The Voice
We scurry
We hurry
Caught up in distractions
We forget the impaction
Of ignoring
Ignoring what you say?
The only face
That dispenses grace
Every heartbeat every day
For the world
That's simply their way
But
For a Christian?
It means we've failed
To stop & listen
To the only One
In the position
To stop the insanity
Darkness surrounds us
To us Christ entrusts
His truths, His light
To dispense
To a world never meant
To be this lost
When we His church
Get so caught up
In the world's culture
We forget to nurture
HIM IN US
Then by our silence
And this our choice
Christ has no voice
& only doom awaits!
Faith
My faith is all I have
To carry me
To the other side
Before I leave
Before I die
Large, monstrous
That great gift
Given so we may sift
Thru all life’s pains
Knowing, at times,
It will cause major rifts
Between us
But even God Himself said
As He walked, talked
And eventually bled
I come not to bring peace
But a sword
A man’s enemies
Will be his own family
So do not be discouraged
If in your own life
These words come true
For I have seen & known
Never will He leave you
Never will He forsake you
God forever His promises will keep
Even as you slumber
Even as you sleep!
Listen
Even above the clouds
Mere wisps of white over
The head
Sounds arise,
In low bass tones
In tenor notes so high
Music is constantly
Sung and led
Take the time to
Listen
Notes spiraling
Circling
In, among celestial skies
Let your spirits fly
Let them to their highest
rise
Above this dusty earth
Walk through heaven’s
Gates
Again,
LISTEN
Angelic voices beckon
As their voices
Any earthly heart
May awaken
To join in their praise also
Without restraint
Saints & angels dance
From their first glance
At their Creator’s
Gleaming face
Removing every trace
Of any darkness
Cymbals clash
Out of heavenly instruments
Fairest notes constantly pass
To praise, to worship
On each tongue’s tip
His Name will forever last
So take time to listen
This effort you will not regret
At each note as it glistens
Shining, living
It reaches out to you to get
To encourage you
To also join in,
And God’s heavenly
Rewards you too may praise
And for all infinity win!
At Night
At night
I dream of your face
Hardly daring to believe
You would give me
This taste
Of You
Your Beauty
Overwhelming Power
Completed Purity
Such intimacy with one
Such as You
More than I, mere man,
Can ever comprehend
I pray never will it end
Praise You, Lord God,
Praise You
In golden splendor
You arrive
Settling somewhere above,
Between,
All my why’s
To Be
As You Will Be
So,
I tremble on my knees
Gratitude
Contained in tears, it falls
Again,
I tremble at your call,
But I dare not
Do not wish to resist
For this I live & breathe
Waiting, I cannot fully
Conceive
This future hope
Of your Magnificent Eternity!!
Transported –To Wait
Trembling,
In this place I wait
Promised, hoping,
Told of a better fate
Than any of the years,
Or days,
Down here
Still I am determined
To wait
This level
Is heavy
Weighed down
By much
Painful at times
To the touch
It has been promised
Though if I continue
To look up
Much better awaits
A lighter level
Of existence
But for all my life here
I will have to stay near
In order to receive
A Spirit’s assistance
Which, of course,
Depends solely upon
My acceptance
Light everywhere
Will we receive
Those who refuse to
Give up
Remaining in belief
Purity, glory,
Living righteousness abounds
As we partake in the sounds
Of the angels’ dancing praise!

A Daughter, A Son
We are his daughters, his sons
If your Father were under attack
Would you just turn tail
And run?
In my heart, I hope not
When they deny His Name
They abuse His Spirit
Of
Perfect Love, Joy, Peace
Patience, Goodness, Kindness
To name a few
But it is up to all of us
To me and you
An evil, destructive satan
Wants to destroy all of us
And watching the world today
He does it without much effort
Or a fuss
God’s disciples we are meant
To be
So our Father’s love & forgiveness
Every eternal soul here may see
It truly is a battle for our
Hearts & minds
So step up,
Join the front lines
Even pain-filled at times
As it might be
Because,
Without us in the war
The enemy has already won!
