Cosmic Sabbath

I have struggled with what weighs heavily against me
No longer chanting what the world must see
The chance to live under Christ’s reign forever
Will be gone for you as fast as it did enter

I know from whence comes God’s wrath
After preparing us for our cosmic Sabbath
A purge to destroy all of the wicked
To also spare those who to His will they submitted

What I have seen I have written for all
It reminds of the time you stood so very tall
A gleam of hope in a world full of hate
God has given you a heavenly trait

To be used by one such as you
To reveal the truth that will ensue
A prophet’s word wrapped in God’s might
Did not mean to trigger in you a fright

History

I am trapped in endless suffering
Collapsed in a heap of offering
A kind of love never understood until now
I give myself over and over, that is how

My immortal soul and now my body
Bound together and out of love embody
The truth of love without exception
To be in love’s wondrous reception

I warn now against your actions
Now all broken up and in factions
That any death by violence is abhorrent
In the eyes of God so here comes a torrent

It was with a bow and a great Amen
And only one knows when
That love returned as Love for all eternity
No one believes, not even the fraternity

But I will never insist and only hint in rhyme
At what truth rests sealed in the history of time
My burning desire is not even my own
But the many seeds I planted have really grown

Shivers

I stood up for myself for my stance with the Lord
But I left them all without saying a word
Did not want to say something I would regret
Love has it’s hold on me and His I get

Had enough of the insolence I found
Despite that ever seeking devil’s hound
I wrench completely free from strife
To be raised up into Eternal Life

I do not impose my beliefs that are higher
But often I am scorned, hated, or called a liar
They do not understand the reality He delivers
The kind of move that gives you shivers

River

Jesus held me close while I wept a river of tears
Reaching deep within and dispelling all of my fears
Restoring hope that was once lost
Hope that came at an extraordinary cost

The pain and suffering caused, I was raised above
To a point past transgressions turned into love
You took my breath away by your immense grace
Knowing our worst we will have to face

Before Him forgiveness brings praise and laud
I know I am the least and worst before God
Sustained by grace alone we are not afraid
For the truth is in the prayer we prayed

Ripple

I have seen time ripple like a stone into a pond
The moment my fist met the face of my enemy
Did not realize the strength inside
Was much greater than what I thought I had

From then on I let my heart lead me to love’s desire
Never met with violence ever again
Saw the deepness of your love and wanted more
What it takes is what love is all about

Clearly I am under your spell, I can say
And those ripples came to haunt me
Gentleness and kindness went a long way
But soon those ripples turned into waves

Captivating me into a kind of dream
Able to let myself go and not worry about anything
Was what came from your soothing voice and light
As the future of the world is at stake it seems

Just wish you could hear my voice and see my light
But the powers that be ignore what’s written here
Fearing the worst they would rather save face
Than to allow the Lord to work through grace

Surprise

What I have seen with unseen eyes
Is a look into a heavenly surprise
A joy that raptures my heart so ferociously
Taking me places I have been so graciously

My sadness extends well beyond the eons of time
Up to heaven I will be lifted so as to climb
And reach beyond top of the highest mountain
I remember the moment I drank from the fountain

That rush of divine fire filled my veins
As I stood over my heart His love reigns
It came the moment of the surprise
That moment I got a look in your eyes

Disease

I suffer from a disease that only delivers pain
Given the levels I have endured I should be insane
It would drive anyone to madness right away
For me, it is just another day

No one understands this relentless suffering
What it does to the mind sounds like an offering
But truth be told I always feel abandoned
Alone, feeling like it is the end

But I look in a mirror and I have not aged
Inside what I am feeling must be caged
I must be dead already but I remain standing
Even though I used to jump the landing

I forged a path by way of Father’s love and mercy
Dreamt I was free of this unreal controversy
One that I created out of desperation
And only ended up feeling like a laceration

My gloom is not to bring you down with me
But rather entice with the hope of mercy
For you to do what is right by way of love no less
Love connections are never meaningless

Grief

First thing to reveal is that my words are
Because it is through God that I am not far
Never thought I would be barely hanging onto life
But evil has a way to bring me nothing but strife

I have already processed the greatest Grief
To lose the ones I love like a Chief
But it never really leaves you, does it?
The triggers and the reminders amidst the grit

Remember that truth matters just for the sake of it
The truth about life and death is they split
About as graceful as a tree hit by lightning
See, I won the prize but was never first to sing

Cryptic

She has delighted me from the beginning
Of course I am cryptic as to who about I sing
Her love, to receive it incites true joy
Never part of some sinister ploy

I have a handle on this rush of a ride
It will always be her, I will confide
To take her by the hand and raise her from the dead
For with me she still has yet to break bread

No one understands this is not surreal
This is not some sort of appeal
It is not the acceptance of a loss so great
But that her love is worth the wait

Oblation

I drained all my life into the world for God
Some people find this really very odd
Why would I sacrifice such a treasure
As all of this I know that I am sure
Not because of some revelation
But because of the actual oblation
As I glean tidbits from these inklings
I walk alone as I walk among kings
A king because of the laying on of hands
Given the authority over distant lands
With you I can honestly say that I tried
For rising from the dead was implied

