MARTHA

Martha, you’re alarming Me
You’re just a blur of light
So busy doing things for Me
You cannot see your plight
While you’re dashing round the place
Intent on doing all
You haven’t time to hear My voice
When you, I softly call
You need to stop and rest in Me
And I will show you why
You’ve nowt to prove to anyone
You’re precious in [...]

CREATION

Creation is of You, oh God
Creation is Your gift
To show us how You love us so
Even when we drift
It is amazing what You’ve done
Variety and might
To please Your people here on earth
In sound and smell and sight.
Forgive us Lord for straying off
Away from Your great Love
Please draw us back into Your arms
Perhaps You’ll have to [...]

HOW THE DEVIL

How the devil are you
What are you on today
Will you rejoice in carnal things
Or walk the humble way
Will you forsake your mindset
And let Him take a hold
So everything you say and do
Reflects what you’ve been told
Or be all sad and miserable
Bemoaning all your ills
Blaming others for your state
And cramming down the pills
The choice is very [...]

REACH FOR ME

Reach for Me when you feel sad
When life’s no longer fun
I know what you are going through
I’ve been there with My Son
Though you feel like giving up
I can reverse your fate
Turn to Me, your greatest fan
It never is too late.
The trials and tribulations
Inflicting you right now
Are fleas upon an itching back
Let Me show you how
To [...]

PRAYER

Prayer is something that we do
Putting trust in unseen hands
We have faith, but only if
God concedes to our demands
Answering our shopping lists
Full of thought’s that we concoct
Wonder why they are not met
Why are they so often blocked?
Jesus lives within our hearts
By His stripes we have been healed
Why then, do we block His thoughts
Keep His promptings [...]

SACRIFICE

A man is told what He must do
To bring about a link to God
Though He surely has a choice
He knows He must and gives the nod
To what must be a dreadful death
A road to agony and strife
The time of year is here my friend
When Jesus gave His perfect life.
Perhaps we do not comprehend
The wonder of [...]

FAITH IS

Faith is believing
That the One you cannot see
Is going to turn your life around
Eventually
Give Him full access to
The parts you want to hide
And with His help you’ll notice
That the pain, it will subside
For He is love and gentleness
Who wouldn’t hurt a fly
And has the power to overcome
The chains that bind and tie
So if you’re trembling [...]

DEVOTION

It’s been a journey, full of change
You had Your work cut out
Accepting me, just how I was
A sinner full of doubt
But slowly You have done the job
Of stripping down the mask
Today I stand upon the rock
You have fulfilled Your task
Of changing me into the child
That You made me to be
Devoted to Your guiding hand
Which saved [...]

DUALISM

Look around you, everyone
Tell me what you see
A bunch of smiling Christians
Happy as can be
Some are walking with The Lord
Some just say they are
Chanting all the proper words
But living in a jar
Full of safe, familiar things
That feed their hungry souls
They don’t want to step outside
Their self anointed goals
Dabble in all kinds of darkness
They know they [...]

DARKNESS

The ranks of darkness, lining up
Are ready for the call
To infiltrate the souls of saints
And that includes us all
Who haven’t a relationship
With Jesus and The Word
The lack of strength within our hearts
Will not withstand the purge.
With our dependence on the world
We’re spiritually weak
Still governed by our fractured past
And not prepared to seek
The deep indwelling work [...]
