A Tribute to Jesus the Christ
POETS AND MUSICIANS DELIVER YOUR SONG
To Families and Friends Everywhere

Musicians yet to be born have delivered your song
How do I know, you may say
I am delivering it to you this day
You are far above the "common throng"

Because poets yet to be made
Have your chiseled message laid
On the hearts of thousands yet to come
To read the record of you, The One
Not to unearned greatness did you aspire
With the grace of the ages you do inspire
Musicians to set down melodies
Poets to dream with awed reveries

Mention of your beauty was not readily seen
Except by hearts with discernment keen
They speak of your discipline so rare
Two thousand years with you -- they are "There"

Across the passions of time
These thoughts were etched into their minds
O' to the beauty of Poets and songs of Musicians
The righteously inclined really listen

What a joy to millions you have bestowed
Elusive peace you imbued as they have strove
Mildness you wear as a lei upon your neck
Graciousness and Goodness from every aspect

None could ever know your State of Beloved
From an Almighty Father who says: "Approved!"
I, who have loved you imperfectly; but well,
Am entrusted by Musicians and Poets to tell

Unbelievable! that I am so mandated
With a cultural treasure so advocated
My love is my only humble qualification
You accepted it upon my dedication

Great things you have given from your own hand
What tribute to your Father and heritage grand
What can I say to you that you don't already know
With Poets and Musicians, I kneel at your door

Author's Comments:
"I thought this poem was going to be a tender love (Eros) song; but I realized by the third and fourth verses, I was really writing about Jesus Christ, my Lord, my Savior, my King. I was so astonished; the creative mind is truly a thing of wonder. I thank Jehovah and His Son for the truly undeserved gift of this poem."
