Stained Glass Window

Stained...with the sin of every man
True love for the person that I am
You died so that I may take your hand
And live a life for you, Jesus Christ, Amen

Stained...with blood from head to toe
Bearing all the pain so that I may never know
Life without you, Lord, a life so unwhole
Stained...to cleanse my soul

My stained glass window
Created just for me
My stained glass window
For everyone to see
A sight to remind me of everything you did
Of all your love and all you have to give

Like glass...you're as fragile as can be
But sturdy when I need you - a protectant just for me
You shatter for me whenever I may leave
But return to shield me when I come back on my knees

My stained glass window
Created just for me
My stained glass window
For everyone to see
A sight to remind me of everything you did
Of all your love and all you have to give

My window, my way to see the love
Of God Almighty, the one who sits above
You show me all these things, alone, I'd never have known of
My window, my way to love

My stained glass window
Created just for me
My stained glass window
For everyone to see
A sight to remind us of everything you did
Of all your love and all you have to give

Our window, our way to see the truth
Of God's love, waiting just for you
The windows open, what are you going to do?
Live an empty life or one so pure and true?

------- Author's Notes -------

God has been such a blessing in my life. Before I never had the words to write about the Lord because I wasn't fully letting him into my life. Now, my life is beautiful.

It was beautiful...

It was beautiful Linzay, truely it was. I myself write poetry about God as well, I just have yet to add these poems to this site. But yeah, I get where you're coming from. Its awesome when the Lord can truly give us the inspiration we need to glorify Him, cuz its not about religion...its about Him!
