Religious Poems
St. Peter's Day
by George Wither
How watchful neede we to become,
And how devoutly pray,
That thee, O Lord, we fall not from,
Upon our tryall day !
For if thy great apostle said
He would not thee denie,
Whom he that very night denayd,
On what shall we relie ?
For of ourselues we cannot leaue

We will come us we are
by Aldo Kraas
We will come us we are
And meet our Father
Face to face
We feel pity
For those that are
Destroying there health
We don't think they have
Anything better to do than smoke street drugs
What a waste of life it is
Also they are buying street drugs

Hagar In The Wilderness
by Tyehimba Jess
Carved Marble. Edmonia Lewis, 1875
My God is the living God,
God of the impertinent exile.
An outcast who carved me
into an outcast carved
by sheer and stony will
to wander the desert
in search of deliverance
the way a mother hunts

The Legend Of Faith
by Sir Lewis Morris
THEY say the Lord of time and all the worlds,
Came to us once, a feeble, new-born child ;
All-wise, yet dumb ; weak, though omnipotent:
Surely a heaven-sent vision, for it tells
How innocence is godlike. And the Lord
Renews, through childhood, to our world-dimmed eyes,
The half forgotten splendours of the skies.
And because motherhood is sacreder
And purer far than any fatherhood,

Senseless
by FELLEX CHECA
Words of no profit,
Chitchat and debate
worth no participate!
Rather saving the lost,
Edifying the synagogue.
It’s the beast works
For men to mine;
Strifes among themselves,

I never caused trouble
by Aldo Kraas
I never caused trouble
In my friends life
I always respect their
Wishes
They want me to treat them right
Not coursing at them
That is a horrible thing to do
Also I mistreat them
None friends like to be mistreated
They want to be treated with respect

Don't ask me why
by Aldo Kraas
Don't ask me why
Why God made me
Don't ask me why
I am a child of God
Don't ask me why
I am a middle class person
Don't ask me why
I made friends with poor people
I don't like the rich people at all
Because they despise the poor people
......
Even though I love you
by Aldo Kraas
Even though I love you
My dear Father
For have made me
With your holy hands
Many years ago
Yes I am glad that
I can live my life the way
I want every single day
AIso I need to live my life to the fullest
Every single day

for haven't you heard

from young to old
of those who seek
the kingdom of God
in which we speak
