The day shall come when Christ returns
the book says prepare now, earn your favor in Gods great sight
or fear the retribution which awaits unfaithful fools
To claim you have seen truth
spat from the lips of men unfaithful to Gods glory
gives you cause to fear the wrath from blind arrogance and sin
when in the end of day's all men, women, and children, in God's image are judged
the ones in holy sincerity shall join the Lord's table instantaneously
while the damned shall fall into chaos of their own making
No forgiveness is granted to those who claim belief with hearts lacking resolution to repent and save
damned are those who claim faith in the creator they would readily shun if not for petty selfishness
Until such a time when an individual can break down the walls of a human heart
when nothing is left but revelry and devotion to envelope the soul shall such a servant be born
their presence resounding and unquestionable
only then shall the doubtful rebuking mournful souls begin to see a shed of light
light that shall signify the conclusion to our scarred and flawed existence.

I Request from God Understanding
am I speaking to God
do i ask for myself
what request did i decide upon
all i can choose is one
out of fear should i request for forgiveness of my sins
out of love should i ask to stay by you
out of reverence should i request to hear your wisdom
no
in respect i shall request understanding
if i am able to understand my guilt i know i will be forgiven
if i am able to understand who you are i can love you as close as a brother
if i understand your teachings the wisdom the that i revere will grant itself to me
the result shall be such a greater respect than what i have now
i could not possible keep you to myself
So God may i respectfully request understanding.

All That I Know is in You and its All I Need
Why do you love me?
In my rejection of your mercy
In my lustful desires
And in my greed you wait for me
You tell me to come to my senses and I ask, why?
Why do you have such patience for me?
My arrogance tries to push you away
My ignorance attempts to create a gap between us
But somehow you always become a figure of strength by my
side
Now I ask how?
God in your love, an endless ocean I stand
Watching the moon you created with all its serenity
And I suddenly feel at peace.
Content to let go of all that I want
Willing to forsake all the dislikes and begrudging
emotions
Just to be in your light.
I turn from the moons quiet gaze
To watch the rising the sun which shuts out all other
light in its brilliance
Its power that you created to give brilliance upon all
lives that you created.
And I scream for joy
I am given the passion to pursue your glory and share
your wisdom
I’ve lost all fear
And god I slowly lose my questioning spirit
Praising you for all that I am worth
And simply wanting to live through you
As you live in me
I turn now to the stars that remain in the dawn
And I burst into tears of ecstasy
How can I be anywhere close to sad?
You saved me from myself
You saved from the devil
You saved me from sin
All that I know now is the core you have become in my
soul
All I need are the teachings that you have given me.
I am satisfied in you

Titles Belongs To Those Who Act Upon beliefs
Where is the world we seek to save?
How must we go about saving it?
I tell you now it is within our very grasp
but we cannot feel that which we struggle to separate ourselves from.
For we are among this struggling world.
forgetting about ourselves amidst all that struggles to save others
and even now as some save others rather than themselves
many more retire to the shackles the broke
keeping a title yet to be earned through saving those who had once stood chained beside them
In Gods Grace we live, laze, and die.
only to be asked by God on high
what make us believe we have earned our place?
how can you claim to be Gods children when you did nothing but ignore the commands of God?
I say to you now Gods word is only understood by those willing to act upon it
so do not claim that God is in your heart when you do not follow his commands
rather repent for your arrogance and plead for his grace again
because you cannot fight a devil alone when he has already won the war.
salvation is free to those who seek it
but those who seek salvation must spread what it has to offer
and should consider salvation only when they are ready to help save others.
so those who hold titles in loose grips
be aware that those titles mean nothing
unless you are ready to spread that title to the next chained slave.

