The Watchman's Call The watchmen stood in days of old Upon the walls in heat and cold Always alert, always prepared For the enemy hidden there They lifted their trumpets high in the air And sounded the warning no time to spare The raging battle left many dead The city was safe many prayers...

Turn This Devil Away I don't even know You Yet I hear You speak my name Saying I was thought of Long before I came Sunny days or dark I find shadows on my heart A feeling pulls me down Is this what life’s about? No one knows the burden This silent pain I bear Searching for a place to hide...

Written in Red The old Bible lay on the shelf Its golden letters faded and worn Words within offering help Its pages tattered and torn The words of a man named Jesus Love and peace He said Telling how much God loves us Each word written in red So long ago He climbed a hill His life to give...

The Miner Sweat is dripping from my weary brow I'll make it through this day somehow My ears are filled with the hammers ring My spirit's high and my heart does sing Chisels glistening in the flickering light No way to tell if it's day or night Half a mile from the air above Half a mile from...

Pages of My Life Today I was writing on a page of my life Things I had done, cheating and strife Each page was filled with lies and with hate I was trapped in my world, there was no escape Each day was adding more things I had done Again and again, one by one It was clear to see as I wrote...

The Stones Fell on Me The temptation was great And no one would see In secret I did it But the stones fell on me It was easy to hate him He was so different Words poured from my mouth But the stones fell on me The truth would tell all It was easier to just lie My tongue swore it true But the...

Leave It Unsaid The man hurled insults at me His anger was very great A devil told me to curse him But I chose to leave it unsaid My car took me far from home And then a mechanism broke A devil told me to curse it But I chose to leave it unsaid My foot slipped on the ice I fell and the pain...

True story.

The Forgotten Ant One day, I saw a large ant on the floor of my garage. It was covered with dust and did not look very well but it was alive. I suspected this ant was lost from its colony, where ever it was, and was dying. Perhaps a crumb of bread and a drink of water may ease the burden of...

Deceived I thought I was free But the Devil had me bound I thought I sang God's song But the Devil knew I was wrong I thought I was in the light I did not know I was blind I thought I was alive But then I saw I was dead I thought I understood In my blindness I was deceived I was certain I knew...

Matthew 23:1 Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples, Matthew 13:49 So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just, Matthew 24:3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately...

Should We Ponder the End of the World? Is too much time spent trying to determine when the end will come ? Even in the time of Jesus this was on their minds and they even asked Jesus about it. I'm not saying we should sit back in total ignorance and just wait for it to come upon us. The...

A Helping Hand When Joshua and men of Israel went out to fight with Amalek and his men, Moses stood on a hill overlooking the battle. When Moses held up the rod of the Lord, Israel began to win but when he...

I have spent the last few months living in the outer edge of the eye, sometimes brushing against the very wall that protects me, wondering if I will be sucked out by the sheer force of the storm and the weakness of my own faith. Yet, I manage to cling to Him.

I Have Followed You I have followed along after you, although most of the time I was rebellious, but still, I followed. You have tolerated me beyond reason especially when I kept looking back at the things I had done and planned to do them again. I was not the child a father could be proud of...

The End and a Beginning Darkness fell from the heavens And walked upon the Earth Confusing the minds of men Creating a desire to hurt The time has been given A sword is now in hand The innocent suffer and die When a devil roams the land Lions roar from the east Riding on tails of fire...

This is not a poem, not sure what to call it or where to put it so.................. Showdown It was like a scene from the...

You said: No, they aren't. I don't mean to sound macabre, but she is nothing but ashes and bones now.. Decayed flesh and bones. No eyes, no hands, no lips. Ok. I seem to have lost sight of whatever your point is here. I will say that I sincerely regret having posted in this forum, a mistake I...
