Dollar Debate

It is a common saying,
That happiness is one thing
Which money cannot buy.

Although this be widespread knowlege,
This philosophy,
I must deny.

Why?

Because money does
Buy happiness,
For a fleeting while.

What is achieved is
A momentary excitement
And gleefulness -

Perhaps even a fading smile.

The Ride At Twilight

I slipped out
To the barn one night,
'Cause I just couldn't rest.

I slipped on my boots,
And on my hat,
And latched the door
Real tight.

Next I ran across the yard,
Down the lane,
And scaled the fence.

Once in the barn,
I switched on the light.
Then I saddled up my mare,
And rode into the night.

I rode hard,
We rode long,

The Master Spoke.

Why is the world here today?
The Master Spoke.
Why are we sinners, like sheep gone astray?
The Master Spoke.
Why all this toil, no comfort of Eden,
Since man didn't obey?
The Master Spoke.
Why work the dust of the ground, from whence we came,
And eat 'By the sweat of our brow? '
The Master Spoke.
Why do we, naturally,
Posess the desire to before,
God, want to worship and adore?
The Master Spoke.
Why is Jesus glorified,
And why, for sinners, did he die?
The Master Spoke.
Why shall God return again,
To take away Isreal, His bride?
Why me, a sinner, justified?

The Humbling / Parable of 'Kentucky Lucky

There once was a man,
Come from Kentucky.

He was the luckiest
Of the lucky.

He was better,
He was best.

He claimed to be higher
Than all the rest.

His favorite pastime
Was revelling in everything
He thought he knew.

Little did he relize,
He was about to recieve his due.

Am I?

Am I doing right?
Am I doing wrong?
What is the reason for this earth?
What is the importance of this life?
To whom do I belong?
Do I have any worth?
What is the solution to my strife?
How do I rid myself of my sin?

To these Questions,
Will I give,
The answer and reason,
For which to live?

Yes.
Yes I will.

Through God,
Will I,
My freedom win?

Kiss Me Not

I am waiting for the one,
Whom God had in mind
Before I breathed,

To share in the covenent of marraige,
Of true love and holy matrimony.

This man, pray he be worthy,
Of such a woman as me-
For my price is far above rubies.

I am the apple of God's eye.
My heart is hidden in Christ-
He shall have to seek Him first,
In order to find me.

I am an eternal princess,
For my Father is the King of kings,
And that makes me royalty

Awake!

God said, 'serve',
But I chose to run.

God said, 'stop! ',
But I was having too much fun.

Then God said, 'come! ',
And willingly, I came.

Soon after that,
My life began to change -

God said 'give',
But I said 'get'
