: Soul by Bicpen



Worthless and poor
naked
and shamed
 it hides.

~.~

Nowhere
before the Lord
can poor old soul
run.

~.~

He knew the cost
of
sin
and all its pleasures.

~.~

However
poor old soul
had run his race
the schoolmaster
had
discovered him.

~.~

He administered his rule.

~.~

Poor old soul could do nothing
but
admit
he had been a fool.
Christ spoke
to poor old soul
of
another life.

~.~

Soul
could choose
to go the other way.

~.~

Jesus revealed
a love
so
divine
poor old soul
could not decline.

~.~

Washed and cleansed
from
his sorry state
soul grew
bold
and
full
of
grace.

~.~

Look at poor old soul now
he gleams
old soul
was
purchased
by
Christ.

~.~

Old soul is now new.

~.~

You see
old soul was
a slave
with
a
master cruel.

~.~

Jesus made soul a master
in his palace
soul was comforted.

~.~

Never before
did
soul have any privilege
never again
would
poor old soul
be
lost.

~.~

For poor old soul
was now found
he was washed
and cleansed
in the blood
of
a
friend.
