The World as We Know It
Slander, meander, and gander, not candor, Inviting, enticing, spicing, and dicing, Twirling, and hurling, and whirling, unfurling, Outrageous, egregious, rampageous, contagious. The world as we know it, not pretty, tis true, The world should not live now, not inside of you. The Spirit of God should now live in your heart, And from God you … Continue reading The World as We Know It
Jesus Paid it All
Now Jesus paid it all one day, And so my sins He took away. He pardoned me of all my sin So I would now live just for Him. For in His death He ransomed me So from my sin I’d be set free, So I would walk with Him each day And kneel to … Continue reading Jesus Paid it All
I Asked the Lord in Prayer
Today I asked the Lord in prayer If life on earth should not be fair, Should everyone get what’s deserved For all they’ve done, for all they’ve served. I contemplated that in mind, In hoping that the truth I’d find. And as I gave it some deep thought, The truth of all, it surely brought. … Continue reading I Asked the Lord in Prayer
Easter McFeaster
Your treasure your pleasures, Indulgent enjoyment, You follow whoever, And praise the flamboyant. The colors and baskets, The eggs all a plenty, The project, you task it, The purpose is empty. The bunnies with ribbons, The trinkets on tables, By greed you’ve been bitten, You then tell your fables. And Santa’s the bunny, Now dressed … Continue reading Easter McFeaster
To Sing a New Song
To sing a new song, a song in my heart, A song that’s of joy, to never depart, To sing it out loud where people can hear, To sing now with courage and never with fear, To sing in the morning and even at night, To sing of salvation, of Jesus, the Light, To tell … Continue reading To Sing a New Song
While They’re Sleeping
Shifting, creeping, while they’re sleeping, Through the windows they are peeping, Hidden glances and romances, They continue in their prances. Now they make for strange bedfellows, Lifting up their barks and bellows, Thirst for lust, not what is holy, They are moving very slowly. Not sincere, they hide their motives, Make excuses for explosives, Vain … Continue reading While They’re Sleeping
Emotions and Devotions
Don’t let your emotions ruin your devotions. Don’t let your thinking be a cause for sinking. Don’t let the chatter cause your faith to shatter. Don’t turn the tables and put your trust in fables. Time now is fleeting. Who are you believing? Truth is what matters. Listen not what flatters. Listen to The Bible … Continue reading Emotions and Devotions
Life Uncertain
Texting, vexing, and now sexting Windows open, shadows lurking People peek behind the curtains Life now surely so uncertain Evil is around the corner In the shadows, under cover Waiting, tempting, looks for targets Self-indulgent always searching Dreamers, sluggards, time a wasting Fearing not a judgment hastening Take God’s gift of grace for granted For … Continue reading Life Uncertain
Ring Out the Sound
Ring out the sound, ring out the bells, And of the gospel, tell them, tell. Do not hold back, and please don’t slack, For many of the truth do lack. Get that truth out, give it a shout, And don’t you now have any doubt That God can take it, take it far, So be … Continue reading Ring Out the Sound
