Anger zone

 There exists a zone in the mind of man 

The injured, broken brain 

Flare fire red, dumb and dead

We walk in there again 

Anger zone, a pit

Anger zone, it’s lit 🔥 

Feels like we’re stuck on a bullet train 

No escape, won’t stop 

Feel like there’s an end just round the bend 

Recite relief from The Top

Anger zone, a pit

Anger zone, it’s lit 🔥 

Top never fails, Top is just there 

He knows your way off, your release

He knows what to do cause He’s been there too

Through trust He’s your perfect peace. 

Isaiah 26:3

You will keep in perfect peace

those whose minds are steadfast,

because they trust in you.

Is Jesus Christ?

 Most important question asked in life 

Answer names your resting place 

We start at birth belonging to earth 

From faith we’re face to Face

Everything comes from Him in His story 

from the start He’s all above

Everything returns to Him in His glory 

Ends up Christ is Love

What shall we say to such a glorious Love

Possibly offer Supreme

Has to be Honor, serve , & speak out 

Tell others of our redeem

No question Jesus died on earth 

Evidence at hand abounds 

Resurrection draws direction 

Voice from heaven sounds 

If Jesus claimed just manhood 

We’d understand His story 

What we find odd, His claim as God 

Why wait to see in Glory?

Is, after all, His stated name 

The Voice said, “You are my Son”

During our days, do we believe when He says 

“I and the Father are One”.

John 10:30

I and the Father are one.”

Luke 3:21-22

The Baptism of Jesus

When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as he was praying, heaven was opened and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: “You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased.”

John 3:31

The one who comes from above is above all; the one who is from the earth belongs to the earth, and speaks as one from the earth. The one who comes from heaven is above all.

In Quiet I trust

 His Spirit still speaks, says same things 

Repentance and rest remain real 

On Him we rely, we live then we die 

Be willing, His Spirit's our seal 

Wake up, settle, in quiet's where He speaks 

Delight in the day as we trust 

He's there for us too, our days are but few 

Jesus, both loving and just 

We're never alone, He's with us in quiet 

May seem alone but He's there 

May be dismal and dark, alone in garden park 

Jesus sweat blood for our prayer

Wake up, settle, in quiet's where He speaks 

Delight in the day as we trust 

He's there for us too, our days are but few 

Jesus, both loving and just 

Wake up, settle, in quiet's where He speaks 

Delight in the day as we trust 

He's there for us too, our days are but few 

Jesus, both loving and just.

Isaiah 30:15 (KJV)

15 For thus said the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel, “In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and in trust shall be your strength.” But you were unwilling.

Mark 1:35 (KJV)

35 And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.

Reformation over ritual

 It’s a tough test sharing  what you have

Working  honest and well 

He knows your intent, Being content 

Hoists you to heaven from hell 

It’s a tough, old world and His plans are in place 

His Words are a’plenty, not few

With Christ in your heart, you doing your part

He covers, descending like dew

We ourselves are the tender plants 

He Himself is the rain 

We all now know, alone we can’t grow 

His power pushes us up through the pain 

It’s a tough, old world and His plans are in place 

His Words are a’plenty, not few

With Christ in your heart, you doing your part

He covers, descending like dew

It’s a tough, old world and His plans are in place 

His Words are a’plenty, not few

With Christ in your heart, you doing your part

He covers, descending like dew.

Deuteronomy 32:1-2

Listen, you heavens, and I will speak;

hear, you earth, the words of my mouth.

Let my teaching fall like rain

and my words descend like dew,

like showers on new grass,

like abundant rain on tender plants.

Blindfold

 We can’t blindfold God

If hiding, He sees through 

May seem like shafted, Christ has crafted 

Special purpose for you 

Don’t be Judas, showed up for last supper 

Knew what he did and took part

Gave his instruction, doomed to destruction 

Sought Christ for his purse, not heart

We face the same choice, We can turn Jesus in 

Look away while they spit and strike Him

Be it bag or purse, we’re not under His curse 

We’re built up and blessed to be like Him

If you’re alive, your purpose still stands 

It’s walking right here on the ground 

Omniscient, He’ll see, He waits ‘til you’re free

Seek Him while He still can be found.

Mark 14:65

Then some began to spit at him; they blindfolded him, struck him with their fists, and said, “Prophesy!” And the guards took him and beat him.

