Victory Shout
Come, Lord Jesus, Come
Heaven’s Reigning,
Ruling Son!
Give me no more
Mournful chants
Give me instead
Your Victory Shout
satan’s hell thought it had won
As it watched the
Darkening of the sun
On a day it had plotted
To crucify God’s Son
With itself was so besotted
Sounded its own victory shout
But,
You took one deep breath
Your glory returned
A dead, fleshly body
Once again moved
A stone was rolled
The grave emptied
As you stepped back out
Into the light of day
Your hands raised and gave
Your Victory’s Shout!
Yes, Lord Jesus, Yes
Praise you Lord Jesus
Praise You!!
Golden Rod
Wicked, wicked
Golden Rod
Without hardly even one single nod
Your pollen’s unceasing furies
Are unleashed
With only one breath
My eyes begin to weep,
Of course, also the drippy nose
I feel I sneeze
From my head to my toes
So, even though I am enchanted
By your deceitful beauty's glances
Within the earth so deeply planted
Too close I dare not ever linger
As you are for me the bringer
Of each breath’s struggle
And cause me to curse all the troubles
your fall beauties scatter broadly in the air!
Revolving
Life is revolving
Circumstances Shifting,
Always evolving
Which is okay
God did not mean for
Us to stay
Forever static
But what are we
To become?
Is there an answer
To that as I run
My life’s race?
Just around what does
My life revolve?
All existence
Revolves around
God the Son,
God the Father
God the Holy Spirit
Holding all of life
Every living thing
In their hands
Stars spin,
Lives end & begin
Planets die off
All in tune to
A universal melody
An eternal song
Chiming out the purity
Infinity’s bright light
In God’s love
So, join in the dance
Let Him also entrance
Your heart
Join the mighty crowds
That have been endowed
With His Grace, Mercy
Forgiveness
Let your life revolve
Around His!
On The Back Burner
Life can feel like a hot kitchen
All the stove’s burners going
At full blast
Oh, how long must this heat
& all the turmoil last?
Juggling so many pots
At any or every cost,
Don’t let any boil over
Or all may be lost!
So we attend to what appears
To be the most important
God understands
We have demands
That every day we must meet
All those physical needs
But do not place Him
On that back burner
To avoid meeting with Him
Only He can promise success,
Control over the other
Pots you might come to win
Put God first
And other things will
Come to fall in line
With due diligence & time
Life can be sweet
But only if you keep
Only GOD
On that front burner!

Do Not Fret, Do Not Worry
There is no need to worry
God is still upon His throne
Surrounded by His endless glory
Resolved still to bring us home
Despite satan’s same sad,
Old & darkened story
Full of lies, murder, deceit
satan loses
For in the end,
God always wins
There is no way
To stop Him
So do not try
It will only leave your heart
With a very heavy sigh
Of loss
satan knows getting closer
Is his eternity of defeat
That is why his cruel fury
Even greater has he unleashed
Upon our sad & lonely world
But if today you chose
This Living, Christ
Then not one single day of
Your tomorrows will you lose
In God’s Glories-filled Paradise
By His Hands given endless Joys
In the infinity of His Blisses
To receive His endless kisses!!
Noise, noise to
To fill the ears
With the eyes as well
Does it interfere
On screens everywhere
Floats through the air
With the power to heal
Or our souls to tear
Our world in chaos
Forever in pain
In such a state
Of blindness
Can there be any gain
For deepest peace
Can we grasp onto joy
Or will we driven be
Over a desperate world to
Constantly weep?
There is a noise for
All to seek
That tries to help
You truly reap
That deep inner knowledge
Or what our lives should be
But this can only be found
In quiet & on our knees
Comes in response to
God’s inner urgings
That still, smallest voice
May we respond always
& most gratefully rejoice!
