Because of Him

Because of Calvery, I know
Hope, joy, peace and
God's greatest gift, his Son.
Life just as it is meant to be.
Gifts but for HIM I may not have known

Because of HIM, I see
The brilliance of a new day,
the splendor of the rising sun.
It's life as it is meant to be.
A day but for Calvery I may not have seen.

Because of HIM, I am
Continuing to grow , to seek
patience , kindness and goodness.
Life as you should let it be.
A desire but for Calvery that meight not have been.

Because of Calvery, I have
A wish to be faithful and have self control.
A quest for the truth , and for wisdom .
Complements to life as it is meant to me.
A need but for HIM I may not have had.
