My Messages to You

Steve Cochrane 1955 (Cape)



I cannot reach like those who preach
But I do have a way,
Because I choose to spread Good News
Through poetry each day.

I am too meek to ever speak
To any size of crowd.
But I can write both day and night
And never be too loud.

I do believe I can achieve
Evangelism in
The poetry that lives in me
Of God's love and our sin.

So, please give praise throughout these days.
I might just be the one
That God spoke through to get to you
Before this day is done!
