    About this ebook

    Starting with the Psalms, poetry has long had a beloved and important place in Christian culture. Mark Anthony Grubb continues and maintains that tradition with this volume of poetry that will bring you to spiritual heights you have never experienced.

    Grubb’s gifted hand weaves a gamut of cadenced expressions, including the cross of Jesus, death and dying, gratitude for moms, a celebration of nature, God’s promises expressed in the coming of spring, questioning whether Jesus ever laughed, honor for the flag, and many more. For the faithful, this book will encourage, enlighten and challenge. For others, a journey with Grubb’s verse will inspire you to contemplate your spiritual condition.

    Lovers of inspirational lyrical poetry will find a treat in this classic hardback volume of 77 poems.

      Your Poetry

      Apr 30, 2021

      I once was a chestnut, I hung from a tree,Like all of the young, I longed to be free.One day I landed, it felt like a mile.I need not have worried, I was in Hutton soil.My work had just started, ‘twas about 1803.That’s when I knew, I’d become a tree.

      Dedication

      I dedicate this book first of all to the glory of my Almighty God and to my Lord & Savior Jesus Christ, who has been the voice out of silence that has persuaded me to write most of the words you will read. In the stillness and darkness of night, even when my shadow abandons me, he is always with me.

      I also dedicate this book to my loving wife Rocio for her encouragement to fulfil an unspoken promise. To my late mother Ruby, who was my first human contact, the first woman I loved, the one who soothed me on restless late night watches and, above all, for being my spiritual rock and the still waters that gave me sanctuary in the depth of God’s word.

      To everyone who reads these words I hope you will be lifted up by the same Holy Spirit and by the word that comes with an urgent sense of time. It is my hope and prayer that this little light of mine will shine strong enough so that you will be filled with the joy and reflection that comes from knowing the great I Am and the fullness of his love, his mercy and his grace.

      The cross you were nailed to for us has remained,
