What Else?
What else is there?
Nothing rings true
Where upon this planet
For this
Lies the cure?
Everything
Rings of the temporary
Over it
Literally stumbles
I know this sounds contrary
A world’s song
Completely different
I know we all long
To believe it
But its useless voice
We must bury it
Wars will come and end
Governments rise & fall
Even death our bodies
Will be allowed to rend
So, listen to the voice
Of your God/Christ
Because there’s really
Nothing, no one else
As He comes back
And we watch
As all the old away
Does melt!
Beginnings
Flitting & fluttering
Your ideas You bring
Through my heart
They race,
Quite literally
Out loud they sing
Rushing, gushing
Speaking your name
Always is it the same
Of a true wisdom’s King
Their voices calling,
In praises loudly ring
So, dearest God
Once again
Upon your earth
Will you trod
Returning most assuredly
Your life’s bright purity
To our darkened skies
As we look upward
With our heartfelt sighs
Come Lord Jesus, Come!
Our God’s One
& Only True Son
Name us,
Claim us,
For in this today’s now,
Our eternal journey
Has already begun!!
Pentecostal Fire
Disciples, huddled
In an upper room
Shaking in their boots
Trying to dispel the gloom
Of your death
Feeling only fear’s failure was left
Until,
A Pentecostal fire
Blazed across their heads
By tongues of living fire
Were they to be led
To stop the shaking, quaking
& rise up
Boldly speak
Those first words of hope
To preach
And loudly proclaim
In many tongues
The life, the power
Of God’s only RISEN SON!
Warning, Warning!
Warning, warning
Read all about it
Warning, warning
Voices raise to shout it
The great reckoning
Is coming
For us,
Out
the time is running
Soon will we all
Peoples be allowed
God’s face & presence
No longer will be disavowed
All to be judged
In His great presence
Investigating each life’s essence
In His Book it is assured
No one left not adjured
To be brought before His throne!!
Revelation 20:11-13 Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. The earth and the heavens fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what they had done.
Before
Before all time and space
There was a glorious face
Full of only grace
Love for all He surveyed
Having always the last say
Over everything
But,
His goodness, beauty
So overwhelming
So always flowing
Over and upward welling
He wished to share it
With others
So the Three got together
Made planets spin
Stars shine
But decided they had rather
Make some someones
A planetary home was made
The darkest of night
Became a day
Animals, all creatures
Brought into His sight
Then
His allowed His man to stand upright
He felt such joy
In this glorious child
He had truly let
His imagination run wild
Crowned us at last
With one glorious smile!
Shout for joy
All the earth
At the glory
Of this first birth
But never fear,
He will remove
For a second time all tears
As once again,
The battle against
Darkness He will win
Return us,
Back home
If we choose
Remember God will
Never ever lose!!
Love’s Sword
Love’s sword flashes left
& right
Truly a most intimidating sight
In some hearts causes joy
In others only strikes pure terror
But,
When it’s through
For each & the every of us,
The me and you
Will it shine so crystal clear
Those who have loved and
Held His Christ so very dear!
