In the Above

In The Above

In the above, those celestial skies
Surely, God must shake His head & sigh
‘Will they never learn’?
He watches as we all despise
His love’s most generous guidelines
But still I suppose
As only He most assuredly knows
& so forward & on He goes
Still trying our souls to win
Keep us from that damning sin
Of our total & defiant rebellion

But, 
Lucky for us,
Our God is not a quitter
We are the ones 
Who turn our backs & run
From
His wonderful perfect grace
Reflected in Beauty’s Love on His Face

So,
Be different from the rest
Do not put God to the test
Stay, live to enjoy
Those Eternal Pleasures in store
Between Infinity’s Gates they await!

Scenes

What does it really mean
All of these different scenes
From so many different peoples
Carrying the weight of our faults
Why does not the world just topple
At times they seem so unstoppable
These, our chaotic insanities

For each of us the final rest
Comes forth only through our death
So I sigh
Look upward
Try to turn from all the lies

Please do not let yourself be deceived
Each & every soul will receive
What for themselves they chose,
In their life’s walk & daily plans
Whether to accept or reject
               CHRIST,
Our God’s Living Son of Man!

Fiery Fingers!

Fiery Fingers

May fiery fingers touch
For a rebirth of Your church
Which only water & Your Spirit
Can re-ignite!

Renew a radical passion
For the Living Christ
His glorious power & might
Beheld in a scalding light
Of newness & true life!

Live within the warmth, affection
Of Spirit, Father & a Holy Son
As found only in that Blessed Trinity
Give to all who sincerely struggle to look
A Wise clarity’s power to truly see!

A Rending

The Rending

To rend or rent is
To be torn apart with violence
& thus will the skies overhead
In a Holy Book is said
Be rent apart 
This for us will be
Our wonderful new start

Earth, sky, heavens
Rent open will all be
As we watch to see
A Living God
Return to claim
In His Gracious Name
And Holy Fame
His creation in totality

Hordes of mighty angels 
Will descend
Coming evil’s reign to end
Overwhelming the earth
As Christ in His Power asserts
His Kingship, Ownership
Of a Recreated
Restored, New World

Truly Alive!

Truly Alive

Spirits all for Now
Bound, so tightly, held,
Within the cage of
this fleshly shell

Someday to be released
Will we be angel or the beast?
Endure darkness’ chains
Or a heavenly feast?
Will we choose
To gain better or lose?

So take the gift of your
Now Alive
& with all of your strength,
Fiercely struggle, intensely try
Stretch for those heavenly skies
& reach for the more,
The better in the privilege
It is to be Truly Alive!
