LOVE

I Cannot Save You

I cannot Save You

Sitting on a throne
Royal blood decided
And even though angels chided
His mind would not be changed

I will go do this
Their eternal bliss
Hangs in the balance
For this they will
Have utterly no talent
I myself will save them!

So do not look to me
I too must stay on bended knee
For my own salvation to receive
On a pedestal do not place a human
I do not wish to draw you toward me.

My, man’s blood, is tainted
And although a human head
May be called sainted
Still man’s blood is impure
For none will escape that tragic allure
Sin still holds for all of us

It took the blood of the purest of all
To cleanse our darkest sins
You must follow His voice & His alone
If You truly desire to win
This battle most ferocious 
we all currently struggle in, 
For Only Christ’s Holy
But bloodied, clean waters
Can remove the blackened stains
Of our, (man’s), horrific sins!

Prayer for a Sunday Morning!

Prayer

Come, Lord Jesus, Come
Come, Lord Jesus, Come
I pray you to save
Us, Me from myself
And my dark enemy’s 
Cruelty & destructive ways

Help me to completely 
Let go of this world
My soul & heart to renew
And hold only onto you
Your Light, Your Power, 
Your Wonderful Beauty
And Your Strength to restore me to
Yourself and Your Kingdom!

         Lord Jesus, 
Praise You, Praise You!!

Wait Patiently!

Wait Patiently

It will come
That Holy Son
Will return
So today of all days
do not spurn
His loving kindness

Even as we wait
He holds open
Golden gates
To life, joy peace
They will of course
For later keep
But should we not seek
Them even now?

Somehow
We are meant 
& are being sent
From heaven’s royal thrones
To gather all those dry bones
Back to life

Awake, arise church, awake!
For all our sakes
Go forward
Lead this land
Back toward 
Those nail-scarred hands
His paradise awaits
For this is the truest of all fates!!

Eden(save it or lose it)

Eden
(save it or lose it)

Clouds swirl
The ethers twirl
in moving thick clouds
obscuring regions below
until at last pierced
by sun’s arrows to show

Eden,
perfection’s newest glow
a paradise’s home
Man never meant to roam
lives in perfect peace
with all

Until he turns his back
on his Lord’s call,
his name, creation & life
And through that one act
brings forth pain, death & strife

for the first time darkness
permeates the garden

but wait, wait
there comes a second call
to revive us from 
the blackest pit of 
our slippery, plunging fall
Jesus Christ, that light
on the cross a perfect lamb
sent, holds out a hand
to save every woman, every man

we must play our part
let him have our complete heart
to generate a new start
for ourselves and this planet’s life
we all have our own part
to play if in our own days
we want to help receate Utopia
our very selves to save
& rejoin ourselves back to God

It is Your choice
never will be forced
Live totally for & with God
or
Be swallowed by the darkness
where never will you rest
You will be enslaved, forced into
that violent machine, that dark team
Of satan’s demolition service
and help shred Utopia into pieces

Consumerism

Consumer-ism

Consumer-ism here
Consumer-ism there
Consumer-ism everywhere
It travels by land,
Travels by sea,
Flies through the air!

Consume it preaches
Consume it teaches
With long taloned 
Fingers it reaches
To hold, enfold
Everyone, us all 
Until the last remnant 
Finally is sold

Taught by all advertisers
Those oh so clever despisers
Of thrift, economy
The idea that you do not
Have to own each 
& every thing you see!

And so this culture rolls on
Grinding out the same old song
BUY, SPEND, CONSUME
We continue to follow, 
Dance to their mesmerizing 
But false, lying tunes,

That large volumes of things
Bring us true joy
Only more and more toys
Will satisfy
But still life hurts, disappoints
And we softly cry
Knowing somewhere inside
Something is wrong

What if,
Instead of all the preaching
Of material wealth
(it is a form of belief)
We as a people began to teach
Not to be good consumers
Of mere physical things
But let our voices ring, sing
good sellers, tellers of
Jesus of Nazareth

The Living Christ
I will say it twice, even thrice
God is the center of your being
Only in HIM is life, true seeing
Of love, joy, deepest peace
It is of HIM we should happily teach
And only, only of HIM consume!!
