Poetry is a composition in verse that describes something and can be used to help illuminate a Biblical truth. Maybe you have written some verses for your sermons, for personal inspiration or even for a song. Please share your best one (or two or three) that helps drive home a Biblical truth.
You can submit your poetry at the bottom of this page. You can even comment on other works that have been submitted. If you have not written any poetry of your own, you may submit the words to your favorite songs that are in the public domain, which would be older hymns and choruses. Many of these old songs have great verses that help support the Scripture.
