" Attaining Tranquility "
Receiving a wealth of information My IQ has undoubtedly risen, But there's no amount of higher learning That could set my soul free from this prison.

" Our Desirable Goal "
To measure success by victory Must require significant conceit, For throughout this life it's certain We're going to be tasting defeat. Society says we're all winners Just channel the champion within, For all it will take is commitment And a little bit of discipline. Muster self respect and...

" A myriad of Names "
He shall be called Immanuel The Bright Morning star still shining. A Prophet a Priest our Rock, Salvation, his cross defining. He's our Advocate, and Shepherd Resurrection, and Lord of Lord's. A most faithful and true Witness Whose love broke iniquity's cords. He's the Lamb of God, and Bridegroom...

" America's Spectrum "
Jesus becoming less and less With the devil gaining his ground, The church professing how their blessed While God's lost are still not found. Ozone layer looks depleted With the ice caps quickly melting, Ocean temps are overheated As hurricane winds come pelting. With scientific rhetoric Now...

" Take Up Your Cross "
Though my path appears tumultuous With misfortune littering the way. I embrace the truth found in scripture Ascertaining peace through life's melee.

" Offering Grace "
Each step she takes brings constant pain Every night brings cold's shiver. Dark underpass out of the rain Is all this city will give her.

Logistically speaking A new course was plotted, The sails redirected All the rope lines knotted. A Northeastern zephyr On a morning so still, Would pronounce the great change To a sea so tranquil.
