About this Christian Poet:
I have been a widower for the past four and a half years. I am a Sunday School teacher and one who prays.
A Life Laid Down
A life laid down,
At His feet;
Peace and joy,
Softly meet.
This my hope,
This my prayer;
Casting to Him,
My every care.
A servant's heart,
Day after day;
Loving Him,
My only pay.
This my goal,
This my prayer;
In His garden,
I'll meet Him there.
A garden of love,
Resting in Him;
His cup of joy,
Filled to the brim.
In human terms,
Perhaps alone;
His love, however,
My powerful Stone.
