A poem

Religion

by royowen

Religion

They say that I'm religious but, I hope that isn't true,
Now does it mean I'll keep the law? 'cause that I just can't do.
Now If you think I'm stuck up, well that simply isn't so.
Yet God is moulding me it seems, there's many miles to go.

The Lord turned up when I was down, in me were many flaws.
He didn't send His Son to die to teach me all His laws.
The Father wants to be our dad, and teach us how to live.
He's not a tyrant who'll want to sift me through a giant sieve.

He's a perfect loving Father like nothing on this Earth.
Believe you me he wants to show, our value has great worth.
How many men would sacrifice their Son for all mankind.
Be willing to forgive their sin and to their wrong be blind?
