Turning, Turning Our whole planet Always turning Night to day Day to night Light to dark Darkness to light Always on the move
Even this our very selves As on this moving world Constantly do we dwell Each an eternal spirit Moving, turning through Each day To the left or To the right Toward the dark or To the light
Turning to God’s perfect love To fill your spirit from above Or To the darkened concept Of the narcissistic self One leads to destructive death The other to an incomprehensible Wealth These two sides to life We seem to have been dealt
But the choice is yours Turning to one side or The other To destroy or to lift up Your sisters, your brothers So that as through our lives We’re turning along Only to one of these May you ultimately belong
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!!!
Caught up in you Not just watching Or carried by your side But caught up Inside of you Longingly I sigh Please do not pass Me by In the moment Of that breath I know the best Of life waiting for me yet Is to be caught up Into the richest, deepest crevices within Your heart's depths!
A line has been drawn On this earth in the sand By an Almighty, Holy Hand Choose on which side You wish to stand You must In this, You have no choice
For of your life This is the reality And God Jesus Holds all the keys After all, He does give free will He allows you to instill Or choose With which side Yourself you wish to fill
On one side, A broken world's chaos So lost Or on the other A beauty so RICH Fit only for a king Who for your sake Was willing to Pay the heavy cost
So, spend your time In a way most wise One side renders for you Only a dark demise Or step over TO THE OTHER SIDE Offering Infinity's Bright Lights To live, explore forever among God's Heavenly Heights!!
Imagine. . . This large open plain A massive battlefield Where today in another war Many demons yet might I Still be forced to kill
Thick helmet on my head Chain metal on my chest Finally I step forward Serving my Master’s undying quest To bring home the lost
A great dark enemy’s army Gathers in this earthly field Hoping to devour And my most precious faith Longing to at last kill
But we have a Living, Risen KING! Upon our dusty clay Did He with human feet Sleep, cry and trod This our Holy, Beautiful, ALMIGHTY GOD!
So take heart The battle is not over Onward it still rages As written within A Holy Book’s eternal pages And for us the best of news? God wins, Christ wins His Spirit all evil will subdue And if you so choose Saving us, I, we and you!!
