Penny poetry is just a phrase which came to me while I was trying to think of a name for this blog. It probably means nothing to anyone else, but to me it means these poems are worth about as much as the proverbial "penny for your thoughts."

Jesus Christ the Servant
I came to be a servant – to teach you how to live.
– to give all I had to give.
– to show you right from wrong.
– to fill your mind with glory
and fill your heart with song
I came to be a servant – to promise you a home.
– so you’d never be alone.
– to pass along God’s grace.
– to show how much God loves you
— any time — any place.
I came to be a servant – to change the ways of man
– all according to God’s plan.
– to be sacrificed, misunderstood.
– to bleed and die at Calvary
upon a cross of wood.
I came to be a servant – to live within your heart.
– to set my own apart.
– to offer hope and conquer sin
– to give you everlasting life
– if you will just invite me in!
