It is He alone

It is He alone
It is He alone who listens to my pleas for help
And provides me with everything that I need
It is He alone who lifts me
When I drown in depths of despair
It is He alone who gives me peace and happiness
In times of sorrow and grief
It is He alone who holds my hand and guides me
When I’m lost in the glitter of this illusionary world
It is HE alone who died on 
Calvary for me
To save me from my transgressions
And grant me eternal life
When I didn’t deserve one.
It is He alone that I love
It is He alone that I have
In this world of deception and betrayal.

Life

Life

Life starts with a baby

Born into a busy world

With blessings of the creator

Cuddles in the arm of the mother

Opening the twinkling eyes

Beholding the beauty of nature

Growing up knowledge and wisdom

Enjoying the pleasures of the world

Second by second, day by day

Year by year passes by-

But man knows not

Of his short life on earth

Enjoys the world, knows not his

Creator

He knoweth not that the time has come

For him to leave abruptly.

His worldly belongings

And his treasures on earth,

He could not carry

On his journey to the other shore.

His life is a warning to the young

Generation

To stay faithful to the creator.
