Come Thirsty

Sometimes I feel like I've been drained, And all my trials consume my brain, Even when I'm all alone, I still feel so distressed, My heart is pounding deep inside my chest, When from my burdens I need to find some rest, I come to You, I come to You, I come thirsty, And LORD, You fill me completely,...

All My Love

I see the sunshine and I know You made it just for me, I hear the birds sing and my heart joins them in harmony, And to know that this is just a shadow of what's yet to be, I feel Your love flow down in rain that washes over me, And oh, my LORD, I give my heart and soul to You, Oh, my God, I give...

Goodbye

Now it's time to say goodbye, I wish you didn't have to go, Even though I know it's for the best, I just can't help but feeling low, I know you lived a happy life, 64 years married to your angel, Seven children in the yard, 90 years, end of the road, But the journey's just beginning, As you leave us...

Bloom

Beautiful rose of prose, How your petals bloom, Through darkness and gloom, Beautiful rose. Pain and despair, How you fade away, When night comes day, Haste the day. For Marie-Claire. © 2006, Godflower Publishing Co., All Rights Reserved. Sign in to see full entry.

Surprise

You caught me by surprise, I never thought I'd hear you say those words, You threw me for a loop, I guess I just assumed you were born again, It's obvious that you know right from wrong, It's plain to see you know what's going on, The fight of your life is at a critical stage today. You had a tender... Sign in to see full entry.

Contact

New Mexico on Sunday, desert highway, lost on Monday, Searching for the answers, finding questions, shadow dancers, Gone by Friday, vultures on a dead-end highway, Can you help me? Can you save me? I need a contact, Someone from up above who can take me places that I've never been before, So now I'm... Sign in to see full entry.

What's Black and White and Red All Over?

He lies alone, a shadow of his former self, Struck down by the unfortunate reckless, He cannot smell, yet smell he does, No longer a threat, but still avoided, A black and white stain upon a black and white canvas, A macabre work of art, I suppose, Curious as I may be to study your carcass, Still I...

Benediction

Image source They say bad news travels quickly, By now you've probably heard, There's a red moon a'rising, Just like it says in the Word, This is a sign of the End-times, But, child of God, do not fear, There is hope for tomorrow, 'Cause Jesus soon will be here.