Romans 9:21

Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for special purposes and some for common use?

Deuteronomy 21:22-23

If someone guilty of a capital offense is put to death and their body is exposed on a pole, you must not leave the body hanging on the pole overnight. Be sure to bury it that same day, because anyone who is hung on a pole is under God’s curse. You must not desecrate the land the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance.

The Elect

 We are sinners saved by grace

We’ve searched and found The Light 

We don’t know how, we just know now

We’ve found The Way that’s right

We are the elect

We’re here to direct 

You’ve told us all ahead of time 

Won’t let the false infect 

The Way that is before us 

Beautiful, bright, unbent

Had we our way, our minds may say 

These gods are heaven sent 

We are the elect

We’re here to direct 

You’ve told us all ahead of time 

Won’t let the false infect 

We are the elect

We’re here to direct 

You’ve told us all ahead of time 

Won’t let the false infect.

Deuteronomy 12:30

and after they have been destroyed before you, be careful not to be ensnared by inquiring about their gods, saying, “How do these nations serve their gods? We will do the same.”

Mark 13:20-23

“If the Lord had not cut short those days, no one would survive. But for the sake of the elect, whom he has chosen, he has shortened them. At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘Look, there he is!’ do not believe it. For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. So be on your guard; I have told you everything ahead of time.

Distance to Christ

 Isn’t it sweet that people have sight 

We see what animals don’t 

Our hearts fill with fear, we sense God is near 

Reach for Him, can’t see why we won’t 

What is plain to people, what we do see 

All of the bad stuff around 

If we were to pause, stop and look just because 

God and His goodness abound

Now to the point, the heart of the matter 

When God looks at us He sees Christ

On earth we’re in Him, in heaven we’re with Him

We’re free ‘cause He sacrificed 

What is plain to people, what we do see 

All of the bad stuff around 

If we were to pause, stop and look just because 

God and His goodness abound

What is plain to people, what we do see 

All of the bad stuff around 

If we were to pause, stop and look just because 

God and His goodness abound.

Mark 12:34

When Jesus saw that he had answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” And from then on no one dared ask him any more questions.

Acts 17:27-28

God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. ‘For in him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’

Knee deep

 Prayer is powerful, prayer is deep

He listens and He hears 

Jesus prayed, He could’ve stayed 

He rose to triumph through tears 

Can’t  see how high our prayers go 

It’s lowly on our knees

There’s dirt and mud, there’s sweat and blood 

God highly hears and sees

If we were to know where our prayers go 

We’d seek, we’d strive, we’d pray more 

Stand upright, think we reach a height 

On knees we’re realising way more 

Can’t  see how high our prayers go 

It’s lowly on our knees

There’s dirt and mud, there’s sweat and blood 

God highly hears and sees

Can’t  see how high our prayers go 

It’s lowly on our knees

There’s dirt and mud, there’s sweat and blood 

God highly hears and sees.

Matthew 26:36-38

Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.” He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee along with him, and he began to be sorrowful and troubled. Then he said to them, “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.”

Say what needs to be said

 We get hung up on fear it’s a loaded word 

We create all these rules to explain

I’ve done it too so I’ll keep my words few

Avoid verbose again

Say what needs to be said 

Only say what needs to be said 

The rest is just fluff and not needed

All of your days will forever be praise 

Your witness won’t be impeded

We’re all guilty, we’ve used all the words 

Our origin based in a book 

Look back from heaven, think you see seven 

Two words all that it took 

I believe 

I believe 

Say what needs to be said 

Only say what needs to be said 

The rest is just fluff and not needed

All of your days will forever be praise 

Your witness won’t be impeded

Say what needs to be said 

Only say what needs to be said 

The rest is just fluff and not needed

All of your days will forever be praise 

Your witness won’t be impeded.

Psalms 111:10

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom;

all who follow his precepts have good understanding.

To him belongs eternal praise.

