Sufficiently His Blood Unfurled

Sin thoroughly blinded the whole world. God sufficiently His blood unfurled, But efficiently He saves the elect. And a wall remains erect, Separating goats from sheep. In the darkness they shall reap What they have sown in this life Of rebellion, murder and strife, But we don’t know for sure Who will persevere and endure. […]

Brockhoeft, Beseda, and Bray

Brockhoeft, Beseda and Bray A trio who had their own way. Each had his very own day In the light when the feds came down. Caught ’em after chasin’ ’em around. Well, you could call them the Triple Bs Setting “clinics” on fire to save babies. Call them whatever you choose; They got nothin’ to […]

Landed in Wilmington

Heart ache kickin’ me around! Didn’t know if I’d ever be found But I landed in Wilmington; Yeah I had been on the run. Had to find me a brand new place Get out of a nasty disgrace Yeah, and, I found that town! Had a really beautiful sound. Do what you gotta do, Take […]

David Had a Time

David had a time With a poor man’s lady Bathsheba was her name. Went not well, ’twas a shame! He took Uriah right to the grave, A good and a noble Hittite Taken right out of the fight. Nathan said, “You are the man! Yeah, you took another man’s lamb! So the sword won’t depart […]
