My slate wiped Clean Of everything I Have done selfishly Everything mean And By what you say? Christ's Holy, Pure Blood
On an ancient hill called Calvary Put forth for Every living, breathing Creature to see The God-man hung From spikes in hands And feet His love-filled Blood Staining the ground
So with only from His lips a few Sounds His Pure, Holy Blood Did encircle, surround His earth For all eternity, All time Certainly not yours And never mine
It was only Him Our King, Lord, Creator Savior Joined with the Holy Father That made the plan Only His Blood Strong, pure, clean Enough To save corrupted Man
So next time you're Feeling grateful Get down on your knees Thank Christ for that Day most fateful For there was no other Blood That could have done The job Rescued us from our Blackened sin And Brought us back home To our generously forgiving GOD!
I feel I need more clarity
Today indeed a rarity
In a broken world of chaos
Into which everyday are tossed
Wild words of confusion
Oh, my poor brain!
Too many harsh contusions!
Perhaps if I read the book again
Over & over, from end to end
Maybe these dark clouds
My lack of understanding
It's sweetest words would surely rend
I hope this will bring you closer
My dearest Savior
And I will try to return the favor
To go out
And with a happy shout
Inform the others
Make new sisters, brothers
Before it's too late
Because on some as yet
Unknown date
At our world’s end
Sealed will be everyone’s fate
As into His eternity
All of us will God send
Me, Why?
Someone who rides
Among the stars
On wings of the wind
Who has the power to transcend
Both time and space
From out whose face
Energy, heat, light, His Glory
Gush, pour out from
Are so easily traced
This beautiful Someone
From His golden throne
This Perfectly Holy Son
Wants to love us
Plural of the you and me
Sometimes as I sigh
I ask the question, WHY?
I look at our past
Track record
A history full of so
Many great transgressions
Committed most openly
With such small amounts
of discretion
Rebellion written on our skin
All done just to get our own way,
Some selfish lust to win
Destroying life, this has
To be the truest form of sin
But Christ chose to love
Us anyway
Never stops
Morning, night of every day
Praise God for that!
For He cannot go against
His own nature
And so
In an amazing act of pure
Salvation
Left His Glory's throne
His walks among the stars
To die for His created man
And now on His own hands
Still bears the ugliest of scars
Distracted
I turn my head
from side to side
Distracted
I sigh
There must be a better
Reason
Than this
For which I exist
Perhaps I should
Just desist
From all these
Distractions
To buy, buy
Consume, consume
I think I just want
To leave this room
Too many distractions
All these man-made
Contraptions
Most only man-made junk
They buzz, they whirl,
They even clunk
I think I am at last sunk
From the pile, my stash
Boy, on it,
I've lost a pile of cash
Until a still, small voice
Whispers into my inner ear
I'm just right here
Do not fear
For your life
I can give a better purpose
From this chaotic
3 ring circus
I created you to share
In me
My great beauty
My love
From heaven's gates
Is falling
A higher calling
Meant for everyone
In my great name
Must you follow
Let go of those deceptions
Distractions so hollow
Let me be your only God
As upon this earth
Will you so briefly trod
Until I call you back to myself
So listen to that quiet voice
It comes from only me
Still trying to get you to see
You were created to be
Forever with me
The one true lover
Of your soul
For that was my truest goal
To share myself with you
In my Eternity's Paradise!!
We Say
I say this
You say that
Words flying thru the air
Tossed into that great hat
Of a world's opinions
Changing almost by the hour
Quickly coming in increasing showers
From the human ever restless heart
At an ancient beginning, our start
No end in sight to this
Our dark, yet most refin-ed art
In opposition to more elevated words
Trying strongly man's destiny to turn
Spun from heaven's celestial higher calling
Still we stumble, tumble over our mispronuciations to continue falling
Over our own words
We ruin ourselves our lives
With crude, more crass words every day
When will we ever learn the
Value in those words
our only God has such to say?
God's words can lift us higher
Ignite in us once more a Spirit's fire
Able to lift out of a dark murk & mire
Of our own creating
We should listen
To what God has to say
With His shining verbal pearls
Enhancing all our days
Speaking crystal shards of truth
To deny satan's stabbing wounds
As in eternity an ancient enemy's darkness
God forever will at last exclude!!!
