SUPER HEROES



We all have Super Heros in our lives
They may not be the strongest
Or the smartest in the world
But are always there for you 
At the darkest hours 
When all thoughts of life 
Has negatively deluded you
They ignite the will in you
To bounce back amidst life challenges
And fight for what you believe in 
To achieve your dreams

PUREST OF HEART


Lord help me
To have the purest of heart
The mind is a snare
Lusting after the things of life

I dine in sin daily
By compromising my faith
Your grace is sufficient for me
The flesh I wear is weak

She takes advantage of me
For an excuse of my trespasses
Because You are forgiven and kind
Doesn't permit self righteousness

I heard whispers in my sleep
My deeds will only bring about death
Both to the soul and spirit  
The heart and the body as a whole

I will be tormented within
Cast into the eternal flame
Help me to be of a clean heart
A heart seeking after your will

I want to be forgiven
To everyone whom have scorned me
Reproof to anger and hate
Reproof to pride and prejudice

Take my life and plant your words
On the fleshy table of my heart
At the end of this journey on earth
l seek to wear the purest of heart

THE JOURNEY OF LIFE


It is true what they say
The journey of life begins with a little step
From a toddler, I have grown
To attain the height of a purposeful man

Not because I am the strongest
Not because I am the smartest
Neither is it because I am special
But because I have a divine helping hand

He never gave up on me
Never judged my shortcomings
But gave me all the support I needed
Life for a moment was never out of place

As I lift up my eyes beyond the clouds
To God who have being sustaining me
Until I journey to my home beyond the sky
Know that I will forever be indebted

Today,  I pray that the joy I found
May it depart not from me and not from you
May the heavenly father light away every darkness
But plant in you a garden of His profound greatness
