Overcome one day with meeting with Jesus in His word, I wrote this poem. We are not led by emotions, that’s emotionalism. See link below for more on that.
But we are emotional people. We feel. When we respond to what we have learned about Jesus from His word, when we are awed by His majesty, humbled by His power, overcome with lowliness in love for His heights, we’re having an emotional response and it’s OK.

What do you think about emotional sensationalism in the modern church?
Poem by EPrata
You, my Lord, are on your throne
Sovereignly ordaining everything
The leaf that falls
The sparrow that flies
The heart that beats
The heart that fails.
Your creation made
To shouts of joy from angels,
The elder who falls asleep,
Carried to your throne by ministering spirits,
The wind does not blow without Your will and direction,
The sea dare not cross its boundary.
The rooster does not crow three times
Without your knowledge.
Your people, slumbering
Waken to new life
In You–
The King
