I Stand
I stand in awe of the power,
Of God our Father and King,
Omnipotent Lord and Master,
Creator of all things.


I stand amazed at the Mercy,
That He has shone to me,
Condemned to burn in a fiery pit,
Yet His love has set me free.


I stand in silent reverence,
And Glory in His word,
The promise of the Gospel,
Are the sweetest sounds yet heard.


I stand in humble meekness,
In the shadow of His might,
His presence fills my soul with hope,
And removes sorrows from my sight.


I stand in admiration ,
Of His capacity for love,
He showers me with blessings daily,
From Heaven up above.


I stand upon the solid rock,
Salvation brought by faith,
Paid for with the blood of Christ,
Secured by amazing grace.


I stand in patient waiting,
For the rapture in the sky,
For the sound of Gabriel's trumpet,
For the Prince of Peace on high.


I stand in the light of His presence,
Sheltered by His mighty hand,
With my Lord and God supporting me,
Against Satan's power, I stand.


~ Calvin Hart ~

About the Author

A message from Judith Bronte: "Calvin Hart's inspirational poetry has been at Acacia Vignettes since 1998! During those eight years, his poetry has encouraged and edified many people across America and around the world. It's been a privilege to have him at Acacia Vignettes. Now, I'm pleased to announce Calvin's very first published book entitled, Poems of Praise! If you're already a fan of his poetry, then I encourage you to read this book. It contains the poems you see here, and many more-- 121 in all! Let's hope this book is the first of many to come!"
