Poem from Today

12/18/2003

inspired by the poetic burst found in 2 Tim 2:11-13

He cannot disown Himself

I am His, and forever shall be, for He cannot disown Himself

Life everlasting, full and free, for He cannot disown Himself

Rescued from the race of men

Pardoned too from Adam’s sin

Joined with Him we can’t but win

For He cannot disown Himself

Even when my faith grow weak, He cannot disown Himself

Piercing through gloom He speaks, for He cannot disown Himself

Bidding me to start anew

Turn from lies; believe what’s true

Hold His hand, He’ll see me through,

For He cannot disown Himself

I am His, and He is mine, for He cannot disown Himself

Every heartache shall be fine, for He cannot disown Himself

I reign now if I endure

Tainted heart will be made pure

For He is true, my only cure

For He cannot disown Himself

I will dance forever bold, for He cannot disown Himself

Up and down the streets of gold, for He cannot disown Himself

My life hid deep where none can find

He loosed the paper chains that bind

And put me in my rightful mind

For He cannot disown Himself

Can you not feel the victory’s won, for He cannot disown Himself

Joined forever to the Son, for He cannot disown Himself

Wipe the liar’s lies away

Changing ever day by day

Morning star has come to stay

For He cannot disown Himself
