Son of God

A sonnet about Jesus

"Son of God" 

Each year we celebrate His birth
The King of Heaven and Lord of Earth
God knew man was in dire straits
He sent His Son to pay sin's rates.

Jesus, not known by all
Some refuse to hear His call
Many will die never calling His name
They have only their self to blame.

Jesus was and is alive
He came that we might all survive
To Him He wants us to cling
Not just His praises sing.

Come one and all to the cross
Then your soul suffers no loss.
