I AM JIMMY FROM INDIA ,VERY CALM AND COOL IN NATURE. MY INTEREST IS IN WRITING POEMS. MY ONE POEM " VIOLENCE IN GUJARAT" WAS SELECTED FOR SEMI-FINALS IN INTERNATIONAL ONLINE POETRY CONTEST AND I WAS INVITED TO WASHINGTON DC. AND IN POETRY.COM I HAVE ACHIEVED UP TO LEGENDARY POET LEVEL.
**"Alas , alas , the great city,
where all who had ships at sea.
grew rich by her wealth !
For in one hour she has been laid waste.
Rejoice over her, O heaven,
you saints and apostles and prophets !
For God has given judgment for you against her ."
"With such violence Babylon the great city
will be thrown down ,
and will be found no more;
and the sound of harpists
and minstrels and of flutists and trumpeters
will be heard in you no more ;
and the sound of the millstone
will be heard in you no more;
and the light of a lamp
will shine in you no more;
and the voice of bridegroom and bride
will be heard in you no more ;
for your merchants were the magnates of the earth,
and all nations were deceived by your sorcery.
And in you was found the blood of prophets and of saints.
and of all who have been slaughtered on earth"**

** When we shall see the ransomed host ,
Oh ! what a joy unspeakable,
All nations gathered, kindreds , tongues
With God to dwell.
In a twinkling , in a twinkling,
Glory ! Hallelujah !
We'll be raptured , to His *****
Shouting 'Maranatha' !
Sweet voices blend with one accord,
To worship God.
The days are fleeting , end is nigh,
A precious thought to every saint,
We've waited long for that bright morn,
And ne'er did faint.
The kingdom cometh , reign of peace,
When God is King , then blissful mirth,
The saints with him as Kings and priests
Return to earth.
In days of yore the saints foretold,
That God would dwell with mortal men,
The earth restored , as Eden was,
For sons of men.
Then as the rose the deserts bloom ,
No maimed are there , no blind, no dumb,
When lamb and wolf with leopard lie,
Thy Kingdom come. **

"Blessed be the Lord God of Israel,
for he has looked favorably
on his people and redeemed them,
He has raised up a mighty savior for us
in the house of his servant David,
as he spoke through the
mouth of his holy
prophets from of old,
that we would be saved
from our enemies and
from the hand of all who hate us.
Thus he has shown the
mercy promised to our ancestors,
and has remembered his holy covenant,
the oath that he swore to our ancestor Abraham,
to grant us that we ,being rescued from the hands of our enemies,
might serve him without
fear, in holiness and righteousness
before him all our days.
And you,child, will be called
the prophet of the Most High;
for you will go before the
Lord to prepare his ways,
to give knowledge of
salvation to his people
by the forgiveness of their sins.
By the tender mercy of our God,
the dawn from on high will
break upon us.
to give light to those who sit
in darkness and in the shadow of death,
to guide our feet into the way of peace."**

And Mary' said,
**My soul magnifies the Lord ,
and my spirit rejoices in
God my Savior,
for he has looked with favor
on the lowliness of his servant.
Surely, from now on all
generation will call me blessed;
for the Mighty One has done
great things for me,
and holy is his name .
His mercy is for those who fear him
from generation to generation.
He has shown strength with his arm;
he has scattered the proud
in the thoughts of their hearts.
He has brought down the powerful from their thrones,
and lifted up the lowly,
he has filled the hungry with good things,
and sent the rich away empty,
He has helped his servant Israel,
in remembrance of his mercy,
according to the promise he
made to our ancestors,
to Abraham and to his
descendants forever."**

**RISING SUN RISE UP THE SKY,
BE LIKE A RISING SUN AND BRIGHT IN THE WORLD,
BRIGHT YOUR HEART WITH NEW WISHES,
WAKE UP FROM YOUR DEEDS,
WAKE UP FROM YOUR SINS,
WAKE UP FROM YOUR OLD ROUTINE,
BREAK UP YOUR BAD HABITS,
BREAK UP YOUR WEAK MINDS,
BREAK UP YOUR EVIL THOUGHTS,
DRY UP YOUR CHEATING SKILLS,
DRY UP YOUR BETRAYING HABITS,
DRY UP YOUR TRECHEROUS MIND,
DRY UP YOUR HATING SKILLS.**

