CASH

Have you problems with your cash
Find your fast eroding stash
Is causing you all kinds of pain
Panic button pushed again
Do your bills outpace your wage
Putting years upon your age
In a pickle, there’s no doubt
Who can aid your sudden drought.
God is loving, very kind
Turn to Him for peace of mind
He can help your budget fit
If together you [...]

LOOK

Look at the way your life’s turned out
You may be relieved or confused
Depending on where you stand right now
You may be content or bemused
For there is only one way to live
And you were created for this
To be a child of Father God
The offer’s to good to miss.
If you’re on the darker side
Your prospects look quite [...]

LIGHT BULB

Like a dodgy light bulb
I’m flickering on and off
Waiting for the filament
To give it’s final cough
One day I am full of light
And everything is fine
Then the darkness reappears
I walk a narrow line.
Perhaps it’s my decision
To choose a preference
Between the two contrasting sides
If I had any sense
I’d settle for the peace and joy
That comes from knowing [...]

KINGDOM COME

The kingdom’s come to set you free
From what you’re going through
No matter what your state of mind
There’s always hope for you
Relinquish every moving part
To He who knows you best
For He will take your problems on
Just let Him do the rest.
For years you’ve struggled to be good
To follow what you’ve heard
And many times you’ve given up
The [...]

IF LIFE

If life was as it should be
And everything was great
There was no catastrophe
Arriving at our gate
Perhaps we would cease praying
And do it all ourselves
We’d leave our blessed saviour
Lying idly on the shelf.
But life, it can be dangerous
You never can fortell
Today you may be heavenly
Tomorrow, down in hell
So during times of plenty
When everything is fine
Remember who [...]

HAPPINESS

Everyone longs for happiness
But few possess it’s fruit
It’s easier to wear a mask
Than give away your suit
As we are all self centred
We care for number one
Concerned with all our pressing needs
No wonder we’re so glum.
The answer is to leave our nest
Where we prefer to lie
And look upon another’s need
As to ourselves we die
Then all that [...]

THE RACE

With elbows pumping to and fro
You’re going nowhere very fast
On the treadmill of the world
But you’re bound to come in last
For  the finish line is endless
You will never reach that rope
If you run on earthly octane
The prize of life will be a hope.
Step down off that moving rat race
Learn to rest in One who knows
How [...]

THE WAY

The way of God is narrow,
The way of God is tough,
You wibble wobble on the way,
And flounder in the rough.
Like a child,you climb back on,
And off you go again,
Resistance blows and batters you,
It really is a pain.
Something keeps you going,
A force that works for good,
You’re getting even stronger,
As you’re wading through the flood.
Persistence forms the [...]

THE CROSS

It may be ugly, rough and grim
But we know that it works
And when we visit frequently
To be cleansed of our quirks
It means that we mean business
And know that we have failed
To walk a pure and sinless road
To where our Lord was nailed.
He died an awful, sinless death
So we would all attain
The chance to live the [...]

STUFF

Why do you put your steadfast faith
In things that cause you pain
How can you live a decent life
When all you want is gain
Do the things surrounding you
Fill you with lots of pride
Trying to keep up with the rest
Drowning in the tide
Washing all your waking hours
Into a drain of fear
Surely you would like the peace
That doesn’t [...]