Sometimes stoned

 Not daily like '88, escaping with a mate 

Daily direction, more than drugs 

Follow faith with saints, flee from those it taints 

God's arms outstretched with peaceful hugs

I choose direction, that way is up 

God is way above getting high 

Walk outside at night, Look up at all the Light 

He has all things for us in the sky 

He's real and He's speaking, 

He's always heard 

He's the One that's showing us the Way

Getting high is wasteful, don't be distasteful 

Never be lukewarm any day

I choose direction, that way is up 

God is way above getting high 

Walk outside at night, Look up at all the Light 

He has all things for us in the sky 

I choose direction, that way is up 

God is way above getting high 

Walk outside at night, Look up at all the Light 

He has all things for us in the sky.

2 Timothy 2:22 (KJV)

22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

Revelation 3:15-16 (KJV)

15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

Selfless service

 Is there a selfless service

Humanity blocks the way 

Our ego, means we go 

Our own way every day 

There is a selfless service

It’s proven, published, & priced

Humbles our humanity 

Death of Jesus Christ 

Our own choice to make here 

Will we serve our self

Give the cup, you look up 

Trophy on your shelf 

Trophy’s always been there 

Newly-minted with new self 

Alive, our Lord, our reward

His eternal shelf 

There is a selfless service

It’s proven, published, & priced

Humbles our humanity 

Death of Jesus Christ 

There is a selfless service

It’s proven, published, & priced

Humbles our humanity 

Death of Jesus Christ.

Mark 9:40-41

for whoever is not against us is for us. Truly I tell you, anyone who gives you a cup of water in my name because you belong to the Messiah will certainly not lose their reward.

Psalms 93:2

Your throne was established long ago;

you are from all eternity.

I will stay free

 The will  is such a strong point

Blends  both blessing and curse 

I must learn to use it, not let world abuse it

My future’s  a race car, not hearse

Free is a motion, free is a state 

Free is a land that’s worth willing 

Once you can see, you can will to stay free

Life is your land that’s worth filling 

I know what it ‘tis to be enslaven 

I’ve been bound before 

My will can falter, let worries alter 

My own heart can block the door 

The will can really shine here

We can put the right things in place 

God will sure seed it, use will to heed it

Good fruit will fill all the space 

Free is a motion, free is a state 

Free is a land that’s worth willing 

Once you can see, you can will to stay free

Life is your land that’s worth filling 

Free is a motion, free is a state 

Free is a land that’s worth willing 

Once you can see, you can will to stay free

Life is your land that’s worth filling.

Mark 4:19-20

but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth and the desires for other things come in and choke the word, making it unfruitful. Others, like seed sown on good soil, hear the word, accept it, and produce a crop—some thirty, some sixty, some a hundred times what was sown.”

Sluice

 He’s testing us, He’s fossicking

It’s rinse, if no, repeat

He knows best, takes time to test 

His hands fix our feet

If you’re alive you’re going through 

Like rivers , we’re full & cold 

He has to pull out all the pride 

Holds in Hand the gold 

We’re all the coin, the one lost sheep 

We’re all the baby brother 

He upholds our one earth life 

With Him, there is no other 

Like a sluice our lives are fluid 

He’s pouring us through gates 

The steps we take, our wills awake

Show who delights, who hates

If you’re alive you’re going through 

Like rivers , we’re full & cold 

He has to pull out all the pride 

Holds in Hand the gold 

If you’re alive you’re going through 

Like rivers , we’re full & cold 

He has to pull out all the pride 

Holds in Hand the gold. 

Psalms 37:23-24

The LORD makes firm the steps

of the one who delights in him;

though he may stumble, he will not fall,

for the LORD upholds him with his hand.

Proverbs 16:9

In their hearts humans plan their course,

but the LORD establishes their steps.

Weed & wheat

 We’ve grown up together 

Our lives have been entwined 

We’ve worked & played, seen good & bad times too

At end of day don’t want to say 

A long farewell to you 

It’s nice in the barn 

It’s hot in the fire 

I know where I wanna be 

Decisions on earth, new minds, new birth

Both lead to the land of the free

How can I bring you, drag you up with me 

I’m not hunter, gatherer, or farmer

I’m no herald, just saint, like to last but life can’t 

I’m just a crying alarmer

It’s nice in the barn 

It’s hot in the fire 

I know where I wanna be 

Decisions on earth, new minds, new birth

Both lead to the land of the free

It’s nice in the barn 

It’s hot in the fire 

I know where I wanna be 

Decisions on earth, new minds, new birth

Both lead to the land of the free.

Matthew 13:30

Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.’”
