Poem Matthew

In the book of Matthew it starts, a tale so divine,

A lineage of grace, in Bethlehem it aligns.

Jesus, the son of Mary and God himself as well,

A story of salvation, a story we must tell.

The Sermon on the Mount, as the blessed gather 'round,

The meek, the merciful, in His love they are found.

"Seek ye first the kingdom," in Matthew six verse thirty-three,

In the heart of God's will, is where we're meant to be.

Walking on the water, calming the stormy sea,

Matthew eight, verse twenty-seven, shows His authority.

With faith as small as mustard seed, mountains we shall move,

Matthew seventeen, verse twenty, this truth behooves.

The greatest commandment, in Matthew twenty-two, verse thirty-eight,

"Love the Lord thy God," with all thy heart do not hesitate.

And the second is akin, "Love thy neighbor as thyself,"

In these two commandments, all the law and prophets dwell.

In Matthew twenty-eight, a commission so profound,

Go, make disciples of all nations, let His grace abound.

Baptizing in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,

Teaching them to observe His words, in His love we boast.

His resurrection power, His victory over the grave,

In Matthew's final chapter, we find that we are saved.

For He is with us always, even to the very end,

In Jesus Christ, our Savior, in him we can depend.
