The Spiritual Poems of Eddie Lehman

A Winter's hawk flies high calling
The bright blue sky sees clouds rolling
Heaven's Gates open yawning
A man we love goes home

Dedicated to Eddie Lehman by Beau Pottorff - 2000

The New Year with Christ

"I am with you" the Lord did say
To Jacob, who in flight that day
Knew loneliness. God met his need
With Words - encourag'd him indeed!

"I am with you" where 'er you go,
So God assur'd Jacob. And so,
As we enter one more new year
God's presence means: "Be of Good Cheer."

"I am with you" where 'er you go;
"I will watch over you"; also
Guide and direct you this new year -
Did this for Jacob - have no fear.

"I'm with you" - He Who made the day,
Jesus, knows what lies on the way;
Will lead us to the Father - dear -
For rich blessings for the new year.

As Lord, "I'm with you" - day by day,
Will watch ov'r you along life's way;
With faith in Christ you are My own,
To be bless'd with your heav'nly home.
