New Poetry Book Pg. 6

I require nothing from You

I ask for nothing

Not a husband, not anything

Except what I need to obey

I long to be

Completely unselfish toward You

Just the way You are to me, always

Just every day what I need

To do Your will

After You died for me

Who am I to require a single thing

Even a single smile

In a whole year

You went through that

When You were here

That's what I want

That's what You desire

Such love

Such love I want to prove toward You

Everything I have

I won't replace

My broken brush

I won't buy new shoes

I will give anything I own

Just ask Lord, please just ask

The kind of wealth I want

Is a box of memories

You put in the box

Memories from this life

Of when I really blessed You

That is what is valuable

What truly blessed You

How much I blessed You

Denying myself, taking up my cross

And following You

Suffering persecution

Leading many to find You

Always fasting and praying for the lost and Your people

Helping out my brothers and sisters

And other people who need it

Glory be to You alone

Please help me really and truly bless You

Blood red blood

Passionate red blood

Runs down our walls

We live here

We have lived here for a while

You have Your precious terrible scars

And I have my scarlet too

A hole in my arm

A mark of suffering

They took my blood too

Oh how I've loved You

I'm so happy and so glad

To go through it for You

Please know how I love You

Oh please know how I love You

All of my blood

Belongs to You

And everything I do

Everything I do

My whole day is Yours

My whole life is Yours

The life You want

Exactly what You want

Scarlet love

Between me and You

Nothing else

Will do

Nothing else will do

Blood red love

Passionate blood red love

Blood is red

Blood is scarlet

My little scar-let

What I have seen

I'll never forget

What I went through

I'll never forget

Such deep pain

I've lived in

For a long time

Constant unbelievably

Unfair treatment

Such scornful

Disrespect

Worthless and ashamed

In the eyes of many

I had no one to talk to

No one cared

No one would understand

I carried such suffering

Alone, for many years

From the hands of evil people

Who hated me

Because I love Jesus

The pain and the scars

I treasure them

The suffering, my suffering

Covers Your precious holes

In Your hands

With the warmest love, Lord

The warmest admiration

And respect and adoration

The utmost deep affections

The reddest love

So much suffering

I have to place

At Your worthy feet

All the lonely tears

That painfully always, constantly

Fell from my eyes

A Man of Sorrows

When You were here

You were despised

I did nothing wrong

To deserve this abuse

And every single scar

And there are many

Lovingly holds close to my heart

What You, precious Lord,

Went through

Shame and hatred

Mingled with love

Shame that isn't ours

Hatred that proves our love

Deep hatred You went through

And me too

Yes, how dearly Father

Do I love You

My jewels

My treasure

My bowing of the knee

In all no matter how difficult

Forever Lord

You are worthy Lord

Forever

The hatred all over You

I have tasted richly

It is my treasure

In my treasure box

My heart

Where all my treasures are

And they all have Your name on them

You cover shame

The overwhelming sense

That I am so terrible

In a way that will never go away

You, You

Lord God Holy Alone

Left Your throne

To come to earth

And suffer every day of Your life

And die a terribly cruel death

For me

To heal me

From my deserved shame

And the shame of others' abuse

So kind Lord

I don't hate myself anymore

You fixed me

I am loved

I am pure

Something I have never known

Outside of You

There's nothing wrong with me anymore

I'm not ashamed

I'm accepted now

Humiliated

In front of everyone

My whole life

But now

Accepted

No matter who I'm around

Protected

Watched over

Important

Valuable

Precious

Beautiful

Lovely

With serious purpose

Bind me up in Your chains forever

Forever I will do all You say

You are my Master

And I am Your slave

A slave of righteousness

I stay right under Your foot

Bind me up in Your chains forever

Forever I will do all You say

I'll willingly be Your slave

For You are Love

How I shall slave away

Every snowflake is different

Every single one

So beautiful and full of lovely emotion

I want to feel the emotion

Of every single one, every single one

That ever fell

From Jesus' eyes

Tender and precious forever

To my heart

To my soul 

Everything to me

Beautiful, pure, clean

Snowflakes

Falling amongst the 

Bare winter branches

Making cold

Jesus' veins

Until they all melted

And were warmed

And forgot about the winter

And He is smiling, deep in the everything of who He is

And the trees have His life in them again

Every snowflake

A revelation of how He feels

For every sin

Done against Him

I want to know

I care about it all

I want to know

About all of it

You cared about me

Like that

You told me to care for others like that

I bow to and respect You

In all of every revelation

And I honor You

For everything You went through

Most Holy, Most High and Lofty Holy One

Precious risen Lord

He reigns forever

Such happiness in such sadness

So much blessing in such poor treatment

So much joy in intense hurting

So much love in so much pain

How I love You

How I intensely adore You

I will never turn away

I will bow my knee

And do Your will

Moments of happiness, covetous of times

Of dying to self

Be pleased Oh Holy Deserving One

My heart could burst

From so much love

Everything else

Completely boring and rubbish

My Treasure

And my Treasure alone by far

So happy to gain You eternally

So happy to suffer Precious Lord

You I glorify and praise alone

Your beauty is great

I gaze upon You in such great awe

So captivated

You are God, You shall be worshipped eternally

I have fallen so hard for You

Every sadness and abuse I am so

Happy to have known

Because of You

I love You

You are Love

You are neverending Love

You are a flame

An infinitely powerful Flame

A beauty no one will ever 

Fully understand

You are Forever Beautiful

Perfect, Spotless, without Fault

Nothing amiss, Beauty Forever

Infinitely Powerful Flame of Beauty

In Eternal Length

Breathtakingly Lovely in Everything

You Are, Do, And Have Done Forever!

You laid aside Your way more

Than deserved and fitting crown

To serve many beggars

The whole earth sings Your praise

You are the shining Precious Star

All bow to 

Everything revolves around You,

Forever

You gave Your life for me

You're my Lovely Muse forever

My heart full of

The vehement flame

The flame of flames

The burning flame

The vehement flame

So out of my league

The King of the Universe

High and Lofty

Shall I die

So sweetly for You

All day

Every day

Every time

May I obsess and hold

Your cross in my heart

All day

Every day

All the time

My only Jewel

My only Treasure

Your heart

Seen by what You did

Undeserving of knowing richly

Your suffering

Undeserving

But deeply may I die

Tears that fall down my face

Many tears have fallen down my face

Every tear that falls down my face

Is a tear that fell down Your face

When You were dying on the cross

That makes them

The happiest tears I could ever cry

The deep sadness

Of what they have done to me

Turns into

The deepest, very deepest happiness

That could ever happen to me

Because of You

I love You dearly

And when I see You later

I will know

How filled with joy You will be

Recounting every time these things happened to me, for You

And I will be so glad

That You are filled with the deepest of joys

Forever

Oh deserving King Jesus

Be glorified

In everything I have been through for You
