"let me tell you about someone I know" | Christmas Poetry Collection: Poem 9

let me tell you about 

someone I know, 

His name is Jesus

a child of a carpenter 

a boy from Nazareth,

born in a manger

He creates the peaceful night in

the lion's den

the brightest light in the 

darkest of nights

He is the fourth man in the raging fire

see Daniel 3:24 to 25

He is the Son of God 

a boy of humble beginnings 

with a purpose so extraordinary

a King was born, 

born to save the world

by crucifixion on a cross

a thorned crown on his head

for our sake, a perfect man has bled

nails in His hands and feet 

so that we can be free from the 

shame and guilt and sin this world brings

He isn’t like any other King

healed the deaf with only spoken words

healed the blind with saliva and dirt

and He still does, many years later

because that is who Jesus is, a savior

He saves souls and people in graves

and those who are empty and lost

His nail scarred hands pull us 

out of raging waves,

for all of us, He has paid the cost

it has made me wonder

how a King could die in our place

give His righteous life for us

the epitome of love and grace

i can try to describe how 

holy and perfect He is,

i can write so many poems 

about His love

but to explain how wonderful Jesus is

— no amount of words will 

ever be enough

so here was a poem to tell you 

about someone I know

and around this time, 

more than two thousand years ago

the Prince of Peace and 

Mighty Counsellor was born

not only is He the Son of God

and the King of Kings, but also

a child of a carpenter 

a boy from Nazareth, 

born in a manger

merry christmas and

happy birthday,

my Lord and Savior

the biggest gift to the world

and for so many reasons

my best friend,

Jesus

 about the poem 

Jesus, the Son of God and the most perfect man, died in our place on that rugged cross and it is only through His grace that I can say I am saved. He has given us the gift of salvation, and I will forever praise Him for what He has done for us. Thank you, Jesus! 🙌🏻

For Christmas Day, I really wanted to write a poem celebrating Jesus Christ and I love how it turned out. 

Merry Christmas, dear readers, may you have a beautiful day filled with love, joy, and blessings! And may you have a fantastic New Year ❤️
