“Have you ever been to Faithful? <br />To Truth His only Son <br />Did you bi-pass All That’s Evil <br />Since time was first begun <br /> <br />Did you look on True Perfection? <br />Did you see His smiling face? <br />Did you wonder your election? <br />Because of past disgrace <br /> <br />Did He tell you not to worry? <br />Taking you by the hand <br />Whispering ‘no need to hurry <br />In time you’ll understand’ <br /> <br />Did you feel The Glow within you? <br />Perceive those eyes aflame? <br />Witness The Wind, and as it blew <br />He softly called your name <br /> <br />Did you see Supreme Endurance? <br />Long Suffering and Grace <br />Who gave with Sweet Assurance <br />Salvation’s Warm Embrace <br /> <br />Did He touch your heart touch your soul? <br />Reveal to you True Love <br />Promise you Help toward life’s goal <br />To show The Way above <br /> <br />Did you see the holes in hands and feet? <br />The punctures on His brow <br />Upon His face a smile so sweet <br />That brought your knees to bow <br /> <br />Did your eyes fill up with tears? <br />Did your heart feel all aglow? <br />Did He vanquish all your fears? <br />Saying ‘I love you so’”<br /><br />Michael P.
