“GOOD OR BAD?”
© 1997 Patricia L. Carpenter
{Poem Book 2}



Can you be so ‘good’ *
that you can ‘save yourself’?
Or do you think you’re so ‘bad’ *
that Christ wouldn’t ‘give’ Himself?

Give Himself as a ‘Ransom’ *
so that you can ‘truly’ live,
All you have to do is have ‘faith’
& your heart to Him just ‘give’!

We cannot ‘boast’ nor ‘earn’ Salvation
our ‘good deeds’ will never SAVE us,
Only Christ’s ‘shed BLOOD’ can cover
& hide ‘God’s wrath’ from all of us!

Now, please don’t misunderstand me
‘good deeds’ have their place, *
For without them we can’t ‘prove’
we are even in this ‘race’! *

So ‘run’ ~
run with all your might,
‘Praise & Thank’ our Lord
that HE HAS WON the ‘fight’! *

* Jn.3; Jn.4; Rom.3:21-31; Ps.37:18 & 112:9 & Jas.2:18-20;
I Cor.9:25; Titus 3:5-7.                                       10/27/96
