You are my God (Poem)

Let me preface this: I don't really write poems. It's just difficult for me and I don't feel comfortable doing it, but in a recent Spirit-filled moment I penned a few lines. I was just trying to pour some of my heart out onto the paper, so for me, this was exciting. For my readers, I apologize in advance. But here goes:

O God, You are my God

And I will not serve another.

O God, in You I put my trust,

I will not serve another.

I will not bow down before a piece of wood

Or a carved image,

Or an idea,

Or a man,

I will not place my hope in the future,

Or progress,

Or an idea,

Or a man.

I will look to the only One who can and

will save me from death:

And to Him I write

To Him I live

To Him I run

And I will remember - always -

the nails that bore my sins

and pained my God instead of me

The greatest mystery: this unmerited exchange

So that God might live inside of me.
