The Risen King

Thankful for the Christmas season, but not willing to leave our Savior in manger.


Poem Artwork


 

He is not a baby in a manger

waiting to be fed.

 

He is not a martyr on a cross,

our Savior is not dead.

 

For if we leave Him in the manger

what power does he wield?

 

If we leave Him on the cross

how is our hope fulfilled?

 

It is only by seeing the Risen King

and His resurrection power

 

that we can share in the hope to come

that in that final hour

 

when the trumpet blows and dead shall rise

we will be in that great  throng

 

and we will kneel before our Lord and King

as He assumes His throne.

Most of my poetry is not in rhyme, but it seems when I write a religious poem I almost always gravitate toward a rhyming scheme. Not sure why, but just seems to work out that way.
