Making Melody
2-18-16

O, make melody
Music is a vital factor
Come a new song of praise
Choosing joy for the rest of my days
Don't ease me in
As thou saw that the stone is cut out
God sets up another kingdom
To rule with a rod of iron not mixt with clay
As we rolled out
Our captain fell in love
As trust faileth
He makes himself a prey
Putting on righteousness as a breastplate
With your Guinness all too new
Another handbill and time to kill
I'm amazed that I survived it
To but juxtapose
Clad with zeal as a cloak
And a need for another smoke
O, love the Lord, all of His saints
O, make melody....




Combing Deserts
2-18-16

Combing back my yellow hair
I ask farewell as trust faileth
In that I have stories to tell
Yes, there was no intercessor
She was giving me a break
Like a lady, like a dove
Hit it again and fill your cup
For tablet and pen now that I'm up
Turning it over to Genesis
I send famine not for bread
And thirst not for water
But for the hearing of the Word
So they run to and fro
To seek the Word and find it
Thou god, O Dan liveth
Come the manner of Beer-Sheba
Swearing by his sin of Samaria
Coming down from my misty mountain for safe keeping
O, smite the lintel of the door that posts shake
To hide ourselves in the top of Carmel....
