Burnt


Burnt

You've burnt me
With your fire, God
Your nevers
Never will I leave you
Never will I forsake you
And
Greatest among Your truths
Never do You change

Reaching fiery fingers
Into my almost empty shell
Feeling of little worth to tell
You energized my heart
At first,
Only a smallest flame
To start

That almost obliterated light
My innermost soul
Satan's long fingers so dark & cold
Fought to destroy
Even from my very first days
Those days of long ago

But your Spirit's fiery love
Brought a powerful new light
On wings of your peace-filled dove
Carrying a power eternal
Also to one so frail, Your might

And as I stand today filled
Trying to carry your beauty's will
That satan will be defeated
As Your love within our hearts
We're keeping
All the pains, the sorrows,
All the weepings
Your Spirit's fire at last will thrust
Deep into hell’s darkness
Blissfully, Eternally away from us!!!

The Throne Room


The Throne Room

You hold the planets
Into place
The heartbeats of every nation
Living at your feet
Working calmly, deliberately
All while seated upon
One royal seat
Eternal, perfect love's
Royal throne room

700, 800, 900 feet tall angels
Dance in ecstasy
Not out of duty
But because
They're overwhelmed
From the sight of
Your power, might
Your glory's beauty

I sigh
Someday,
If I stay loyally in love
Obedient
I too
Will be allowed
To dance
Totally entranced
As angels' wings
Brush by my face
Of Eternity's Purest Joy
Will I taste
Just to watch You smile!!

Praise You, Lord God Jesus!
Praise You!

The Vow



The Vow(to Christ)

Waters of baptism
Over my head
Covers my face
Leaving no room
Not even one trace
Of darkness

Raised from a watery grave
Pulled up, Resurrected
Into Your light
Your new life
Given new sight
To see as You do

For this water
Was my vow
My oath, my covenant
To follow, love,
Be loyal to you
No matter the pain
No matter the shame
A world might choose
To inflict

One Man!


One Man

One Man
Everything
Hinges, rotates
Around
One Man
Air, earth,
Rock, water
Sand
Microbe, flea
Dolphin, elephant
Every atom,
Every molecule
Of every element

Nothing escapes
His attention
From His notice
There is no abstention!
But
Who would want that?
In His Presence is
Love joy, peace,
Goodness, kindness
He hopes eternally
Toward this His world
More and more would
Progress!!

As Christ holds out
Nail-scarred hands
Toward His pain-free
Glory Land
Won't you join in
Bring others with you
Come live in infinity with
God's only Son of Man!!!
