Beautiful Christian Poems

That every deed I do,
May be to someone in its turn
A service fine and true
- Anon

It matters not how large or small
Your faith may seem to be;
What really counts is whom you trust
In life's uncertainty

Resources nearly gone,
Through faith in God a Christian can
Triumphantly go on.

And whisper that He knoweth best,
Then, clinging to that guiding hand,
A weakling, in His strength I'll stand
- Pentecost

Show me the way, Lord, let my light shine
As an example of good to mankind;
Help them to see the patterns of Thee,
Shining in beauty, lived out in me.
-Neuer

I reached for God's hand full of blessings,
Because I was needy and sad;
And, oh, what a shower He gave me
From all the rich treasure He had!

Sin's pleasures have such great appeal,
They always look like bargains rare;
But seldom do we clearly see
The hidden costs that we must bear.
