A Poem by Mark Tenpenny

The Best Part

…for Rusty & Lil-Bit

When the moments do come,
When I pick up His Pen,
It’s the start of another, continued
Blessed, inspired relationship with Him.

I just never know of whom, or what about.
One thing’s for sure, of subject matter,
I’m never without.

All year long, it’s always the same
Regarding our Savior.
In His loving Relationship with us,
All throughout His Word,
That was sung of in the old songs.

All because of Him, I always wanted to know
Since as a small child, of innocence not knowing.
All I ever did was just approach Him,
With only my heart showing.

Therein He did look,
Its door opened wide, just waiting for Jesus.
That’s all it took.

For He stepped on inside, and with His Spirit did fill.
To overflow on these pages, that you read of Him still.

All my life long, this gift bestowed now,
For my love of Him in all those old songs.

Many marvel, scholars don’t know what to think,
About these loving words by His Pen,
From my heart, He only allows to ink.
Just be still, and know He Is God.

— Mark Tenpenny

When the moments do come, when I pick up His Pen, it's the start of another, continued blessed, inspired relationship with Him.
