The Answer To be with You Holy God Inseparable Completely joined You living in me Or Perfectly together, My daily existence Walking inside of You! But how can that happen How can that truly be? Perhaps only in eternity The answer to that question will I at last be able to see!
Praise Praise even harder As satan squeezes tighter For you know Jesus is a fighter Never giving up satan has no knockout punch Delivering in just one tremendous blow Jesus raised a bloodied fist From that wooden cross Only one wham then a bam Christ just sighed then He died Finally relaxed Had finished His task & just went out to lunch!!!
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!!!
Follow Many slogans, jargon Thrown out, Fly around our heads Words spoken That get said By poorly educated sources Follow your dreams Follow your own heart I wish for a start These words would Come to light Follow your God, Jesus Christ Oh, Containing such might! What a different world Would we see If from a bended knee We took a different perspective As a group collective Would be more effective If we ceased to worship The self So follow the only truly One, Holy Father, Spirit Son Who can give more than We are able to imagine Perfect love, joy, peace If we began to follow Him With a deep radical passion I tremble with exhilaration At the thought, what could happen! A different, better world if We followed His heart Rather than merely following Our own Better life for all would Most certainly to be shown As closer & closer to Him We have grown & deeper into our hearts His Divine Light has been sown!!
To Gain a Loss! Once in a first century A people lived Under much evil treachery Not willing to commit Any libel or perjury They gave their all To a suffering Savior To listen to His voice's tender call ‘Come to me all you who are weary And I will give you rest’ But the question is are you willing To withstand a broken world’s tests To carry His name, Out loud His sovereignty To acclaim Life is not about pleasure alone But about a God who loves From above on a golden throne Willing to sacrifice everything So all of us into His Paradise He could finally at last bring So do as those heroes of the past (today we would surely stand aghast) They were willing to lose all They obeyed, listened, answered Christ’s call Losing jobs, homes, even their own blood To wear the name proudly of ‘Christian’!
Plain & Simple Plain & simple Words on a page Without faith in That red blood of Christ All condemned to a darkened hell No great mystery This is the truth For any to understand, to tell From a book of truth God warns At times Even at us storms Using examples from The world’s past Trying to convince us Before like a stone We could be thrown Into that dark hole Greater forces Gather gentlest voices Trying to win, cajole Our Savior, Christ, God, our Creator/Father Holy Spirit urging From words in His sacred scroll Loving, to also console For His greatest goal Is to win back each soul Intact, in whole Back into His Loving Arms!
