Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

His promise, in the final words
a promise to keep
A book of proofs, of the fulfillment
of the testaments of old,
the law and the prophets
together in this boy, this man
a life of purity, unblemished and true
given for all, to be a sacrifice
He suffered for us, for all who sin
and rose to proclaim victory
for us all to come home
He gave a command and a charge to keep
and sealed these words
with a promise so deep
To be with us always, forever amen
through thick and thin
and each one of our days
Believe in His promise
