Dear Jesus...
Dear Jesus,
Do I have anything to give to you? I want to know you because I relate to you. Maybe even more than I could ever imagine. I have these stories, Lord that I know will inspire many. My cry out for more in a world that gave me less and less.
Lord, I want all my skeptic friends To know you. No not just spout a few words but things that go beyond the words. But the heart! The heart, Lord! And my skeptical YouTubers I love like Matt Dillahunty and Amazing Atheist to go to Heaven.
My theory Is that those who were given so little and wanted more will...

Lines Handwritten Inside a New English Bible
The skyline of the new Jerusalem
stands out against a cloth of black.
To me, an English church
is always clean and crisp like March mornings,
a spray of orange sunflowers,
a stained image of lambs.
The image-bearers walk in robes of sun
and might include me too, if I
could make the leap to faith.
The Bible structures rise within my head,
the flat-roofed cities of the plain
atop which women bathe.

Whispers of The Saints
O'er the midnight moorlands praying
Thro' the cypress forests swaying
In the night-wind softly straying
Holy voices fill the air
In the barren branches speaking
By the quiet pools still seeking
Past the shore-cliffs ever peeking
Saintly whispers of their care
Once, I think I half remember
Ere the skies of cold December
Quench'd my heart’s once fervent ember
Liv’d there such a thing as grace
Skies that now are grey were gleaming
Bright and golden, warm with meaning
Till I learn’d beneath its seeming
Faith alone...
Thro' the cypress forests swaying

Ere the skies of cold December
Quench'd my heart’s once fervent ember
Liv’d there such a thing as grace

Bright and golden, warm with meaning

Praise The Spoken
Pray a prayer, that God can hear.
Listen Lord, for I know I'm near.
Understand, the troubled bound.
Unshackle the chains, that keep men down.
Hearts of old, and new alike.
Embrace our words, and give us flight.
Bless the wicked, and forgive our sins.
So we may know, your love knows no end.
Lift the weak, and heal the broken.
We praise the words, our Savior has spoken.
Allow the deceased, to rest in peace.
For in our hearts, there is no disbelief.

Lance In The Ice
By Baltic's frozen waves they fought
Each step a struggle, dearly bought
Clad in furs, with hearts of fire
Driven by an ancient ire
Their gods were carved in stone and tree
Spirits wild, fierce, and free
To these, the blood was promised red,
For strength in battle and the dead
The pagans marched with savage pride
Through ice and storm, they did not hide
Their axes raised to meet the foe
Where winter's breath made rivers slow
For in the night, their fires burned,
And to the West their anger turned
Frozen...

The Bloody Crown of Martyrdom
O crown of crimson, soaked in pain
Where sacrifice and death remain
A bloody wreath of thorn and bone
Upon the brow of those alone
Lift high the blood-stained sign of grace
A martyr’s heart in death embraced
Each drop that falls from shattered skin
A vow to never yield within
O martyr’s crown, O bitter throne
For truth and light, their lives are sown
Through agony, through burning flame
They rise beyond the world of shame
Their blood becomes the seeds of might
That bloom within the darkest night
And from...

Enochian Songs Triumphant
O radiant light from Heaven’s peak
In hosts of angels, fierce and meek
Each choir adorned with crowns of grace
Each triumph sealed in holy place
Seraphim blaze with endless flame
Their wings a torch, their voice proclaim
They sing of love that never fades
In fire’s heart, their spirit wades
Cherubim hold wisdom’s key
Their eyes perceive eternity
They guard the gates of Heaven’s span
Where mortal mind may never scan
The Thrones in majesty reside
Their power flows like oceans wide
In judgment pure, they...

Sanctus Sanguinis
O blessed Blood, most pure and bright
Poured forth from Heaven’s sacred rite
Thy crimson tide, our sins doth cleanse
In Thee, O Christ, our hope begins
Thy chalice raised in holy hands
Doth shine with love, an eternal plan
We drink, O Lord, and hearts are stirred
By sacred wine and holy Word
O Blood of Lamb, O Blood divine
Thy mercy flows, transcendent sign
In sacrifice, Thou hast been slain
And through Thy Blood, sangreal pain
In mystic form, Thy Flesh we take
Thy Blood doth heal the hearts that ache

A Bed of Thorns
Nails driven through hand and feet
Raised on dusty roads in desert heat
Price of ascension's glory
Curtain fall of the sacrificial story
Proud humbled and meek inheriting Earth
Hell harrowed and bereft of Satan's mirth
Spoken down with the weight on my shoulders
Weight of sin greater than a million boulders
I didn't heed the call
Even though His blood paid for it all
A crown for He and a bed for me
Spoiled and forsaken yet free
Walking with the...

Sin Amongst Spires
To sit amongst the empty sky
Looking down counting lies
A contrast of purple and black
Temptations on the attack
Observe from holy towers
Invoked names of perfidious powers
Reaping the sigils due
Some for me and some for you
Umbral promises none see through
Beneath stars where secrets dwell
A pact borne beyond heaven and hell
From spires they watch and wait
Liars marching beyond perdition's gates
Looking down counting lies
A contrast of purple and black
Temptations on the attack
Observe from holy towers
Invoked names of perfidious powers
Reaping the sigils due
Some for me and some for you
Umbral promises none see through
Beneath stars where secrets dwell
A pact borne beyond heaven and hell
From spires they watch and wait
Liars marching beyond perdition's gates
