  • Melancholy

    I am depressed, you see
    I have such misery

    I lack motivation
    I don’t have elation

    I have a broken mind
    Healing, I must find

    I long to be whole
    I’m on the dole

    I often feel sad
    And sometimes I’m mad

    I take medication
    It helps my situation

    Mental illness is tough
    My mind’s state is rough

  • Animals

    I love animals
    Of every shape and size
    There are none I despise

    How I long
    To have pet dogs
    I even want hogs

    Send me felines
    And bunnies too
    No animals I eschew

    A pet hippo
    Would be nice
    Tigers suffice

    A dolphin
    Is great
    A chihuahua cleans his plate

    A grizzly bear
    It’s so fun
    Don’t shoot it with a gun

  • A Perfect Winter Day

    It’s a lovely winter day
    I feel rather gay

    It’s snowing
    Such a beautiful morning

    I see a blanket of white
    Millions of diamonds shining bright

    The air is very cold
    My journey is bold

    I saw my breath in the air
    Such a perfect winter’s day is rare

    I walk back home
    No longer will I roam

    I curl up by the fire
    I meditate on what did transpire

  • No Money Blues

    I am flat broke
    It’s no joke

    Money I need
    It starts with a seed

    All my funds
    Are moribunds

    I lack cash
    It’s worse than a rash

    I need some dough
    Let the money flow

    I pray that God will bless me
    I need financial prosperity

    I hope I will not lack
    I need cash by the stack

  • Storm

    Echoing down our street
    The thunder boomed
    It shook our home
    Then lightning loomed

    The bolts of plasma
    Struck all around
    The thunder made
    A deafening sound

    The rain was torrential
    The wind was strong
    I started singing
    A gospel song

    For a long time
    I watched the weather
    It was calming
    I felt better

    The storm passed
    The air smelled fresh
    I soon felt
    A refresh

  • Spring

    I walk
    In the spring rain
    It helps me stay sane

    I hike
    To the mountain top
    I’ll go until I stop

    I breath
    Very deep
    The hill is steep

    I think
    Of my childhood
    Memories highly valued

    I run
    In the fields of grass
    I met a beautiful lass

    I climb
    Up a tree
    I feel free

    I sleep
    And dream all night
    It was a delight

  • Good News of Christ the Lord

    Jesus came to earth
    To give man a second birth

    In the manger, Jesus did lie
    The three wise men stopped by

    He was free from all sin
    Jesus would be our propitiation

    On the cross, He hung
    His praises man has sung

    Jesus bore God’s full wrath
    That was His path

    His blood saved us all
    Thank God for the effectual call

    On the third day, Jesus rose, you see
    He defeated Satan, death, and sin completely

    For sure is the Elect’s salvation
    We’re predestined by God for liberation

    We are free from the bondage of sin
    In Christ, we win

    Those who are born again
    We shall praise God, that’s our refrain

  • The New Birth

    Man’s election
    Is due to
    Christ’s perfection
    He is the Messiah

    Through God’s graciousness
    Our sin is imputed to Christ
    His perfect righteousness
    We receive

    We are born from above
    Christ suffered and died
    Out of love
    We’re born again

    The natural man
    Is spiritually dead
    Christ followed God’s plan
    When regenerated, we become alive

    We receive faith and repentance
    After the Holy Spirit quickens our souls
    It isn’t by happenstance
    We, the Elect, were predestined to salvation

  • The Gospel: Briefly Stated

    Jesus bled
    In our stead

    He bore God’s wrath
    That was His path

    He took His last breath
    Christ wasn’t defeated by death

    He did not lie in repose
    On the third day, Christ rose

    He defeated Satan, death, and sin
    His death was a propitiation

    We’ll live with Christ in heaven
    Of this I am certain

    God regenerates a dead soul
    We receive eternal life in full

    We are gifted faith and repentance
    Through Christ alone we gain acceptance

    We are born again
    A new creation, no longer a prisoner of sin
