The words of the Bible explains it best,
The life of Christ and His amazing Grace.
Brought to us my a higher man,
Gift from Glory, and high in Praise.
He made the heavens and earth,
In just seven days.
Floods came crashing through,
He helped a man in countless ways.
An ark, whom would of thought,
To carry all in twos, for so many days.
A man possessed, He turned the evil out,
" Be gone demons, I rebuke you now, " He says.
Out of the man into the pigs,
Out into the sea, drowning, the demons died that day.
Many of those have been healed and saved,
Not by no other, just His Grace.
Hands lifted, we give to Him,
All of the Honor, all of the Praise.
His love as He walked these lands,
Saving hearts, healing, with His gentle ways.
Promising us eternal life, if we take His path,
Its only 10 commandments, to help us on our way.
He knows we will falter, and for this HE sets us free,
Through the blood of His son, that day at Calvary.
SO how much does He love us, and how much Grace He gives,
All depends on you, and how you lived today.
He can move the mountains that, block your way of life,
He can move the waters that, that your drowning in today.
Turn your life to Him, on a bended knee,
Ask Him for forgiveness, at the end of every day.
You will too see, what He has in store,
That He will wrap you in His arms, and show you, His amazing Grace.
Author notes
Prais eYour name Sweet Father for all you have given, In just three days after death, your Son had risen. Our pain and suffering, are sins too, Now cleansed away, by what your Son had gone through. You have given so much indeed, in so many ways,
I will forever walk with you , th remainder of my days.
Bless you all.

A good poem.
However, I noticed some errors which tend to distract the reader. In line 1 the subject of the sentence is plural, "words", so the verb should be "explain", not "explains". In line 3 "my" should be "by". "A ark, whom" should be "An ark, who". "Not by no other" is a double negative. Your poetic license allows you to break the usual rules of grammar, but perhaps this is not the best place to do so; your poem has a serious tone. Also, "Turn you life" should be "Turn your life".
I hope you are not annoyed by these suggestions; I am trying to be helpful. -
Yes dear friend He did a wonderful job. Of course I couldnt write everything i knew so had to point out just a few for if i did explain them all , it would be miles and miles long. And nevr end for He is always working His hands and showing His amazing Grace. I appreciate you and your kind words. Blessings to you dear friend.

i liked this, even though i'm not religious at all.
a few corrections though:
5th stanza, first like "A ark" should be "An ark".
6th stanza, second line, the period after "now" should be a comma, because it's ending the quotations and saying who spoke the words.
11th stanza, second line "Its" should be "It's" with an apostrophe.
second last stanza, first line "you" should be "your"
other than that, i liked the ideas in this. it's very well written, and just a few errors in spelling/grammar. amazing job. good luck in the contest, and keep it up! <3
