I’m Sorry

I’m Sorry

I'm sorry for what
We did to you
Holy Christ
But still we do it
Somehow in our crazy
Insane rush to sin
We crucify you over &
Over again

We ignore you
Rejecting that inner plea
To adore you
From that ignorant stance
Within only one
Darkened evil glance
We completely deny
You exist
Becoming what
Is called atheist

Oh, Dearest Son of God
When will we banish
For good such thoughts!
One day you've promised
To return
To gather to yourself
Those who've spurned
A devil's temptation 
To deny your royalty
Through their attempts 
To express their loyalty
As back into your arms
And heart eternally
will they all be
Gathered most joyfully!

What is it to Love?



What is it to Love?

What is love
It is to sacrifice
For the sake of another
Not only for a lover
But for a sister or 
A brother

It is to resist
Those demonic urgings
To twist 
our original innocence
& to stand in defiance
Of that satan's mindless
Darkened call 
For us over & over
Again To fall
Into His pit of hell

So give to all our brothers
Be generous with one another
And return to this earth
As was intended from its inception
And our original birth
The ability to sincerely love
& no longer from us 
Will God depart
Choosing to return us instead
To that Paradise it is
To live only within His heart!

Ferociously Wonderful!

Ferociously Wonderful!

Ferociously wonderful
Brighter in every way
Than
A million 
Or perhaps dare I say
A trillion 
Suns

Tirelessly
God, you work
Your Spirit
To usurp
satan's evils

So on and on You go
Trying to grab, grasp
(Even ferociously if You have to)
Our attention
So evil will surrender
And in our hearts
Take its last dying gasp

The Retort

The Retort

Greedmongers
Here there everywhere
Spinning words into the air
Buy this buy that
So they can have their share
Of our money

Buy things you don't really need
Here it is come & see
Only this new thing 
Will make you truly happy

So we listen to their song
How I wish they would leave 
Us alone!
They rail they rant
On & on trying to enchant

 But life has more meaning
Than what on a surface 
may be seeming
To be so important

A Savior's voice
Trying to retort
To a world's greedmongers
Says there is another better choice

A kingdom of heaven 
May first you seek
So your Dearest soul 
Will Christ pursue
Desires to keep
Within His hands
Forever to live with Him
In God's most holy & Purest
New promised land!

The Tear

The Tear

Don't cry, Lord Jesus
Why that tear
Does a sorrow to you 
Draw too near
I lay my cheek upon your hand
As flowers around my head
Do blend
Let me love you 
Oh my God, my dear

You lift the crystal fluid
Off your cheek
Wait a moment 
Before you speak
It is not for sorrow 
That my eyes do weep
But for pure joy
That in eternity 
Forever more 
May I now you keep!

In My Bones

In My Bones

In my bones
I know
I have another home
Another place
To live before a face
More beautiful
Than any other

It is man’s greatest hope
But
Comes most of the time
With an inner struggle
Seeming sometimes a great mystery
Or a somewhat confusing puzzle
Still God promises if we try
We are assured of the greatest prize
A home before His beauty
Forever

So lift up your eyes,
Your very souls
Make His will 
Your life’s greatest goal
And learn to let go
Of that raging inner self
For
It is not I that lives 
But Christ that lives in me!!
