Analysis of A Yoking with Jesus (matthew eleven)



You came in time
yes just in time
and ransomed
my poor being
I knew that blood
as cleansing  flood
had offered
hopeful seeing.
a yoking fast
with Jesus taking
large part.
had made the job
to plow the sod
and rocks that
muddled my heart.
yes job got done
and I had won.
a place beside
the Master.
I look to Him
when things turn grim
and Rescue comes
the faster.

Galatians 2: 20