**Everlasting joys are flowing like a river,
More abundant life, the Comforter has come.
Glory! Hallelujah! He abides for ever,
Spread it far and wide, the Comforter has come.
Comforter divine, blessed Holy Ghost,
Promise of the Father, fill this waiting host;
Overcoming sin, purity within,
Joy to overflowing - this is Pentecost.
Saints of old they tarried in the upper chamber,
Thirsting for the Spirit all with one accord;
Tongues of fire descended , we shall ever remember;
Power of Pentecost that brought the glory down.
So to-day we're waiting , for the gift from heaven,
Send the latter rain, Oh! fill us now we pray,
Purifying Fire now purge us from all leaven,
Comforter divine , descend on us to-day.
When the Holy Ghost makes His abode within us,
All desires for worldly pleasures fade away;
Fleshy lust and anger crucified within us,
Power to overcome,He gives us from that day.**

**When none was found to ransom me, He was found worthy.
To set world of sinners free, He was found worthy.
Oh, the bleeding Lamb ! Oh, the bleeding Lamb !
Oh , the bleeding Lamb , He was found worthy.
To take the book and loose the seal , He was found worthy.
To bruise the head that bruised His heel , He was found worthy.
To bridge the gulf'twixt man and God, He was found worthy.
And save the rebels by His blood, He was found worthy.
To open wide the gates of heaven , He was found worthy.
To Him all Majesty is given , He was found worthy.
To reign o'er all the ransomed race, He was found worthy.
I've tasted of His saving grace, He was found worthy.
His blood has washed me white as snow, He was found worthy.
And to His fulness I shall grow, He was found worthy.**

** WHEN I SURVEY THE WONDROUS CROSS
ON WHICH THE PRINCE OF GLORY DIED,
MY RICHEST GAIN I COUNT BUT LOSS,
AND POUR CONTEMPT ON ALL MY PRIDE.
FORBID IT, LORD THAT I SHOULD BOAST,
SAVE IN THE DEATH OF CHRIST , MY GOD;
ALL THE VAIN THINGS THAT CHARM ME MOST,
I SACRIFICE THEM TO HIS BLOOD.
SEE , FROM HIS HEAD, HIS HANDS, HIS FEET,
SORROW AND LOVE FLOW MINGLED DOWN;
DID EVER SUCH LOVE AND SORROW MEET,
OR THORNS COMPOSE SO RICH A CROWN?
WERE THE WHOLE REALM OF NATURE MINE,
THAT WERE AN OFFERING FAR TOO SMALL;
LOVE SO AMAZING , SO DIVINE,
DEMANDS MY SOUL , MY LIFE, MY ALL.**

**BE BRIDGE BETWEEN HUMAN KINDS,
NEVER BECOME KNIVES TO DESTROY HUMAN KINDS,
BE BRIDGE BETWEEN TWO NATIONS,
NEVER BECOME WARRIOR TO DESTROY THE NATIONS.
BE BRIDGE BETWEEN TWO LOVERS
NEVER BE THIRD TRIANGLE OF TWO LOVERS,
BE BRIDGE BETWEEN TWO LEADERS
NEVER DO BAD POLITICS TO DESTROY EACH OTHER.
BE BRIDGE BETWEEN TO RIVERS,
NEVER DESTROY BRIDGE FOR YOUR CRUEL INTENTIONS.
BE BRIDGE BETWEEN MAN AND WOMEN,
NEVER COMPETE TO OVERTAKE EACH OTHER,
BE BRIDGE BETWEEN GOOD AND BAD,
NEVER BE FRIENDS OF ADULTERY.**

** WHERE OUR LOVE IS LOST .
WHERE WE ARE LOST,
WHERE IS HUMANITY LOST,
WHERE WE ARE GOING,
WHERE IS WORLD LOST THEIR MINDS,
WHERE IS YOUTH , YOUNGSTER LOST,
WHERE OUR MINISTER LOST THEIR INNOCENCE,
WHERE IS TRUTH LOST FROM THE WORLD,
WHERE WE ARE GAMBLING OUR EMOTIONS,
WHERE ALL GLACIERS LOST THEIR CHARM,
WHERE IS BEAUTY IS LOST FROM WOMEN,
WHERE IS CALMNESS AND KINDNESS LOST.**
