ALL FOR YOU


Can I sip your wine?
Can I ask for more?
Can I kiss your lips?
Like never before

Can I hold your hands?
Walk you down the hall
Can I show you love?
Like you have never felt before

Can I take you with me ?
Through this world of mine
Hold close when you slip
And never let you fall

I will be there for you
All your needs to care for
Sing to you all the melodies
A young heart would die for

Someone your pains to bear
Buy you a smile for a start
Just so we can play it fair
I will give you a head start

MERCIFUL LORD




Merciful Lord, mighty lord
May thy name be exalted
Through tempest and raging storm
Peace and joy in my heart restored

There is something amazing about You
In Your presence nothing is impossible
Impatiently when I disobeyed thy words
Never turned me down but forgave my unfaithfulness

I am grateful for the hills and fountains
For the flowers, trees and grasses
Thou created me in thy beauty and likeliness
As does in heaven the angels

Sent Your son through much pain and humiliation
For a man's perished soul to find retribution
Today, I can walk confidently through the enemies camp
No harms come before me, You are always by my side

ABSTRACT



In absence of an abstract night
Soberly the mind wander deep into the dark
Thoughts of retribution, pregnant with guilt
Of profound acts not denounced 
Search the stars for time and season
A glimpse of hope from death
The reflection of a soul lost
Tattered and tossed away like a filthy rag
Dragged in the pit over the years
As the sun reluctantly parted ways
With man, unleavened in thoughts and deed
