"I Have My Being"

I’ve built up an indelible façade
So glad you love me, God

You see right through me
But still you come unto me

I’m done in, this “me” you’ve undone
Shared your life, gave up your son

A vapor in the wind am I
Here one moment, then I fly

Because of unveiled lovely face,
I revive, breathing in your grace

I may only be a moment
But I’m yours, and that’s worth it

It’s on you that I must lean
And through you, Lord, I have my being

"Climax"

pursued with patience
hugged by hope
caressed from the cross
kissed by kindness
warmed by wisdom
groped by grace
aroused by atonement
flushed by faith
pulsing with peace
ravished by righteousness
glistening with glory
held by holiness
seduced by my Savior

"Aisle Seven"

Super special deals
On funny wax lips
And toys with wheels
How about some tater chips?

From football snacks
To novels and whodunits
Fancy new backpacks
And those new whatchamacallits

“As seen on TV”
This game is lots of fun
Buy two and get one free?
I just have to have one!

My cart is full
(Even got a robe of fake silk)
And now I feel a fool—
Only wanted one gallon of milk

"Jesus Is Lord"

From straw-lined cave
To shattered grave
Jesus is Lord

From borrowed manger
To Emmaus stranger
Jesus is Lord

From virgin womb
To empty tomb
Jesus is Lord

From miraculous birth
To three days in the earth
Jesus is Lord

From light's first glory
To the end of His story
Jesus is Lord

From before creation
To after Revelation
Lord Jesus is