My Torment

Oh God she is beautiful like the sun
So bright and cheerful and then some
I want her to love me the way I do her
On this love to my Lord I must confer

My torment awaits me as I gaze into her eyes
It is as difficult as the word implies
A painful awareness of an absence long forgotten
A love so distinguished it stands like a mountain

A powerful awareness is cresting at the top
That things are not what they seem so they stop
I will adhere to a certain and powerful vow
To bring forth love in the darkest of places is how

Fulfilled

Fulfilled in purpose I welcome the end
All my love is all to you I can send
So great is this heart in love with yours
That unlike ever before I open these doors

Anything you ask it is within my right to refuse
But no one has asked me anything giving me blues
I venture on like nothing happened
Carrying a massive weight coming around the bend

Dreaming of love’s graceful embrace I feel
I whisper I love you in your ear to seal
That leaping heart you will feel when I do
Oh Heaven knows this love is true

Heights

I jumped from the heights of glory
Never thought I was done with this story
Oh, what He has in wait for His own
A love so glorious you will indeed be shown

So I carve out into the cosmos a divine word
In my heart something magnificent stirred
Creating new life by His power alone
A gift nonetheless we condone

There is a place for those who destroy
It is certainly not Heaven by any kind of ploy
My staff struck the ground and it shook
But I did not do that to make you look

Love in Adoration

Inspired by your Love I adore you
Despite the madness all around
I know I am safe and sound
So run with me to the finish line

Do not ignore those who flail about
I dream of your song permeating my soul
I hide nothing, ask me anything, I am sold
On your divine love that only I can see

I kindle this fire of mine as a beacon
A light in the darkness to shine bright
So bright that evil will put up a fight
Because they sought to destroy your love

Relic

Your will is to harm despite the call for peace
Your will is to divide so you can conquer with ease
Your will is to fill yourselves with riches over the poor
Your will is to cause illness to your enemies

But those ways are not the ways of the Lord
His ways are but a command we must obey
His ways are of healing and reconciliation
He does not demand sacrifice be made

Those who do sacrifice for the greater glory of God
Where they gave up what they held most dear
Let go of what bound them here by twisted lies
And entered into the glory of God by way of love

They join in a chorus of a new song sung to the Lord
Praise be to the Lord and glory be on high!
I indeed have found the Lord throughout eternity
Upon His return I valued His generosity

Let it be known that I am the invisible witness
Of the things that are to come to pass
But also keeper of the things that have passed
My soul and spirit retain everything like a book

So it matters not who I am or where I am from
My words, a relic invested in time
Because it felt like shattering glass
The moment her eyes met with mine

But seeing Him nailed upon that mighty Cross
Has me feeling the totality of complete loss
Measured across eons infinitely beyond time
In a place beyond this blink of existence we can see

Daze

I am drenched in pain and suffering
Every movement I am numb in feeling
Walking through walls in dreams while awake
In a daze, not confused for your sake

Like being struck by lightning from above
I realized my error and that you are my love
So many sacrifices made keeping me sane
And my heart renders this passionate flame

I yearn for your love in response
A feeling that gets stronger over all my wants
Like we were meant for each other in every way
Wrestling with the visions that made me sway

Worst Kind

My dreams, the ones that I ponder
Take me to places of divine wonder
Spinning around in sync with the earth
Spending time with friends around the hearth

Look at the forge before you without haste
And know that with the Lord He does not waste
A precious moment that tugs on a heart so dear
Telling them gently to have nothing to fear

I myself can offer nothing across the whole span
But the one who resides within me wholly can
Washing away the dead that reign
And breaking their colossal chain

It is enslavement of the worst kind
Bowing to an ideology they think can find
Never reaching that forever far reaching summit
Not just throwing it out there for the wit

Mythical

I have this urge to love you
Some do not wish it to be true
But this urge does not stop
Nor do I want it to, lest it flop

I wish you understood the meaning
About your feelings or you would not be concealing
The things I have sacrificed but did not have to
And to those whom I have lost, I will remember you

These living words blessed from within
I had hoped by now lifted your chin
To see you standing up in honour and glory
This is not just some mythical story

Duty

My Heart slowed down
So that I would not drown
In your tears of sadness
When there should be gladness

I have never meant harm
Only meant to disarm
Those from their evil deeds
By planting love like seeds

When many years have passed
Love is still a great heavenly blast
There is still such great joy in your beauty
To inform you of this is my duty

Eons

I connect myself to the all
Knowing the truth since the fall
A certain power given to me
I wrote and became totally free

So you can read the truth as it forms
Into a world totally void of storms
A place to belong to and never be destroyed
No matter where you were once employed

I see the truth in what inspires and motivates you
But it only lasts so long before it us of no use
Then it is but an echo of a memory long forgotten
So see the conscious light of God’s begotten

You wanted me to follow you
But that I really cannot do
As the eons between these pages
Carve out a journey through the ages