Where to Compare With God
I saw the stars in dreams
I viewed the sun on a personal scale
and I awoke to a burning sensation
desire
I want to see god up close
to entertain a deities worth
then compare it to my own
forever is a definition of time
perception is times personal flow
but our god outside of time goes beyond forever
I flew with the red-winged black bird
to fall amongst mice in the shadows as prey
and I felt my heart fall behind me
I want to envision an immortals light
to try blocking its source
and get burned as the price
I want to test my luck
die by karma's smile
and rise in the broken ashes
black from creating the dark side of the moon
where I pulled out the famous mortal lights
asking where God was shining

its the book meant for everyone
For you, the homeless
for him, the one on hard times
for her, the lonely lady
for all the burdened people
Those sad people living day by day
waiting on miracles to come
miracles that will never come to pass
For the unfair life
that is lived by the people born unto an unlucky star
those who need something to believe in
something to give them hope
It has been said that we are loved
the book has been written to give hope
the tale of the great king has been chronicled
all for those who wish to know of a single omnipotent existence
The one who came to save the world
from an almighty fathers wrath
History was spun
and a great moment in the world was revealed
all meant for the world of self centered people
hurt people
sad people
sick people
the holy book was written
the bible
for him, the one on hard times
for her, the lonely lady
for all the burdened people
Those sad people living day by day
waiting on miracles to come
miracles that will never come to pass
For the unfair life
that is lived by the people born unto an unlucky star
those who need something to believe in

The Fascination I Have
No story
No painting
No attainable item
No thing
Has the capacity to grasp
Jesus Birth
A single star to signify the beginning of the end of sins control
High above the stable
Father God
Watching his holy sons birth
As mother Mary lays the head of Jesus to rest
In straw, in loving silence
Three Kings in mortal reverence
They arrive with gifts
Incense, gold, and myrrh
From three kings without explanation
The respect for Gods son comes
It is here, the story of God's glory begins to climax
Only the cross can signify the final stretch of mans existence
And only Revelations will bring the end
But through the resolution Jesus Life will be remembered
And Christmas will glory the birth of our savior
The creators son
I am fascinated by the bible
Like so many before me, with me
And yet to say they believe

In Majesty You Saved
God oh God
By grace you sent your son
In mercy and love
You sent a savior
Through the streets of Rome
Your perfect son carried the cross
Holding sin and death upon his shoulders
And when death sealed Christ's lips
The curtain tore
You came to live amongst us
In arrogant anger
We helped you save us
In fear you showed us light
You lifted the veil of sin
Your children could finally see
Now we live in free choice
Enslaved by sin
Or enraptured by you
In worship, in praise
Giving ourselves up
Many make the choice
intent upon our hearts
Your glory has no bounds
It floods our lives
as your mercy clears our eyes
No idol, not any material gain
Nothing could fill the void but you
So i create the praises for you
The one who bridged the gap
Became sent the ultimate sacrifice
Through Jesus Christ our lord
By grace you sent your son
In mercy and love
You sent a savior
Through the streets of Rome
Your perfect son carried the cross
Holding sin and death upon his shoulders
And when death sealed Christ's lips
The curtain tore
You came to live amongst us

We helped you save us

No More, I Wish to Live in Light
Grant satisfaction
Grant me grace, and courage
I feel as though
I have done nothing of consequence
I fear, I falter
I search to self preserve
Calling myself your child
I came because I lacked
I feared and strayed
I want to grow
Faith, courage
You lift me up when I have fallen
You forgive me when I confess wrong doing
You have succeeded in the impossible for mortal flesh to accomplish
You saved your people from damnation
I lived in self pity
I swam in selfish thoughts
wanting this wishing that
I left your path so many times
I dug so many holes
And you pulled me out every time
I gave my life to you
But i changed nothing
Did nothing but stay with your people
Now i say I'm starting to change
My desire is now to serve you
To grow and praise
And to speak your word
And so as you lead
I will follow you God
Grant me grace, and courage
I feel as though
I have done nothing of consequence
I fear, I falter
I search to self preserve
Calling myself your child
I came because I lacked
I feared and strayed
I want to grow
Faith, courage
You lift me up when I have fallen
You forgive me when I confess wrong doing
You have succeeded in the impossible for mortal flesh to accomplish
You saved your people from damnation
I lived in self pity
I swam in selfish thoughts
wanting this wishing that
I left your path so many times
I dug so many holes
And you pulled me out every time
I gave my life to you
But i changed nothing
Did nothing but stay with your people
Now i say I'm starting to change
My desire is now to serve you
To grow and praise
And to speak your word
And so as you lead
I will follow you God
