Gathering, A great darkness A world clothed in chaos Spinning to regress Going backwards Because It does spurn A Savior's love & suffering
A once bright nation Founded upon Its Christ's sacrifice Now once, twice, Perhaps even thrice Rejects His name More & more From its shore to shore Oh, return to us Please once more!
We can do better Help us to cling to Each word, Each letter Within Your precious book For we know It is within our hands Our choice To reject Or
To take our stand Upon Your words Realizing at last It is only Your strength Your power Lord Jesus That holds together Undergirds Everything
So, forgive us we pray May we never again stray So far away as we seem To have done in this Current time, this day
I got to enjoy a bike ride along our river’s greenway. Even though it was cold, still I enjoyed the trees, water and some wildlife. Without their leaves, you can really see the actual shapes of the trees, especially the beautiful old sycamore trees with all their white bark. Also got to watch some mallard ducks trolling for food in the river. Also, check out the video above on my youtube channel at https://youtu.be/ZrjWsbPNLOY Have a blessed day!
Winter
Winter's beauty Owns its own allures Exhibited in true joys Although not as green As luscious summer's toys But still entertaining Desiring also our Approval to be gaining For remember after all Tis the mighty hand of God Creates its chilly framing And it's rampant charms Oh so most beguiling
No one else Has ever died For me Hanging on A bloody, agonizing tree For all this world to see That day, All history shifted From pain, shame Toward one man's name Jesus of Nazareth In one word's breath Christ
Just remember No other 'god' before Ever dared to try to Even man's score By taking on itself The punishment Of its own creation Only Christ Indeed there was No dereliction Of His duties
So please remember Dear friends As your life Continues its Progressing There are Important matters Much more Pressing Faith in Christ, Hope, Love For you see Upon the existence Of their surety Rests entirely Your eternity's security
All in all
Untainted
Uncorrupted
Perfect Goodness
On display
Every day
So no one can say
They do not know You
How huge
How massive
The realization
That the Lord of All
The only God
Of this creation
Desires for man
To live with Him
Forever
So do not say
He does not exist
You do not know Him
For the stars above
Turn, they twist
Only within God's grip
We should all
Learn how to praise
His Name
Even His holy angels
Eternally desire
To realize the same
Abandonment
A very big issue
Today
In homes
We abandon each other
Spouses, children
God never intended
For each to suffer
Such
At the hands
Of one another
Core issue is,
Of course,
We have abandoned
The Book
God's Book
We have forgotten
Rebelled
No longer into
It's guidelines
Deeply look
For when you
Abandon it
You abandon Him
Lord, Master, Creator
And
Writer
Of His Book
On which
With all our strength,
Souls,
We should
Have stood
So let us return
In this country
Still fairly young
To our first
greatest love
Words in
Black and white
Literally flowing
From above
Telling of Christ,
GOD'S
Glory
And His Paradise's Story!
