Every time a sinner repents
Every time an addict quits
His story repeats
Each time you’re touched by the Spirit
And when you do the Word after you hear it
His story repeats
Read the Bible say a prayer
Love someone show them you care
His story repeats
It started with twelve
Get your Bible off the shelf
His story repeats
His story repeats
would you like to hear it again
for the first time?

"Spirit Poem II"
This is you Lord
What would you have me say
I write as you speak
I’m yours
Speak Lord speak
You make me strong when otherwise I’m weak
I love you I love you
You love me You love me
God is good all the time
all the time God is good
Jesus is Lord Jesus is Lord
Where’s the reason, the rhyme?
What, Lord, should I type?
I let my fingers flow as I yield to you
What are your words, Lord
What are your words?
You inspired men of old
and now you inspire me
With pen with keyboard
I write for you
for you are worthy you are worthy
Where’s the message? What’s the point?
I write for you instead of smoking a joint
You are my high when I am down
You are my low when I am up
You bring stability, firmness, foundation
No drug can match you
No drink can touch you
No substitute compares
You O Lord bring breath to my bones
I don’t want a new drug
I don’t want a huge hug
unless it’s from you unless it’s from you
Only you are a good Substitute
for me on the cross
for me in the grave
for me
in hell
I rise with you Lord I rise with you
Death could not hold you
Hell lost its grip
You are free you are free
and so
am I
What would you have me say
I write as you speak
I’m yours
Speak Lord speak
You make me strong when otherwise I’m weak
I love you I love you
You love me You love me
God is good all the time
all the time God is good
Jesus is Lord Jesus is Lord
Where’s the reason, the rhyme?
What, Lord, should I type?
I let my fingers flow as I yield to you
What are your words, Lord
What are your words?
You inspired men of old
and now you inspire me
With pen with keyboard
I write for you
for you are worthy you are worthy
Where’s the message? What’s the point?
I write for you instead of smoking a joint
You are my high when I am down
You are my low when I am up
You bring stability, firmness, foundation
No drug can match you
No drink can touch you
No substitute compares
You O Lord bring breath to my bones
I don’t want a new drug
I don’t want a huge hug
unless it’s from you unless it’s from you
Only you are a good Substitute
for me on the cross
for me in the grave
for me
in hell
I rise with you Lord I rise with you
Death could not hold you
Hell lost its grip
You are free you are free
and so
am I
"Bride"
Arrayed in white
Loved by Light
Known from of old
Sparkles like a diamond
Beauty thrice refined
Crowned with gold
Bride made glorious
Bride victorious
He gave up His life
All bloody and red
Then raised from the dead
Purchased He His wife
Sword on hip
Hand on hilt
Ready to be engaged
Bride of battle
Dowry of cattle
A thousand hills grazed
Resolute she stands
With upraised hands
Ardently yearning
Her heart ablaze
With fixed gaze
Awaiting His returning
"One White Throne To The Other"
John asked you to come quickly, to come with haste
I ask that you wait until I’ve dumped my waste
O Lord please don’t be in a rush to capture
I would prefer to flush before the rapture
And when comes your determined day and hour
Please let me have finished taking my shower
When those left behind have time to think of me
I’d like it to be without the stink of me
I ask that you wait until I’ve dumped my waste
O Lord please don’t be in a rush to capture
I would prefer to flush before the rapture
And when comes your determined day and hour
Please let me have finished taking my shower
When those left behind have time to think of me
I’d like it to be without the stink of me

"Call Of The Great Sea"
To me! To me!
Beckons the Great Sea
To me! To me!
You ships of Tarshish
Return to your vows
You prophets errant
Keep your new vows
You pagans penitent
The time is near
The time is come
It’s been three years
Bring your sons
Load your silver
Cart your gold
Bring your apes
Shine your stones
You kings of the isles
You merchants of the sea
Higher than any mountain
I wish you could see
Search the whole sea
Seeking the city Zion
Never will find it
Unless you’re right on
To me! To me!
You sons of Tarshish
Even with your expertise
Repent! Turn to Me!
