New Experience!


New Experience!

Receive a new body
You say
Be pulled out of
This shell of clay?
Never commit another sin
Your perfection's glory
Eternally to win?

Oh, how I desire to live in
Such strengthened faith
Allowed each day the details to trace
Of God's smiling, most wonderful face
Oh the joy to live among the angels wings
Hearing crystal clear forever
Their praises to you loudly ring
Their ecstasy be allowed to capture
Standing amidst their increasing rapture
Loudly I sigh and deeply long
To live within the beauty of
Your Paradise’s glorious songs!

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!

Does Not Matter


Does Not Matter

I will not listen
I do not care
So go ahead
Spit your ugly words
Out into this darkened air

I have a Holy Savior
Jesus Christ is His Name
You no longer
Have the power
To cause Him any pain

He now sits enthroned
Above this swirling globe
For you see
All my sin
With His royal blood
He most joyfully atoned

Today it does not matter
How much evil you
Spew forth
For as my tiny life
Winds down
Runs out its only course

I choose Christ
On Him I set my sights
He is the greatest
Lover of my small soul
Even though
You may seek
Upon me to take
A deadly toll
Against HIM
You always lose!!
