A Fiery Dance

A FIERY Dance

When I think of Jesus
I think of fire & a heat
Found only in
the cadence
& the beat
Of His Intensely Holy Dance!

So trembling, with moving feet
Across the room I sweep
Caught up in, entranced
Within Your Holy Dance!

Limbs intertwining
By your side I am sighing
For this enchanting dance,
We should ever be so willing
To suffer any reprimand
Or even the risk of dying
From the hand of man!

Testify, Testify

Testify, Testify

Speak in whom you believe
Don’t be afraid to let
The whole world see
Show your faith
Break open those silent gates
& Testify

Life is not about
Philosophy or religion
But a Someone
A one and only Son
Salvation came 
Only because He gave
His Life

We are a creation
Made in Someone’s image
To be a smaller imitation
Of His Greatness’ reality
A goodness, love,
Righteous purity

So, let go
Let the words flow
Speak their names
Christ, Yahweh,
Rejoice you are allowed to say
Ring out the words
About whom you believe!

A Passion

A Passion

A passion has been lost
To the winds has been tossed
Blurred, obliterated
Distorted 
By modern distractions
Almost destroyed

But, 
All’s not lost
Passion can be revived
If we will but try
Embers are still burning
If to His heart 
we will be turning
Letting go of an ancient enemy’s lies

Stir the lurking flame
Found only in Christ’s name
Arise, ignite
Fan to life
In His sight
The now slumbering giant
Upon whom our faith is reliant
Called by the name of
FAITHFUL SACRIFICE!

Death





Death

A pulling out of the body
Will come for everyone
A removal of the familiar
It is a valley we must all pass through

So prepare yourself
While you still have a chance
While it is your Today
While you’re still this side of the grave
Do not listen to satan’s song & dance
Of denial

About  
Who owns this world & us
In a darkened voice do not place your trust
Only God promises renewal of your life
A final calm, relief from all pain & strife

Why do we ignore this deep but
Simple truth
So, 
In this world amidst your daily struggles, toil
Remember
Death is something no one can avoid

Oh, Please!

Oh, Please!

You say,
Oh please not this again
On that subject please do not begin
But I say yes
I feel compelled to do my best
To convince you

People do not want to hear today
Especially in the US of A
About another level of existence
To this among the world
Is a strong, strong level of resistance

Wanting to believe merely on the physical
Minds throw up all kinds of an obstacle
To believing in a supernatural
Of angels, demons, good, evil
Or heavens forbid, a God!

For them I feel most sorry
They miss out on Christ’s love
His kindness, mercy, joy-filled glory
On the face of this planet
Will there never be a more beautiful story!

Caught up in money’s lust
In themselves alone have they to trust
& only physical pleasures, 
The most fleeting of all treasures,
Ignoring an inner voice
Reminding that denying death 
For no one is a choice
 
So while they wish to wallow
Only in this physicality’s mud
I hope you will choose to follow
The Holy One from Above
& the forgiveness
Of His Beauty’s Overwhelming Love!! 

To Mars?

To Mars?

Our bodies were not made
To live on Mars
Are there not problems enough 
To solve on this planet
Revolving as it does amidst
The burning stars?

Curiosity and learning is one thing
But 
What about curiosity for eternity, God, Christ,
the destiny that awaits in His Paradise

Drawing nearer to our Creator
This God who leaned so close
Took on our form, our flesh
To withstand our cruelty’s test
Of dying on a bloodied cross

So would not our time be better spent
If to our time and energies we lent
The pursuit, reaching for the reality
of the Universe’s space
And went instead in search
of our Lord Creator’s face?

Psalm 19:1 The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands
