Poems by Peter Blackburn

Amazing God "Amazing God - amazing grace that bore my load"

A White Cross "Driving carefree down the highway I saw it - a white cross"

Believing Thomas! "He only said, I too must see the Lord"

Christ Calling "He's innocent! I wash my hands!"

Comfort and Joy "At Christmas time the carolers sing"

Divine Love "On earth the Son of God spent much time with the Father"

Easter Glory! "Darkness shrouds the dying Saviour"

Easter Meditation "Jesus Christ, Word of God made flesh"

Fragrance "A fragrant act of love permeates the air"

Gethsemane "He came to do the Father's will"

Golgotha "By a bus station in Jerusalem there stands a hill"

Have Mercy! "Dear Friend, I sensed the stabbing pain of the betrayer's kiss"

He is Risen! "In love he came to rescue a world gone wrong"

His Life for You "Take in the body and the blood"

Jesus or Barabbas? "Barabbas, they cried, we want Barabbas!"

Looking to Jesus "Look to Jesus - living in the world of people"

My Lord and my God! "I cannot see the nail-prints in his hands"

Not Forsaken! "Where are you, God? I need you now!"

Simon of Cyrene "Long and tedious was the road that brought me to Jerusalem"

So Great a Love "He loved them, taught them, fed them, healed them"

Surely not, Lord! "Follow, follow, follow Jesus - all the way I'll follow him!"

Tell out the News! "From beyond human history he came"

The Open Door "As Jesus died his friends were sad"

The Rooster Crowed "whoever thought the crowing of a bird would bring such pain?"

The Rooster Crows "It happens in the faintest morning light"

The Tomb is Empty! “They found the tomb 2000 years ago”

Those Hands of Love "His feet trod the dusty streets and roads"

Three Crosses "Three crosses stood in silhouette against the sky"

What's the Truth? "Pilate trained to worm the truth from accusers and accused"

Your Will, Father! "So early in human life we learn to use our will"
