SELECTED POETRY

Perpetual

 


Perpetual man


Perpetual, man your time is spent


Perpetual, man how you are dead and gone


And you did what you could, therefore repent.


 


Perpetual man


Perpetual, man fell from heaven to hell


Perpetual, man how you condemned all


In hell for you to dwell.


 


Perpetual God


Perpetual, God gave goodness and his promise made


Perpetual, God how he sent his Son doubtless


Our sins to be redressed, be not afraid.


 


Perpetual angels


Perpetual, angels on golden wings


Perpetual, angels sung praises to our King


And peace to our living, with goodwill.


 


Perpetual shepherds


Perpetual, shepherds amazed to hear angels sing


Perpetual, shepherds amazed how it should come to pass


That the Messiah should be our King.


 


Perpetual birth


Perpetual, birth the shepherds to see


Perpetual, birth did happen, it was so


Whether the Messiah was born to set man free.


 


Perpetual Messiah


Perpetual, Messiah so he came to past


Perpetual, Messiah was found a babe where he lay


In the manger wrapped in hay, so poor he was.


 


Perpetual born


Perpetual, born for man’s own sake


Perpetual, born for us that we were forlorn


And thereby took no scorn, our flesh to take.


 


Perpetual God


Perpetual, God always, with a heart so forgiving


Perpetual, God always, for this our best day


Let all of us sing praise.

Listen to the Flowing River
 


The fisherman used to cast his line into the running water


 

And take what the flowing river allowed him to receive


 

Now he’s watching as the pollutants slaughter


 

No longer can he wade out from the shore, a time to grieve.


 

He looks down on the river sadly mourning


 

Detests the modern world that lives within


 

The river’s surface shadows a simple warning


 

A positive transformation must begin.


 

We must close our eyes and listen to the flowing river


 

We must open up our hearts and take one more chance


 

To take a stand, don’t yield, don’t quiver


 

Make a choice not to live in this world as victims of circumstance.


 

No longer watch as acid rain continues to pour down – to sorrow


 

Should not let our expectations fill with fear


 

Everyone look out to new horizons on the morrow


 

The lamp of knowledge is coming here.


 

Let the rejoicing ring out in the heartland


 

And thank the Lord and pour blessings on his name, amen


 

May the future be true for our sons and daughters – delivered with a helping hand


 

Listen to the flowing river as the fish swim upstream once again.
