Beauty Without End
My soul shudders
Of your Beauty, Lord
It cannot comprehend
Of your Glory, Light
Power & Love
There is no end!!
Of your mercy,
Incomprehensible Forgiveness
Of all the dark mess
I have created at times
I do not like to think of those,
Or even bring them to mind
Reign in me, Lord
May I destroy the me within
So your unending Glory
Beauty may live, win
Its eternal way, sway
Over each of
And all my days!!
Only You Only you can lift Out of the deepest, slimiest Pit of despair The broken human soul Crushed, shattered, Reeling, staggering From the effects The price, the toll That wretched darkness extracts Oh, he is good, that Enemy of mine Hounding me thru All of my time But you sit enthroned Ensconced in your power And your name Destroying his sordid game That prince of the air That satan Breathing his hot breath In my face From birth even unto today But you remove Of his evil every trace Winning me to yourself My pain you do embrace My spirit you lift up Until I can say With joy you have filled my cup! So come, Lord Jesus, Come! Do it again As you did back then!!
My Child is Not My Child They look so peaceful, Serene, innocent These sleeping children Of mine But for this brief period Of time Them just to myself I cannot truly bind Inscribed upon their Hearts, their very souls Is an image of another By my inner voice This I am clearly told Coming through our bodies As mother, father But not by us created They have been stamped With the face, image of another In one family, all sisters, brothers With only one True Father They are God’s children I have been given the gift Of taking temporary care Each day I must give them wings So they themselves may upward lift Their tiny bodies & souls He commands this is my only goal! So with each prayer Said by the moon’s waning light I must release them With a heavy sigh Upward thru the skies Into the all-loving hands of Our Truest Father’s Power & Might!

Don’t Blame God I fuss, I cuss, I spit, I hiss I extend my claws Without a pause I’ll let you have it Then down I shrink After a moment to think Why did I do that? Lost control again I simply cannot win Control Over this lustful, errant Soul Of mine Maybe with more time? But no I know That will never happen Not in my day Will I ever have complete sway Who can I blame To mind comes the only name, Myself, me I am the only one I see Standing inside, beside me So do not blame God for Our destructive of life behavior Nor can you blame your neighbor He has his own evil to deal with God holds out his light Love, joy peace Always within your reach It is Your Choice So do not keep On blaming God For our compliance, our nod Toward the darkness
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
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!!
