They call them old.They call them sheltered.They say they’re bold.They say they’re fettered. They say they’re crazy,That they’re insane.But they’re not lazy,The truth explain. For that’s opinion,But not in truth.They’ve no dominion,They are uncouth. They make their judgments,The truth not matters.But they’re redundant,They’re empty chatter. For they’re not followingThe Word of Truth,But they are swallowingA … Continue reading They Call Them Old

When Teardrops Fall
When the teardrops fall, I do call on my Lord.He is my support as I walk through the storm.In the womb of my mother, my life He did form,All that was for me He had planned ‘fore I was born.

Man’s Infatuations
He’s bent on destruction,No thought to his ways,Man’s infatuationsAre causing delays. No mind for the future,Thinks only of self,And that’s because He hasPut God on the shelf. His pride is his necklace,Thinks God does not knowHe’s speaking with malice,Then puts on a show.

Dead Men, Dry Bones
Dead men, dry bones,Wickedness fully formed.Hearers not, doers nay,So they all go out and play. Lie now, lie then,Truth not tell then to then.Whispers here, whispers there,Never once do say a prayer. “Turn now this way,Turnabout is fair play.”Jekyll-Hyde, double mind,Who is who is hard to find. Trust not. Wisdom.Learn from past. Get the hint.Don’t … Continue reading Dead Men, Dry Bones

But many are those filled with heartaches galore,While so many others their pain they ignore.So many weep silently now on … Continue reading Life Has Its Trials
When Things Get Crazy

You search within for words to say,But they can’t get to your … Continue reading When Things Get Crazy
