Month: April 2021

Snap my fingers and silence fills the room
Project like a projector, doom
Not as punishment but warning
Been this way from the beginning

Now the world is weeping
The losses unimaginably heaping
Frustration settles like an unwelcome visitor
Instigating and insinuating like an inquisitor

Despite what comes and is waiting
Spreading rumours and somehow relating
The love with which we are given in deeds
Are actually hidden in the creeds

It never occurred to me that you would be listening
I shone my light as often as it is bright
Knowing I am never alone amidst this tortuous fright
Takes me places you have never been
Until I come to from my sufferings
It is out of my hands again
My world turned upside down
Hoping for the better I do know the way
Rhythmically despite dismay
Your voice reigns like a queen
My Kingdom so far away from me
I plead for mercy
While everyone wastes away

Today I am suffering again
Intense agony and pain
Nothing I can do
Offering it all for you

The joy it brings me
To do such a thing is free
Hoping to hook your loving kindness
Into actionable wiseness

Your song inspired me
It is good and endearing
Receive my blessings from up on high
Poured out for God’s glory like sunshine

Look beyond the sky up above
To find the answers you seek
Look down upon the mountains below
That somehow God has made them low

I know I reached the summit
But did not stay there and was lifted away
Far from the world I lived
Since then I was dead

Your love is good and I love to say
That I wish you a life full today
Never broken up over your situation
I will love you into fruition

You do not reside where the world thinks you belong
Your mere words turned love into a song
Over and over I say
Love me today

My hope is that this will reach you
Without any effort but love to ensue
Opening a rift in time and space
I love to just look upon your face
Content since the beginning
My heart procured a diamond ring

I played your song on repeat
Absorbed by your graces so neat
Wondered at what you gain
Given unto others the same

So take those graces not for granted
Amidst a world so very slanted
I twirl your love in my fingers
Hoping the elation I feel lingers

I have got so much on my heart
Is that really such a way to start?
That you’ve got the love that lasts
Born this way and someone that fasts

You do not need a book to learn
An act of love, this you must discern
Kindness beams the showering goodness
Someday we will be, your highness

Now I am in your consolation
Surprised by your devotion
Everywhere comes a notion
To address a nation

Words to etch on my heart
Echoing forgiveness that is smart
Never alone despite being abandoned
Still loving and living to understand

So you struck a chord by your guitar
Understood what it meant to convey
Love despite the dismay

The joy you gift by the way
Should not be hidden, I think
Showing a graceful existence
Is enough to lead a prosperous life

What I see I keep to myself
Not just some book on a shelf
Treasured like sunshine’s rays
Gonna be here very long days

Pierced through and through
I mean to dare to dream too
So many different faces
Taking me to lovely places

My hope for you always still
Like a stone foundation
Waiting with a patient thrill

I dreamt of you oh so very still
Except the wind blowing in your hair
Seeing you gave my heart a shrill

I rejoice at your favour
Since the very beginning love
Became a flower to savour

Now I shake the earth with dismay
Waking up those sleeping giants
Ready to fight the onslaught of hate

So show me your best aim today
Aim for the heart of the matter
Remember that love finds a way

Open your eyes
Came the whispers that were sighs
Felt like darkness around me
Silent light from within me

Looking up to see the night sky
To see that I stand small
So I shall simply fly
Among the giants of love I rely

It was the Love of the Father
That raised the Son from the Dead
Mercy came when Christ forgave us
Perfecting us under His wing
Making us indistinguishable from Himself
So when we are caught up in His whirlwind of Fire
We will survive the face of God and live

So I stood firm my ground
With the Spirit’s sheltering sound
An uprising set before me
Something you will soon see
That the love of a King
Can not be outdone in a ring
Not meant for the kind of battles you seek
Mine is simple and real as your cheek
Which would be slapped to wake you up
So instead you should be standing up
But Love is the answer for your brains
And my words are in chains

Sacrificed so much for love
Left behind gorgeous love
Felt the shadow beneath me
Whilst rising from the dead

Met with haste
Just a taste
Something we faced
It was God’s Glory we chased

To this tune we sing
Better than a diamond ring
Brought together by a new story
Chasing hearts for glory

So convince me of your will
Is it greater than God’s?
My question remains not for me
Truth comes out eventually

She still surrounds herself with silence
With this love she is sitting on the fence
Indecision prevails but changed lives are churned
For some reason solo is preferred

I chose not to hide my love
But was choked for it
Choked by her silence as though I were dead
It was indeed something I said

I take one look at the world
And find that you people pay money
To spread and read hate
No wonder you are all divided
Keep it up
There will be nothing left
Fight back by spreading acts of love
Kindness that can break even stone hearts
