Outside

I cannot contain
The searing pain
Of never having seen you last
My future looks dim
Going out on a whim
Graces attained while I fast

Nothing can take away
Anything I have gained
By way of love and peace
Those outside this day
Gnash their teeth and complain

Certainty

I know what’s in my Heart
A hidden treasure I have found
Delight of my soul
The Lord of Hosts resides

His love is beyond the cosmos
Beyond measure and sin
Thus it is mine to give
And I offer it freely to the world

But they deny it in person
Just as they deny it here
Everywhere I indeed know why
Uncertainty comes to mind

Well take a leap of faith then
That is what it is for
Breaking the barrier
Between the known and unknown

Decision

Oh I poured out my heart
My words in chalices fell
Left up to you to decide
To drink or pour out

But the brightness of the wonder and pain
Brought the earth to my knees
And Mercy came upon the earth
Subduing even the most wretched it seems

Calamity

Let the Lord touch you with His mercy
Let go of your evil inclinations
Allow the Spirit to move freely
To envelop you in His light
To dispel the darkness inside

Sound with the light of love
The Lord turns to us to face us
To protect us
To love us
To redeem us
In these darkest of times
For this calamity will spread like fire

Forewarned

The inkling that came
Arrived just the same
Untold mercy and love
This is not some game

But you play anyway
Thinking a certain way
But Graces are for God’s Glory
And loving each other, okay?

So perhaps it is as such
That you do not know how to love
Or refuse because you prefer to hate
Which is it then, ask yourselves

My Heart still bleeds profusely
That you be forewarned
Without repentance
Things always get worse

So Real

Poured my heart out
Could not ever doubt
That your love so ever real
Worked its way to seal

A love bound in blood
This heart is no dud
Still beating gloriously
And yours is lovely

But I would do away with it all
If love somehow does not find a way
Of finding me before it is too late
Our Father will have already answered
