He Loves You, Yeah, Yeah. . .!

Yeah, He loves us Folks white as a sheet Others black as the night Not about the color All about the chasin’ And He ain’t losin’ Anyone whom he calls. Gird up those balls He’s breakin’ down walls Got people to reach Souls to teach Yeah, things to do. Gonna pull one over on you […]

Consternation

O the consternation Off one sitting in contemplation:The things left undoneWhile on the runChasing duties ’til the sunFalls down below the horizonAnd then, even beyondThose duties thwarted by cutiesComes the reminderThat all will be talliedWhen sinners are ralliedBefore the One who cameBearing all the shameOf the those He madeFallen into the shadeOf rebellion and prideAnd […]

Moments in Time

We worship moments in time Memories, places, pictures sublime. Yet it is we, who were created. The Maker is our worship owed Throughout our days in this abode.

A Noble Woman

She was an ambitious girlAnd I, condescending,Took up her pleasAnd we did marry.On we went from my stageTo stage children aplentyAnd many were the blessingsThey brought us.But much holier is sheThan the pious “me.”Set apart was IFor His business – the Word.She took up the call to unionOf man and woman for life,That office of […]

A Nation Guilty

The whole damned nation is guiltyDemocrats for advocatingRepublicans for toleratingFive decades of baby butchery.We are a sick peopleAll worthy of death.Repentance alone will save usAnd only by the graceOf the One who died for peopleOf every nation.His mercy is more precious than gold.No time for shyness, but to be boldAnd revolt against the slaughtersOf sons […]
