  In the midst of life we are all in death. By the grace of God are we restored.

  I'm so impressed with your 'Be Ye Lifted Up!' poem, it's deeply moving and thought-provoking! It's clear that you put a lot of thought and care into your writing, and the end result is a powerful affirmation of faith and divine grace. The tenderness of divine compassion and mercy as described leaves a lasting impact on the reader.
  
  On your structure, the acrostic approach taken is creative and forms a coherent discussion with the theme of the poem. Your use of language is provocative, emotionally stirring, and helps anyone who reads this poem really understand the depth of your feelings.
  
  In terms of potential improvements, while your poem is indeed powerful, it could use a bit more expression or imagery. This will help to lead the reader through a defined journey. Try using metaphors, similes, and other forms of vivid imagery to give your words more life and potential for connection with your audience. The way you represented divine grace is very effective, however, creating a more personal, intimate and relatable interaction with the divine would further enhance your poem’s impact.
  
  Also, while keeping the rhythm and flow of the poem, make sure the poem does not lose its rhyming scheme and structure. This will create a more melodious and captivating read. It would also be interesting to see you play around with different poetic devices, like alliteration and assonance.
  
  Keep on writing! I'm excited to see how your words will continue to inspire, evoke, and provoke. more »
