The First Christ must come first Everything else a poor second As you listen to His voice So sweetly trill & beckon Return to me I will return to you A new day will break forth Ensue! A sun unlike any other Will roll & rise A shining, sparkling New planet To be beheld with widened eyes To live in a new universe These second-hand words I now rehearse Taken from the writings Of an ancient Holy Book I am allowed to delight in reciting!
So Forget! A world barges in Rude & loud, using force Seeking its own way To get me off my course From you, Lord Christ So, On I must struggle To stay away From seeking its Loud, belligerent way & listen to your gentle voice instead So, F O R G E T Your large house Your sleek, ramblings cars Persistent pleasure seeking In Him only Am I believing! Toward His cross Am I retreating! Toward a better life & a Living Son’s Paradise!!!
The Broken Restored My soul was broken In pieces shattered Only You could collect The pieces From where They were scattered Into the darkness Your fingers reached & found them I stand restored, Whole, once again A new creation Is for what you wish But only You, Dear Savior That truth can seal With Your Holy Kiss!

In The Above In the above, those celestial skies Surely, God must shake His head & sigh ‘Will they never learn’? He watches as we all despise His love’s most generous guidelines But still I suppose As only He most assuredly knows & so forward & on He goes Still trying our souls to win Keep us from that damning sin Of our total & defiant rebellion But, Lucky for us, Our God is not a quitter We are the ones Who turn our backs & run From His wonderful perfect grace Reflected in Beauty’s Love on His Face So, Be different from the rest Do not put God to the test Stay, live to enjoy Those Eternal Pleasures in store Between Infinity’s Gates they await!
Scenes
What does it really mean
All of these different scenes
From so many different peoples
Carrying the weight of our faults
Why does not the world just topple
At times they seem so unstoppable
These, our chaotic insanities
For each of us the final rest
Comes forth only through our death
So I sigh
Look upward
Try to turn from all the lies
Please do not let yourself be deceived
Each & every soul will receive
What for themselves they chose,
In their life’s walk & daily plans
Whether to accept or reject
CHRIST,
Our God’s Living Son of Man!

The Rending To rend or rent is To be torn apart with violence & thus will the skies overhead In a Holy Book is said Be rent apart This for us will be Our wonderful new start Earth, sky, heavens Rent open will all be As we watch to see A Living God Return to claim In His Gracious Name And Holy Fame His creation in totality Hordes of mighty angels Will descend Coming evil’s reign to end Overwhelming the earth As Christ in His Power asserts His Kingship, Ownership Of a Recreated Restored, New World
