I Met Jesus Face To Face

I had walked life’s way, with greatest of ease
Always crawling, begging, and asking please;
Until one day in a quiet place,
I met Jesus face to face.

Striving toward fame, and wealth for my goal,
Much thought for my body, but not for my soul;
I had entered to win in life’s greatest race,
Until I met Jesus face to face..

Tears and bruises, were in their place,
No one else did I see but Jesus face;
And then I cried aloud, as I sat on the seat,
Looking down at Jesus feet.

My thought is now for the souls of men
I have lost my to find it again;
Ever since that day in that quiet place,
I met Jesus face to face.
