When I rise
In the morn
I praise the Lord
Even if feeling forlorn

I put on
My spiritual armor
Equipped fully
And thank the Father

Demons
I shall slay
It happens
Every day

My mind
Is complex
A witch tried
To give me a hex

I fight
The dark
I dream of daylight
I hit the mark

Sigh no more
We depart
For the
Celestial shore
It is sin
I abhor
I desire to
Sin no more

My sister Vi
Is out of sight
She helps me
Often
She’s a pure
Delight
She made
My bed tonight

We trust
In Christ alone
His radiance
Has shone
In Him
We are free
No more
Misery

We pray
For America
She has
Lost her way
Once close
To God
She is now
Far away

Repentance
Is needed
For us
To once more
Be
That shining
City
Upon a hill

My dear sister Vi
Is the best
Cleaning and cooking
While I rest

She is selfless
And caring too
I’m truly thankful
She made me lamb stew

Vi doesn’t complain
She works so hard
She cooks all the time
But she doesn’t use lard

She helps me
With my meds
She even makes sure
To make our beds

I would be lost
Without her aid
I love her so much
She is more than a maid

No task great or small
Does Vi eschew
Dearest sister
I love living with you

Easter is here
Celebrating Jesus’s resurrection
Time for cheer

Christ died on the cross
He bore God’s full wrath
It seemed a great loss

But on the third day He rose
Defeating death, sin and Satan
Was liberated from death’s throes

Christ died for you and me
He was our perfect sinless sacrifice
His sovereign grace sets man free

How are we saved you inquire
We are chosen by God
Born again not by our desire

Oh profligate man your sin is immense
Our federal head Adam fell and so did we
God requires a recompense

God provides a way of salvation
Repent of your sin sincerely
Believe the gospel without reservation

So be born from above
By the power of the Holy Spirit
You are saved because of God’s love

The sun is shining today
I feel totally gay

I’m as happy as a lark
If I get mad I’ll bark

I will lay in bed
And rest my weary head

I lost my mind long ago
My psychosis does show

I have delusions too
The bad ones I eschew

I long to run and play
I can’t much to my dismay

Someday I’ll be well
I’ll walk and feel swell

As for now I count the time
I read and rhyme

Satan
The archangel
Fell
Due to pride
He rebelled
Against God
And was
Cast down
He tries
To ensnare us
In sin
Of every kind
Satan hates
God’s children
But we are
Overcomers
In Christ
Satan was
Defeated
When Jesus
Resurrected
In Christ
We have
The victory
We must say
The Lord
Rebuke you
When that
Old adversary
Comes our way
With the
Mind of Christ
We are secure
From Satan’s
Stratagems

Man stood condemned
No hope was found
We’d die and go to Hell
Guilty of sin
Our bodies in the ground

But everything changed
When Jesus was born
The Messiah came to save us
Born to Mary a humble virgin
On that cold Christmas morn

God predestined for salvation
A number of Elect
Sovereign grace would save us
Chosen before the world’s foundation
In Christ we stand before God perfect

Christ was born to die
He was tortured
And suffered immense pain
And hung on the cross
For 6 hours He labored

Then Christ gave up His spirit
The spotless Lamb died for our sin
He bore God’s full wrath
Even though He had no sin Himself
Christ was a propitiation

But death could not hold Him
On the third day Christ rose
Trampling down sin and death
And the power of Satan
It is mankind God chose

Salvation is the work of God
He alone chooses man
The Holy Spirit quickens our dead hearts
Imparts repentance and faith
According to His plan

On life’s ocean
I am rowing
Do you perceive truth
Or are you not knowing

Study from the simple
To the complex
Being content
I don’t need sex

I am not
A base animal
Ruled by passions
My mind is mathematical

I am in union with Christ
Weak on my own
In Him I am strong
I bow before His throne

Mental maladies
Afflict me every day
I am rather insane
But I’m usually gay

I will trust in Christ
And eschew wickedness
He took on my sins
I have His righteousness
