From


From

From the white light 
Above my head
To the brown ground
Beneath my feet
From every breath 
While I'm awake
To every heartbeat
While I sleep
You are my everything

Come, Lord Jesus,
COME

Millenia come and millenia go
Still time after time
You continue to show
Your incomprehensible
Love, goodness, joy
Your peace
Even with outstretched 
Arms 
For us You continue to reach
In order to forgive

A completely new life to give
But it hangs in the balance
From us it will require the talent
Of making the right choice
On His bloodied cross
After He raised His Voice
           It is finished!
For all eternity
Our sins had they been punished

Still,
We must decide, choose
For ourselves
How do we really wish to dwell?
With someone so beautiful 
Our words cannot express
Or 
An Infinity without God's love forever
This is every man's greatest
and lifelong test!

The Ticket

The Ticket

Jesus Christ
Into heaven
Is
OUR TICKET
With
HIS BLOOD
He came to
STOP IT
that satan's deceit!

So won't you
GET OUT
Even if it
Takes a
SMALL SHOUT
In joy
To grab people's attention
So they can
Win it
THAT HOLY TICKET
Into God's Eternal Paradise!!

Hand to Hand

Hand to Hand

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!!

The Reason!

The Reason

A political chaos,
A mess,
Rages outside our doors
Seeming louder, louder
More and more

But is it the real issue
Really the Problem?
Or is there something
Penetrating deeper
into each home
Down into the 
Marrow of our bones?

Chaos, pain
The symptoms
Of a general sickness
Not just in this country
Worldwide a plague is this
Screaming, howling,
An everyday test

We sense the underlying
Abnormalness, 
In our hearts a deviation
From a clearest sanity
Could it be from our hands
The faults, all our own creation?

Most, or should I say all
Ancient civilizations
Felt an undergirding need
In the heart an inner call
For something outside the self
Dare I call it a god?
Is this the hand we seem
To have been dealt?

The answer is missing
Unless we pay close attention
Let's stop all the searching
Listen to our own urgings
To words inspired by a Holy Spirit
Meant in our minds to clear it
This worldwide, mass confusion
Take it out of the hidden darkness
Away from secretive collusion
This answer to the stress
All our world's lamenting strife
Look to our King, our Lord
OUR LOVING JESUS CHRIST!!

Drawn

Drawn

Irresistibly drawn
To this light
Stronger and stronger
To this urge I fear
I no longer
Feel a stranger

Increasing almost 
Every day
Sometimes in 
More than one way
Like a moth to the flame
Hearing You speak my name
I beat my frail wings
Against the thin veil
Of this flesh
Separating for now
You and I
Ah at times can
Life be quite the test!

Yet today I can just be still
At the command of my God's will
And enter into His desired rest
Which at times I must confess
For me is hardly ever easy
So for now
I will warm my wings
As I listen heaven still sings
Of the warmth, glory in the light
Cascading from Your 
Wondrous love & might!
