111 Spiritual Poems

By James Nix

This book is designed to bring families close together in their heart by writing heartfelt words in a poem fashion as a message in love. In this book, 111 Spiritual Poems, Vol No. 1, you will find poems about family, poems about church, poems uplifting, even poems about death. My favorite is "To My Family," to let us know they are still alive in heaven. There are also poems about some famous people in the Bible. I have even written poems about hell because, as a pastor, I want people to understand that going to hell is a real possibility and to keep our lives directed toward Jesus Christ, our savior. My hope is that all who reads this book will find something in it that will help them to be happy and, when they are depressed, to have a brighter and blessed day. Amen!

The Story Begins

It was the summer of 1995

When these poems came alive

It began to thunder

As I began to wonder

It was as if Jesus was talking to me

And I could clearly see

I began to write

As the words were in sight

It was a wonderful feeling

As the Lord kept revealing

I thought I must share

For I really do care

These are more than words

The like I have never heard

Angels Everywhere

Angels are truly everywhere,

You can just feel them in the air.

Angels are not just in heaven,

Just ask Peter and the eleven.

Angels will ride in your car,

And go with you very far,

Angels will encamp all around,

So listen and they’ll be found.

Angel appear like flesh and blood,

And your veins will run like a flood.

Angels don’t need a key,

They come easily to you and me.

Remember we are in the Lord’s care,

And his love he will share.

Angels are so very real,

And they have our savior’s seal.

When you feel something close by,

It could be an angel from on high.

An angel is a messenger of the Lord,

So, they may bring us a reward.

When you are awakened out of sleep,

And your heart starts to beat

Remember we belong to Jesus,

An angel has come to please us.

Just remember that this being,

Could be an angel you are seeing.

For angels are in the air,

And they might come if you care.

Just think the pleasure of knowing,

You could witness an angel showing.

That might not be the wind,

It could be an angel descend.

You could receive an angel’s touch,

Because Jesus loves you very much.

So, remember when you are all alone.

That noise could be an angel—

In your home!

Amen.

Presence of Angels

The wind can howl and blow,

For the angels have time to sow.

Angels are rarely seen,

And they will make your heart gleam.

Some have entertained angels unaware,

So you need to search and prepare.

What if you saw an angel today?

What would you have to say?

Be ready just at any time,

As your heart may begin to chime.

Just when you think you are all alone,

An angel could be in your home.

Angels have no need for a key,

They can be easy to see.

Angels are very real,

And they have our savior’s seal.

The Bible talks about Jacob’s ladder,

And how it made his heart clatter.

Angels appeared to Lot and his wife.

They tried to save his very life.

An angel cooked for Elijah the prophet,

To finish his journey, and not stop it.

An angel brought Peter out of jail.

He had the keys for his bail

Angels can camp all around you.

They are there to help us through.

So if you see a stranger,

It could be an angel to warn of danger.

You never know when you go to bed,

Of the visions that appear in your head.

For angels are everywhere,

They come to all who care.

Angels are sent here to help us,

They are messengers of Christ Jesus.

When our time here is gone,

An angel will take us to heaven—

Where we belong.

My Handsome Sweetheart

Oh my handsome sweetheart, none can compare,

To the wonderful glow in your moonlit hair.

And will stand the roughest test.

And will certainly never die.

My Handsome Husband

You are so wonderful and so great,

And you help carry a lot of weight.

What makes our love so grand,

Is we are both in the Lord’s hand!

I put just one thing before you my sweet,

And that is Jesus who cannot be beat

With Jesus down in our heart,

That is what keeps us so we won’t part

You are my husband to whom I spend my life,

I am your true and only wife.

When you are gone for the day,

I pray that Jesus will lead your way.

You are my husband, lone and true,

And I will never depart from you.

Jesus has given us this wonderful love.

That is why we will live far above.

Even though our life is great and full,

We still have to work together and pull,

As we grow in the Lord and get strong,

It’s you and the Lord to whom I belong.

Sometimes when we don’t see eye to eye or agree,

With Jesus in our hearts, we can still see.

You are in my heart and in my mind,

And you are very thoughtful and kind.

In our life we have to back each other up,

And then let Jesus in our heart to sup.

You are my husband, and I love you so much,

Of the things on earth you are the best of such!

Our life together has just began,

Jesus is my Lord and you are my man.

When we get to heaven we will live with Jesus,

For in heaven he will never leave us.

If we stay with Jesus and never be bent,

And get the lost saved to whom we are sent,

Then in heaven our family will forever be,

And then we will live throughout all eternity.

With love, your wife.

My Lovely Wife

You have given me such a wonderful life,

Jesus gave you to me for my wife.

You have always been there for me,

When I get home it’s you I want to see.

We have together a wonderful love,

It came from Jesus our Father above.

With Jesus in our heart it’s easy to share,

For each other we really do care!

In the past, we have been in a fuss,

But it can be overcome with Jesus.

We have family and our kids are known,

But at night it is just you and I alone.

We back each other up at all times,

It does not matter whether we have any dimes.

Jesus gives us this wonderful togetherness,

You are my woman for thankfulness!

The Lord has given us this wonderful light,

So let’s keep it shining ever so bright

True love is full of the Holy Ghost,

I love you, Wife, to the uttermost

What a wonderful wife you have been,

I want us both to go to heaven in the end.

Sometimes I call you the boss!

Without you and Jesus I would be lost.

Jesus has given us miracles of life,

One of the best is you, my love and wife.

If we can show what marriage is all about,
