Give God Thanks

Date:

Praise to God and the Father,
Of our Lord Jesus Christ;
Who is also a Brother,
Whose life had been sacrificed.

God has given a new birth,
Because of mercy and grace;
Who has known our true worth,
Always willing to embrace.

We are born in a new life,
That gave us such confidence;
To fight against the strife,
Which will give the best defense.

For Jesus Christ has come back,
Into new life have been born;
Helps us through with what we lack,
To continue to sojourn.

We have an inheritance,
That can never be destroyed;
Giving us the confidence,
That will make us overjoyed.

The inheritance is waiting,
And kept in Heaven for you;
As the Lord will be stating,
Well done on all that you do.

You are guarded by power,
Through faith for a salvation;
But knowing not the hour,
Revealing the foundation.

Wherein you greatly rejoice,
About the things that will come;
Sounds of happy from your voice,
For chasing away the glum.

Test your faith as a fire,
See if more precious than gold;
Where lies your true desire,
While your life does unfold.

You will know you did your best,
Through praise and honor to God;
And once you have passed the test,
He will purify where flawed.

Richard Sherrer is actually retired from the United States Air Force about 14 years ago. He had lived in Korea while in the Air Force in 1972 and 1973. You might be asking yourself what brought him back to Korea. I guess you could say that it was a lot of love here, for the country, the people and especially for a Christian woman that he met on the Internet. She convinced him to return to be with her. So he came originally to teach English in July of 2000. They were married July of 2001. Now turned poet which is subject that is near and dear to his heart. His love for Christ and God is an inspiration to all who read his poetry.
