He went out onto the streets For it was always His Original Intention The lost to save and to seek
Sure, in temple courts He did indeed also teach But let it be known That Christ also Walked the streets Where the lost, the blind, The lame Were never beyond his reach
So take Him out there For church walls cannot Will not Were never meant to contain, Our King of Glory It's always the same story Remember, Man-made walls were Never made His words To imprison Death could not stop His Strength, Love or Grace For Jesus is alive His has eternally arisen!!!
Get down on your knees Oh broken, lost world As the KING of GLORY Passes by May I hear an Audible sigh?
Or maybe not Because Of one thing I fear, We forgot
Coming from so many Pulpits of today Of a very large influence Are words. . . Jesus loves you But of the same pursuance Should be JESUS IS LORD, MASTER, KING! Of these facts should be A total congruence!!!!
So many spiritual leaders Heard today Strip Christ and the Father Of their AUTHORITY Their POWER Over this earth This planet We currently inhabit This world This large, glowing Revolving green pearl
For only this world's Creator King Has the right to command His creation Of this fact the teachers should Not forget nor shun It leaves their listeners Without the correct information
So, put God and Christ Back on our heart's throne And take ourselves off For in life, There is at least still One sure thing He is our most gracious, Compassionate, loving, But ALMIGHTY KING!!
A world screaming In my ears Loudly, Systematically A world In love with Itself
Evil, crude Carousing Capable of Many fierce desires Arousing
Until That light Comes pulsating Gently pushing into your life At first maybe small Then larger Of tension Most rife
At odds with A world's narcissistic Evil Christ steps Sometimes roars Against Those strange dark Messages Around your heart Voraciously they soar
So, Tune out the Broken world Tune in Christ His brighter More benevolent light Follow His Gentle more Holy path And fall back into His wonderful, less selfish Loving Eternal Grasp!!
Idols, Idols Everywhere I look, I stare Turning my head I can see Enticing, me To Believe In their goodness What a mess!
You have yours I have mine They’re hard to let go Hard to unwind Most of the flesh To understand Not such a great test Power, Money Material Possessions Sex At time, they can lead To extremes of regret
In love with ourselves We run, we fume, we struggle At times, in singles Or often in doubles We collect, we hoard Then grasp We should feel insecure Nothing down here really Lasts
Reach for the eternal, A Holy Immortal God Please, oh please In Him learn to trust He desires to love us! His blessings They can be known So, don’t stand out in the Dark, all alone Reach for wisdom And take yourself off The idol’s throne!!
