Quench
1-6-12


Rushing to the well to quench my thirst
Where the levee is no more dry
Given the sustenance to quench my parched nature
Of the flesh I'm still in bondage to
Given today what for so long
I seem to have been denied
Seeking redemption in making paths straight
Where I have erred and lied
And it is good to be with you again
In this place that for so long I have dwelled...








Enabled
1-6-12


Given the consciousness and vigilance
To be able to serve God in the answering of my phone and my door
Given the peace and consolation wherein my yesterday I have known
On all sides, war
Given the reward for a heart contrite
In making all that seems wrong as just and right
Slowing down the flow in the restraint of haste
Where today time is well spent in bible study
In that it won't go to waste
Given the ability and power that I no longer resist...










From Myself Delivered
1-6-12


There is purpose in interruptions
To the flow of the river
So that I might serve the purpose to make it
So that from myself God doth deliver
Choosing not to walk down the road that leads to the confusion
I have a need to be set free
From where it is good to reconcile
And justify the beating of my drum
To make some noise
So that I might proclaim
What is on the tip of my bolder tongue...








Soft Spot
1-6-12


God knows my soft spot
In things I ought not see in the night
That seem to bring the consolation
When it is finished
As peace is what I pray for
In storms of anticipation
Of things that have not come to pass
As a marvel over another digital image
Of a fair and fine lass
Still in bondage to this
Yet I know that God knows
And that's the way it goes...
