forgiving isfreadom
Forgiving is freedom
oh.. How i long to forgive again,
this forgivness that releases me from pain,
oh.. how i long to forgive again,
to forgive in God's almighty name…
It means everything to forgive,
oh, the power to live,
it means everything to forgive,
oh, my Lord ..i want to live…
oh.. How i long to forgive again,
to be released from suffering pain,
oh, how i long to forgive again,
through God's almighty name…

The gods of men
Almost all men are dogs.
Over the ages men in fantasy have lavished;
All fair women would be ravished
If it were not for the gods.
The heart of man is evil.
Except for the bitter few;
whose hearts are renewed and who revile,
in the faith of the gods
All men are designed, the second primary permanency in mind
their false passport to feminine driven pleasure
except for those who peace;
with the gods do find.
Many men pursue strength,
to seize the enemies they face.
But there is no reprieve;
until the gods choose, to shower grace.
Clever men embrace, wisdom they think,
but wisdom they have not tasted;
until they from the simple cups
of the gods do drink.
Big men are great they believe,
until they realize, that to be great is to be weak.
Their greatness found, down on their knees;
and at the feet of the gods received.
All men are brave they think
conquering life on the high ride,
except when it is time to die,
and face their gods, in the eye.

Who Are We?
A burning question
A burning question for the soul,
What is it that makes us whole?
Is it the mud that we were made of?
Or was the mud there to give us form.
Is it the knowledge we get everyday?
Or is the knowledge there to drive us away.
Driving us away from knowing the truth.
He made us of his image
He breathed unto our nostrils
And a living soul rose from the mud
Who are we?
We are the creation of God
The souls of God, the mirrors of God
O! Lord God
Looking at your Wondrous Love
I am humbled,
Thus I am rooted in you.
Looking at your Wondrous Grace
I am blessed,
Thus I am thankful.
Believing in your Powerful Blood
I am cleansed,
Thus I am redeemed.
Believing in your Living Word
I am encouraged,
Thus I am strengthened.
Looking at your Creation
I am amazed,
Thus I am praiseful.
Accepting your Forgiveness
I am revived
Thus I am refreshed.
Whilst in Anguish
Whilst languishing in aguish
And still tainted and tarnished
He came to him and healed him
Now He’s applying that varnish
he was mentally diseased
Spiritually – deceased
A prisoner on death row with no chance for parole
A lonely druggie with scorn only for all holy
Infatuated by his state he lived for sin solely
You see, self was in control so sin owned his soul wholly
Yet through all this he knew he was living his life wrongly
he yearned to go freely but was gripped by sin strongly
Still the chasm inside affirmed he missed something sorely
'till one day whilst chasing my unimportant fun
The Omnipotent One spoke to me one on one
It’s Me you’ve been seeking since the days you were young
And every day the sun rose I was calling your name
I find you lame but I won’t leave you the same
Coz where you are not able, My love is more than able
Wherein sin had kept you hostage I’ve shattered the cage
Freedom is yours!
My son your ransom was paid the day I suffered on the cross and died in your place
Freedom is yours if you would just embrace My grace don’t waste this chance
Just think!
And you’d see it makes such sense
See…
I don’t know where you’ve been or what you believe
But miracles still happen; this one walks and talks
Though this book’s not done
It’s amazing how far we’ve come
Me… I’m just a lung but He is the air
Whereas I’m just a tap
He is the water
Isn’t that something?
Without Him I’m nothing
I am just a candle but He is the light
I am an ocean
He the waves and depth
I am a red rose but God
He's my beauty and scent
God our Guide
We stand here today threw the grace of Thee Almighty and his mercy.
Dear God as each day arrives with its challenges and departs with its achievements;
we ask Thee to help us as individuals, guide us as communities, strengthen us as countries and liberate us as nations of this world.
Dear God, guide the leaders of today, show the leaders of tomorrow and instill within the leaders to come, the righteousness, justice and truth which must be heard, as well as acknowledge the youth of today and fulfill the youth of tomorrow to attain all that is of purity and rid all that is conjured and deviating.
We ask Thee to unite all that is for Your oneness and redirect those who have been misled. Pursue those who have strived to becoming achievers and fulfill all that which is intended because….
Thy is the controller of all beings and the worlds. Oh God as each day passes with its calamities, give us the courage to condemn which is wrong,
defend which is truthful and grant contentment to those who have, and give perseverance to those in need. Because, Thou art the Almighty, all One….
