GRASS

They say the grass is greener
Upon the other side
And there’s an urge to prove it
From which you cannot hide
Dreams of fun and eden
Pervade your  passive mind
Egged on by the devil
Who can be very kind.
But if you stop to ponder
About the pros and cons
Then there could be calamity
When all your peace is gone
You’ve shattered your relationships
With [...]

I DON’T DESERVE

I don’t deserve to be the one
Who Jesus died to save
I don’t deserve to be the one
Who Christ took to the grave
Then He rose to give me life
A wretched soul like me
Why did He go through all that pain
Just to set me free.
It is surely up to me
To grasp His offered love
Even though I’m hesitant
To [...]

COMFORT ZONE

What becomes of your comfort zone
When it’s turned upside down
Something out of your control
Decides to come to town
A visit unexpected
That strikes a part of you
An unhealed place from long ago
That you’ve kept safe from view.
You thought that all those healing times
Put paid to inner pain
That all the careful snipping
Finally made you whole again
But God’s a [...]

CHOICE

The choice is simple, the world or me
Treasure on earth or eternity
Advance My kingdom, by My hand
Or spread your seed on barren ground
Do you put your trust in Me
Or a dying force you cannot see
To you, have I not proved Myself
Kept you solvent, in rude health
Now I want to see you fly
On eagles wings, soaring [...]

CHURCH

We come here each sunday to meet with The Boss,
And promise Him,gladly,we’ll carry The Cross,
To be His disciples,His vessels for change,
A powerful army,His troops on the range.
But all this bravado is far from the truth,
We’re being found out,as He asks for the proof,
Our intentions are fine,but our practice is not,
We are withholding all that we’ve [...]

COME CLOSE TO ME

Come close to Me my children
You are the chosen few
Your company I cherish
Stick to Me like glue
For times are getting troubled
And fear has gripped the land
It’s time to take Me seriously
Come here and hold my hand.
My love for you is infinite
In Me you can be real
So drop the mask that separates
And tell Me how you [...]

CLOT

What’s the use of trying to be
Something that you’re not
Pretending that you are complete
Shows that you’re a clot
It’s only people that have sussed
While humble and contrite
Without the help of Jesus Christ
They can do no right.
Because you’ve done it your own way
You’re in the mess you’re in
You hide it with a mask of calm
You even wear [...]

CHOOSE

My dear friend, it’s time to choose
The future of your life
You’ve reached the bottom of your walk
And now you’re deep in strife
Do you go back to what you were
Where you were safe and sound
Or take the hand of Jesus
Be led to higher ground.
Your structure is supporting you
It runs the way you think
But happiness has disappeared
Cause [...]

COOL

It’s cool to be a giver
To share your bounteous feast
It’s right to relegate yourself
Your most becoming least
To offer up the things you have
And ease anothers plight
For everything belongs to God
He wants the balance right
Your blessing will be peace of mind
As you release the hold
On all your earthly treasures
If you would be so bold
To store your [...]

CLING TO ME

Cling to Me, cling to Me
Don’t dare let go
For I have a purpose
That I want to sow
Refining and shaping
Is part of the deal
I’ll try to be gentle
So you do not squeal.
Later, when all this
Is over and done
You’ll be on the bedrock
And with Me you’ll run
The race of a winner
A warrior for Me
The past just a [...]
