Poems by Richard Brian Drake

"If I Can"

If I can help one heart in need

by giving them love instead of pain,

I will be at peace with this my soul

I won't have lived in vain.

If I can replace the fears of a child

through encouragement and an understanding ear,

I will have comforted a child of God

and wiped away one tear.

If I can be a shoulder to lean on

and lend a pair of helping hands,

I will be expressing to them the love of God

by being an example to my fellow man

If I can feed one hungry soul

with a meal and God's eternal word,

I will be at peace with this my Lord

for my God my prayers were heard.

"Not Worth The Fuss"

Beyond what my eyes can see

is a heaven for those who truly believe

God has gifts and treasures safely in store

uncomprehendible there are so many more,

My trials and hardships are trivial and small

even the huge ones that cause me to fall,

When compared to the riches he has waitng for us

the trials that had upset me were not even worth the fuss.

"Heart To Heart"

Our wonderful Creator

Fashioned us with love

Made in his own image

We are a wonder from above

Gifted with many blessings

Styled by his grace

Reflections of his joy

In a smile on each face

Each one has been given

A plan from the king everyone has a purpose

In someway, in something

Jesus is the Master painter

His people are his lovely art

For we were divinely created

To live our lives~heart to heart

"Jesus Loves Me"

Jesus loves me this I know

For his blessings tell me so

Every good gift is from above

He gives to me with tender love

The Lord lights my path so I can see

All I need to know and have to be

I know he wants to give his love to you

Just call on him is all you must do

Yes Jesus loves you that's for sure

For all your problems He's the cure

For God sent his Son from up above

Not to condemn us, but to give us love
