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!!
satan laughs
satan laughs
In the face
Of a church asleep
As the world burns
Around it
So Rise Up
Get on your feet
Jesus demands to
See it
Evil out of control
Searches
Openly strolls
In our homes
Our children's schools
So do not let it win
Today we must overrule
Its darkened evil
As we stand to defend
Our Lord's voice
So wake up dear church
Join the battle
For the most innocent lives
On this face of this earth
As Jesus returns to
Re-create, to completely re-birth
His perfected new kingdom!
For All Believers
If you say you believe
In that sacrificed Savior
Guardian over our behavior
Then never speak His Name
In public
Will you not be subject
To a more severe form
of God's Judgement?
I believe we will
A Great Commission
Instructed each believer
To instill
In all of a lost world
God's instructions
Guides to inclusion
Or exclusion
From His Eternal Paradise
We will be like that watchman
On the wall
Hearing in our hearts God's call
Yet not warning others of the dangers
Not doing the watchman's job
Failing will bring to us both a great cost
To all will be the extreme loss
Of an eternal foreverness
In God's Loving Presence
As the prophet Ezekiel wrote
'Their blood will be on our heads'
Ezekiel 33: 6, 8 But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet to warn the people and the sword comes and takes someone’s life, that person’s life will be taken because of their sin, but I will hold the watchman accountable for their blood. …….8 you do not speak out to dissuade them from their ways, that wicked person will die for their sin, and I will hold you accountable for their blood.
For Too Long
For too long God’s family
His church
Has sat silent
On too many subjects
Is this not a form of neglect?
All those eyes every day
You will look into
Faces you will peruse
Each and every one
Is the face of a someone
Ending up
In one of only two places
Do we not care
As we return their stares
If it’s an eternal Paradise
Or a hell brought about
Within some demon’s sick device
We are meant to be
His hands, his feet
So get out there
Make known his fame
Carry his name
And help save Christ’s world
This glowing, rotating
Large green pearl
So all may see his light
And a Holy Spirit’s flame re-ignite!
Do Not Continue
Do not continue to lie
And give only half-truths
To me,
Pastor of today
You are supposed to be
God’s wisdom-filled sage
Do not continue to say
I may live as I please
Lusting after all the things
I only can touch & see
Even with all your degrees,
You should be on your knees
Leading the way
To a better day
Do not let, allow
The evil one to win
Lead us away from all
This world’s increasing sin
Another voice is screaming
More loudly every day
Telling me you’re
Leading the wrong way!
Stand up!
Be God’s man
Lead this country, our land
The way it’s supposed to go
His Son you MUST SHOW
If salvation will come
Before it’s too late
& many will be left knocking,
crying outside forever
The glory of God’s heavenly gates
