Thank God

Date:

The Lord has rescued us,
From the might of darkness;
Yet we still raise a fuss,
As if still in distress.

His Son has paid the price,
You should appreciate;
Let Satan not entice,
With any sinful bait.

All sins are forgiven,
Which is our ticket;
For going to Heaven,
Since Christ has paid the debt.

He is the same image,
Of the transparent God;
Firstborn of creation,
That is pure and not flawed.

He created all things,
In Heaven and on earth;
All of which each day brings,
And beings that brought birth.

Whether as kings or lord,
Rulers having power;
It cannot be ignored,
He controls each hour.

He existed prior,
To all that we have known;
Some call me a liar,
Even if proof is shown.

He is head of the church,
Also as His body;
With answers that you search,
As righteous and godly.

First to come back to life,
And given up for loss;
Enduring all the strife,
Before hung on the cross.

We must be thanking God,
For revealing to you;
As we honor and laud,
All that is tried and true.

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.
