A Poem of Salvation

¹I am a gorgeous shell

Beautiful from the start

“Fearfully and wonderfully made”²

But host an evil heart.

Dirty, impure I am.

I made my life a jail

Locked behind thick bars

And sentenced to life in Hell.

But now I have my Savior

Jesus Christ is the One.

He came to save humanity

He's God's “only Son”³.

Jesus came to Earth

To save my fated soul;

Gave me a brand-new heart

He's far better than gold.

My shell is beautiful

And safe is my spirit,

But only because of Jesus.

He's the one I hold dearest.
