REDEEMING LOVE


Redeeming Love 

Redeeming Love  
You reach out to me with open arms,  
For all the world to see , 
But I cry and wonder what it is you 
See about me that makes you love me? 
I turned a victim of Satan's charms when 
I was walking in the dark , 
And it built a wall between you and me,  
Many times I tried to scale this wall,  
But I can't do it alone , 
Your redeeming love for me had set my heart on easy, 
But when I see another woman looking at you, 
I feel I am not worth as she , 
Jehovah I cried in my nights of pains , 
Please help me I need your love in my heart,  
Then Satan will leave me alone.  
Free me please wash me clean , 
I'm asking you with the blood of your Son Jesus . 
A love so true and clean take hold of me , 
Set me free from this darkness I live in , 
To raise me each time I fall , 
Hold me when I cry and want to get out of sight, 
I can tear down this man made wall if you keep 
This love strong . 
You rescue me from my sins , 
You gave true love to find me , 
You saved me a sinner lost,  
And will welcome me back home again , 
I pray with him on hands and knees, 
thank you for giving me a love, 
that set my heart free and directed me  
To you Jehovah , 
You heard my cry in the deep of Satan world . 
And you never let go of me , 
This Redeeming Love means my life on high you given me. 
You sent me my angel to restore my heart to you, 
This love is so true , 
Jehovah you caused everything to work together, 
For the good of those who love you to see I am your lost sheep, 
You found me and taken me home were I belong .

To all my readers you may see that their are grammar errors in my old writings, but these writing are from the 90's ,2000's. I truly didn't think anyone was readying my work . so I just started writing out what I felt and made my pains a story and poems . I had re post these poems and stories all over the internet and I keep them also in file so no one can ever say my work is theirs . I have kept my work as they are just for others to see where it was I started my writing at . The pains are so real not even a game ,The life I had lived I would never wish upon no one . I like to say to all who are taking the steps for change in their life congratulations to the new open doors God bless you . You may have seen my photos on the internet and my writings on Poetry.com and poem hunter etc. you may have seen the hate that others have given to me about my work and my beauty of who I am . But as you can see I will never let the haters Stop me from doing what I love . So I say the same to all of you write your own words and let your heart speak to all your readers . I hope you can understand why I haven't made changes in my work at less not the old ones . My old work are left as they are for me to always remember where it all came from . God bless to all who reads . Lilly Emery /Judy Emery
