Time is Ticking
Time is ticking, ticking by,Birds are singing, babies cry,Hearts are mourning things long dead,Words ill spoken, should not said. So regretful, those who mournOver things should not been born,Wish that they could all erase,And the truth not have to face. We cannot erase the past,Even if we pray and fast.What we did will long live … Continue reading Time is Ticking

Strange Bedfellows
Blocking, stalking, fans are flocking,Strange bedfellows, they’re not knocking.Peeking through the windows plenty,As if love they ain’t got any. Window chasers, they are gazers,Destitute, they are debasers.Lusts a plenty, not without,They go there, without a doubt. All is for them, them not caring,Who it is on they are staring,Self-indulging, wasted effort,They are hiding, not transparent. … Continue reading Strange Bedfellows
Why Was Jesus Hated?
Jesus Christ,Who is the Son of God,Taught the narrow way,Not the way that’s broad. Did not participate HeIn the ways of manBut He followed God,And He lived God’s plan. Walked the narrow way,Led a righteous life,Obeyed God’s commands,Free from sin and strife. Shared the gospel truth,He opposed the lies,Called out hypocrites,Told them they would die. … Continue reading Why Was Jesus Hated?
Family Ties
We give them birth, and then they’re grown,And now they’ve families all their own,But ne’er do they depart our hearts,Of us they’ll always be a part. They ne’er will stop from being our kids,We do not wish from us to rid,We hope they’ll stay part of our lives,We hope beyond us they’ll survive. We love … Continue reading Family Ties
Testifying
Game players, naysayers,Falsifiers, hypocrites,Justifiers, rationalizers,Testifying counterfeit. Truth tellers, faith dwellers,Living holy, righteousness,Sacrificing, their flesh dying,Testifying faithfulness. Christ’s gospel, full gospel,Nothing hindered, no debate,Sin dying, God’s word buying,Testifying not too late. Repenting, sin relenting,Walk in freedom, not in sin,Christ following, him obeying,Testifying sins forgiven. An Original Work / July 20, 2023
I Say, “Goodnight”
I say, “Goodnight,” I say, “Goodbye,”I say, “Hello,” now don’t you cry,For life is short in many ways,We do not know how many days. For time is ticking, ticking by,We do not know when we will die,It could be soon, it could be late,For we know not the final date. For we are born and … Continue reading I Say, “Goodnight”
