Cast
placed upon the cross
mockery and curses cast
upon the Savior
hanging from the cross
prayer cast upon the mockers
one of forgiveness

For The One That Is To Be
For the one that is to be,
God has a plan for me.
He is preparing me,
For what He has prepared for me.
I will have to wait and see,
For what he has instored for me.
For the one that is to be,
He knows my desires,
And how much you mean to me.
For the one that is to be,
This is what the Lord had said to me,
And I have waited faithfully.
For the one that is to be,
I want to serve the Lord whole heartedly.
Will you come along with me?
Together we can see,
What He has instored for you...
God has a plan for me.
He is preparing me,
For what He has prepared for me.
I will have to wait and see,
For what he has instored for me.
For the one that is to be,
He knows my desires,
And how much you mean to me.
For the one that is to be,
This is what the Lord had said to me,
And I have waited faithfully.
For the one that is to be,
I want to serve the Lord whole heartedly.
Will you come along with me?
Together we can see,
What He has instored for you...

Two Hearts
Two hearts of desire broken,
divided by the country line,
followed by unwanted days of separation.
Tears have fallen plenty;
for the need to love from afar
has brought much heartache.
Now, the days of separation have ceased,
for the desired day of two hearts has risen;
and the clock has stricken the hour
for the two hearts to cross the country line together forever.

Notes of Affection
Aware of the Almighty,
my senses lose their senses.
As I fixate upon him,
all whereabouts make themselves unknown.
Impressed upon me,
is His deep affection for my soul.
His caressing touch enchants my heart.
Slowly, my senses come about
--suspended between the atmospheres
of the afterlife, and the hour that exists.
With each beat,
His deep affection rushes through the vessels of my heart.
Slowly, my arm sways to and fro,
as the guitar plays silent notes.
My lips lay not still,
while my voice...
my senses lose their senses.

all whereabouts make themselves unknown.

Silent Night
Although, the lids of my eyes weigh heavily upon me, my eyes remain unclosed,
as sleep escapes me.
After many restless nights of laying in silent darkness, I hear a malicious voice, within the space of my ears, softly whispering, "kill, kill, kill."
I scan the darkness surrounding me.
All is pitch black.
Shuddering frantically, I cry, "whose there?
Show yourself."
The voice of silent darkness has no reply.
Suddenly, A thin web of light reflects off the glass; finding itself staring deep into the eyes of a remorseful figure.
