would shroud my dying face
    from your loving light of gold.
    I am a child of Yours—
    a child of the one true
    everlasting living God.

    I am a child of Yours,
    the Father above all fathers.
    My life is no accident;
    you have created me to live
    out your purpose and reason.
    Demons, devils, and delights
    have blind the purpose you gave.
    All nay-Sayers I see in my way
    wish to separate me from you, but
    I have strength to tell them “nay†because of you.

    I am a child of Yours,
    You love me like all others.
    Before now, I didn’t know
    who you were or what
    purpose that I was received.
    Now the once dark room
    shines like your perfect face.
    A majestically, golden hue
    that would blind those who
    oppose Your almighty word!

    I am a child of Yours Father;
    my goal has never been more clear.
    This special mission that you gave me
    was designed for me to fulfill
    and complete, without questioning.
    My past “me†has passed away,
    forever laying in a restless tomb.
    You love us all the same,
    for we are only human—
    but we are all precious children of Yours!
