I’ve been in
A deep malaise
It’s gone on
For days

I lack any
motivation
I don’t feel
Any elation

I lost interest
In things I used to do
My depression
Hit out of the blue

I feel like
A beached whale
I wish in life’s ocean
I could sail

I would like to run
And laugh and play
Instead I face
Utter dismay

I hope one day
My mind will be whole
Until then
I live on the dole

Life with mental illness
It is no easy thing
I dream of Heaven
And the joy it will bring

The Virgin Mary
Held her newborn Son
Jesus the Savior
No room at the inn

In a manger
The Infant Jesus lay
The animals beheld
His majesty

Jesus is fully Man
And fully Divine
His first miracle
Turned water into wine

Jesus has never
Forsaken me
From sin
He set me free

Jesus died
On the cross
He gave up His Spirit
It was a great loss

On the third day, Jesus rose
Death could not hold Him
He resurrected instantly
This was not done on a whim

Jesus has power
Over death and sin
He was a powerful
Propitiation

When we are born again
Following repentance and belief
Jesus mediates salvation
Even for the good thief

If you wish to be saved
You must believe in Christ alone
And repent sincerely
It is for man that He did atone

Spread the gospel
Both near and far
It is life to those in darkness
Behold the Christmas star

On a cold winter night
I dreamt of the beach
I’ve never been there
It’s just beyond my reach

I travel the cosmos
Using a phased mind warp
I hear sweet music
It’s a harp

I have
A very active imagination
Since I was little
I daily seek sanctification

I want to fly
High above in a plane
But alas, I’m afraid of flight
I don’t want to go insane

I want to ride
A wild horse
But it’s too dangerous
Of course

I want to swim
In the ocean
But I’m scared
Of the motion

I will climb a tree
To see the park
If I go high enough
I’ll spot a lark

Jesus came
To earth
So man could have
The second birth

He came
From above
Because of
Jesus’ love

The image of God
Was lost in the Fall
It is restored
After the effectual call

Jesus took on human flesh
He incarnated as the God Man
Fully divine and fully man
It was according to God’s plan

God’s love for man
It is so pure and true
When Jesus saves us
There’s no sin He will eschew

At Calvary
Jesus paid the ultimate price
All our sins were imputed to Him
Jesus took on every vice

Once regenerated, all our sins
Are completely forgiven
Past, present, and future
To us, God’s mercy is given

Christ was born
On a holy night
His countenance
Shone bright

He is the eternal Logos
Second Person of the Trinity
He suffered and died
So man would be free

Free from Satan’s schemes
And the power of sin
The sinless Christ was
A true propitiation

Once regenerated
The Image of God is restored
Thanks to the atonement
Of Christ the Lord

I thank God
For His sovereign grace
It alone
Can save the human race

At Calvary Christ paid
The ultimate price
We are saved
From every vice

He ascended to Heaven
Christ will return
Those souls not in Him
In Hell they shall burn

Transubstantiation
It is erroneous, you see
Christ is sacrificed perpetually
It’s spiritual food only

Purgatory is
A deadly fiction completely
When we die, we go to
Heaven or hell immediately

It has sent billions to Hell
Baptismal regeneration
Infant baptism is false
It is an abomination

Millions perished due to
The Inquisition
A cruel and evil thing
It was a Satanic invention

The Catholic sacraments
Have no power to save a soul
Only those who are born again
Can escape Sheol

The virgin Mary conceived
After the Holy Spirit overshadowed her
After His birth, Joseph and Mary had
Other children, this much is clear

The Catholic so-called
Infallible magisterium
It is utterly false; they have no authority
It’s an exercise in delirium

I won’t attend
A Catholic mass
It is something
I will pass

We should confess directly to God
Confession to a priest
It is not found in Scripture
I like this the least

The pope is in no way
The vicar of Christ, you see
Many popes were wicked
It’s documented history

Mary was not immaculate
She was a sinner indeed
She needed her Son Christ
To be freed

Mary was not assumed
Into heaven at all
She is buried under a church
She was mortal

I smack it fast
I smack it slow
Smacking my belly
Is the way to go

I smack my belly
Hot and cold
Smacking it
Never grows old

I smack it at night
I smack it in the day
Smacking my belly
Makes me feel gay

I smack my belly lightly
And smack it strong
Smacking my belly
Is never wrong

I smack it
At Christmas, you see
Smacking my belly
Makes me feel free

I smack it
While I watch TV
Smacking my belly
Fills me with glee

I smack it during the summer
And winter too
Smaking it is something
I’ll never eschew

I dream of smacking it
While I sleep
If I can’t smack it
I’ll weep

I’ll smack it today
I’ll smack it tomorrow
If I don’t smack it
I’ll be full of sorrow

I love smacking my belly
I smack it with perfection
I will smack it forever
Smacking it is my obsession

Please listen
To my sad tale
I lie in bed all day
Like a beached whale

Often I feel blue
I have major depression
Energy I lack
It’s a tough situation

I have no motivation
I feel sad a lot
It seems my mind
Is in a knot

I may bark
Like a dog
Or squeal
Like a big hog

I will bray
Like a jackass
I won’t attend
A Catholic mass

I am as Reformed
As one can be
The Holy Spirit revealed
Every doctrinal mystery

I will flap my arms
And fly like a bird
Don’t think
That I’m absurd

I smack my gargantuan gut
During the day and night
Smacking it is
Always a delight

I am
An exalted being
Reality is much more
Than what you’re seeing

I have
Mastered time
My travels are
So sublime

I receive
Visions
God equipped me
With provisions

Some people
Call me crazy
My cognition
Is rather hazy

My dear sister Vi
Is a frisky pup
Tonight
She shall sup

I cut
Many a hot toot
They destroyed
Beirut

My behemoth belly
I love to smack
It is rotund
Fullness it doesn’t lack
