Poem I wrote back in 1986 and which won an award at my secular public high school.
This is a message of Jesus' true love
Called by the prophet a heavenly dove
Hundreds of years ago, he came to Earth
To provide for man a plan of rebirth.
Born to a virgin, a mere baby boy
Grew up a child with a favorite toy
Infinite wisdom to scholars he showed
Miracles amazing in Him abode
Teardrops filled footprints up Calvary's road
As blood from His wounded side freely flowed
His voice cried out and His body grew still
And storm clouds gathered with thunderings shrill
Our Heavenly Father gave up the ghost
To redeem from sin those whom he loved most
Copyright 1986 Jana McVay
