Poetry

About 12 years ago I wrote this poem. It came into my head with a melody. I need one of my composing friends to help me out!

I BELIEVE by Deb Horst

I can’t begin to understand all the riches of His plan,

It’s far above what my mind can perceive.
But this I know;
That here below, I will trust Him as I go,
And every day I will say, “I believe!”

Along the way I’ll suffer trials and some pain a little while.
Sometimes it’s hard, but to His arms I can flee.
But this I know;
I will grow into His likeness as I go,
And then with joy I can say, “I believe!”

In God’s great love for all mankind, He works a plan with you in mind,
“Adopted child, through Jesus Christ, My grace receive.”
Oh, this I know;
His Spirit flows on you, His child, as you go,
So you can say for His praise, “I believe!”

I believe in His plan of salvation!
I believe in Jesus Christ my Lord!
Lord, take my hand, and lead me through, I want to be more like You.
Make me more, make me more, like Jesus.


Peace, ya'll.
