Unseen

Date:

We are sojourners in this place,
That are scattered around the world;
Asking God to pour forth His grace,
Allowing His plan be unfurled.

God the Father knew long ago,
And chose you to live holy lives;
So in you His glory would glow,
While the Holy Spirit thrives.

So you be obedient to Christ,
Be sprinkled with the crimson tide;
Let not for you to be enticed,
By this world so you can abide.

May good will and peace fill your lives,
His grace in you be multiplied;
As we wait for when Christ arrives,
For the marriage feast with His bride.

God has given us a new birth,
Because of His mercy and grace;
The Father knows of your true worth,
Has the compassion to embrace.

We have been born in a new life,
Having confidence to survive;
Able to cope with all the strife,
Keeps hope in Jesus Christ alive.

In a new life we have been born,
In which has an inheritance;
As we continue to sojourn,
Here building our confidence.

It can never be corrupted,
Neither razed nor faded away;
Continuous not disrupted,
Will never allow you to stray.

The inheritance in Heaven,
And is guarded by our Lord;
Through the salvation as given,
To be revealed never ignored.

Although that you have never seen,
That Christ is loved and adored;
As He has and as He has been,
Remembering Jesus is Lord.

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.
