This Isn't Folklore




2 Peter 1:16 (KJV) “For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.”



If I spoke of all the sins I’ve known,

I’d leave my fears with the love He’s grown,

When He saved me – yes, saved my soul,

That was the day that He made me whole.


If I spoke of all the doubts I’ve heard,

I’d let the stillness sing like a songbird,

Resting in the wings that seem to praise,

With a joy that remembers to amaze.


If I spoke of all the tears that I’ve cried,

I’d consider all the times when I’d backslide,

Reminding myself that grace keeps me sure,

Without a doubt, His light and love will endure.


If I spoke of the ways life seems to let me down,

I’d wonder why He didn’t just let me drown,

There isn’t clear reason for His salvation plan,

Other than He’s been here since the world began.


If I spoke of the challenges I’ve faced in life,

I’d realize that I’ve been opposed by the darkest strife,

But He knew me as the one who’d believe His love,

It came from the Creator who lives in heaven above.


If I spoke of the music that carries me through the pain,

I’d lack the words, the lyrics, to show you He will reign,

The very reason that I love when everyone says to hate,

The same reason I live a life of hope, without sin’s heavy weight.


If I spoke of the gentle faith that He encouraged inside me,

I’d be sure to reveal His kindness, grace and you’d surely agree…

With love this beautiful and true, there is only One to adore,

It is Jesus, the Christ, who is the only truth – not merely folklore.
