I was going through my poems and retyping some that have mistakes and was printing them on
pretty paper to put in an album.  I came across one that I had written last year and I was  urged to do some changing to it, and this is what I did.  This poems speaks about the way I lived my life and the One I lived it for.

 FOR HIM I LIVED 

WHEN TO THE ALTER I DID GO
MY HEART TO GOD I GAVE
WHILE DOWN ON BENDED KNEE
MY SINS HE DID FORGAVE
FROM THAT MOMENT, I WAS CHANGED
IT WAS FOR GOD I CHOSE TO LIVE.
 
EACH DAY, I MADE THE CHOICE|
TO LET GOD LEAD THE WAY
FOR IF I DID IT ON MY OWN
I WOULD EASILY BE LEAD ASTRAY
STAYING CLOSE TO GOD, I DID
I DID THIS THE MORE I PRAYED. 

AS I LIVED MY LIFE FOR GOD
I KNEW I WAS SURE TO DIE
FROM THE WORLD I WOULD BE FREE
NO MORE PAIN TO MAKE ME CRY
WHAT A GLORIOUS DAY, IT IS FOR ME
NOW I’M WITH JESUS IN THE SKY.
