That Man of Galilee

This is a poem I wrote while I was on my mission. I feel like it describes at least a portion of how I feel about Jesus Christ.

That Man of Galilee

By: Matt Blakely

That Man who was above all others,
The One whose face I long to see-
He descended below all things,
Suffered and died, even for me.
He did not say He was one of many,
He boldly said "I am the way."
He's commanded us to be like Him,
So with all the energy of heart I pray-
Lord, wilt thou forgive my weaknesses,
My many flaws you easily see.
Yet I know that with Thy strength,
Even I may become like Thee.
