Christian Poems Welcome

You will find a wide selection of christian poems at Poem4Today.

Poetry is an excellent way of voicing your thoughts and feelings.  You may
wish to use a poem for your own meditation, during a Sunday church
service or as something to express your Christian faith.

Here's some simple poems about God and faith:-

You’re Always There for Me

When the world comes crashing in
And chaos rules my mind,
I turn my heart to you, Lord,
And pure, sweet peace I find.

You lift me out of trouble
You comfort me in pain;
You nourish, heal and cleanse me,
Like cool, refreshing rain.

In times of joy and bliss,
When things are going right,
You lift me even higher,
And fill me with delight.
You listen to my prayers;
You hear my every plea;
I’m safe because I know
You’re always there for me.

By Joanna Fuchs

Jesu

Jesu is in my heart, his sacred name
Is deeply carved there : but th’other week
A great affliction broke the little frame,
Ev’n all to pieces: which I went to seek:
And first I found the corner, where was J,
After, where ES, and next where U was graved.
When I had got these parcels, instantly
I sat me down to spell them, and perceived
That to my broken heart he was I ease you,
And to my whole is Jesu.

By George Herbert


People hurt you,
God will heal you.
People humiliate you,
God will magnify you.
People judge you,
God will justify you.

Another favourite of mine is Make me a channel of your peace, by St
Francis of Assisi.

Of course, many of the old hymns are also poetry, written to encourage and
inspire.  In addition, much of the book of Psalms was written in poetic form,
to help us understand how to speak to God, especially in difficult times.
