Christian Poems

~ The Closing of a Door ~

by Janet Martin

 

That will not be just any closing of the door

When it swings shut it will be like never before

We come and go just as we please but then, no more

No, that will not be just any closing of the door

 

Those will not be just any tears we shed

If we look up, behold the cross and turn our heads

If we wait until judgement hope is dead

No, those will not be just any tears we shed

 

These are not just any words He writes

There is no gray, all is black and white

We ought to tremble at His power and might

No, these are not just any words He writes

 

That will not be just any closing of the door

As the elements melt with a mighty roar

And God's wrath on wickedness will pour

No, that will not be just any closing of the door
