Your Choice
Intro:
Follow me to a place unknown ,
and you m ay see many things unshown ,
your eyes will see that He is there ,
If you can't believe just stay right here .
1)
Listen children to what I say ,
you're going on a trip today ,
through rundown sreets and dark alleys ,
come on along , let us not dally .
2)
I take you here , we visit there,
Wherever I lead He is in the air ,
He is in us all by no ones choice ,
just come and see and hear His voice .
3)
He lives beneath as well on high ,
He'll take you to where your spirits lie ,
your soul he made , your heart he owns ,
your body is just a seed He's sown.
4)
If you believe in eternal life ,
a light that shines through all this strife ,
you must believe to understand ,
and learn to cope in His promised land
5)
Now come on back for all to see ,
these remnants of society ,
it will be new and much more fun ,
your life on Earth with the Holy One .
HIM
1)
Music engulfs you, as words pass through .
Just open your eyes to see.
The world's a stage , in fantastic rage ,
just waiting for His glory.
Chorus *
Deliver your soul to rock and roll ,
don't let a day slip by ,
deliver your soul to rock and roll ,
don't let another day go by .
2)
We're just tools he rents, as instruments ,
just things for His survival .
I await the day , He's here to stay ,
when He comes for His revival .
*
3)
Watch people around , fall to the ground ,
'cause they wouldn't listen .
and now they'll pay , or learn to play ,
as they watch Him all a glistenin'
*
Bridge
His words and music are made of magic ,
listen up and you will hear ,
without rock and roll we'd lose control ,
of this thing called society .
*
They're Playing
1)
The world is full of hatred ,
murder , sin and lust .
"The Bomb" is now accepted ,
to all of Our disgust .
Chorus *
We're on the edge of disaster ,
they're playing with Our lives ,
We're on the edge of disaster ,
they're playing with Your life .
2)
Cities are overcrowded ,
with people who don't care ,
all Our eyes get clouded ,
as We pollute the air .
*
3)
What's an energy shortage ,
of this you never heard ,
until they had the courage ,
to let us spread the word .
*
4)
Monuments have turned to rust ,
and they don't seem to mind ,
pumping us up with trust ,
yet lying all the time .
*
5)
Systems just ain't working ,
as We increase Our debt ,
arms race they are smirking ,
only causing us to fret .
*
Am I Living In A Fantasy
1)
My days are short and my nights are long ,
this feeling I have is comming on strong .
My head starts spinning , it's hard to see ,
am I living in a fantasy ?
2)
It all starts when reality goes ,
my mind wandering as the blood flows .
Is it a drug taking over me ,
am I living in a fantasy ?
3)
Hallucinate as my brain unwinds ,
don't try and stop it , let loose the binds .
I saw a bird , or was it a bee ,
am I living in a fantasy ?
4)
As colored lights appear in my eyes ,
conciousness is up into the skies .
Let it happen that is the key ,
am I living in a fantasy ?
5)
Visions I see start comming on fast ,
I begin to hope that just one would last .
It takes control , just let it be ,
am I living in a fantasy ?
6)
Like all things it begins to end ,
my mind unwarps, begins to unbend ,
Was it a drug , or was it just me ,
am I living in a fantasy ?
A Lesson
1)
The Word is here , The Word is now ,
lisen all and I'll tell you how .
His word is truth , His word is love ,
I'm not like those who try to shove .
Chorus *
It is to you I reach , as I try to teach ,
the message of His grace .
I hope you hear this song , and forever long ,
the see His glorious face .
2)
The Word has strength ,The Word has peace ,
listen to all these words at least .
His word has light , His word has life ,
it is a guide in all your strife .
*
3)
The Word will praise , The Word has voice ,
if you listened , you know the choice .
His word will be , His words will stay ,
It is over now I have had my say .
Remembering
Chorus *
Remembering times gone past ,
Remembering things that last ,
Remembering times of old ,
Remembering things I'm told.
1)
Just remember the months of J.F.K. ,
Such a great man , yet no holiday .
They gave one to Martin , and one to Chris ,
Somehow it seems he just got missed .
*
2)
Just remember the days you traveled ,
your wits on end , nerves unraveled .
All the places you saw, the people you were with ,
Now dead from drugs, or drunk on fifths.
*
3)
Just remember the hours you missed Bingo
listeing to John, Paul , George and Ringo .
They sang the songs that made rock grow ,
their lyric and music together flow .
*
4)
Just remember the minutes watching with Mom ,
for news on T. V. about Viet Nam .
You wondered if they would ever come home ,
always praying to hear their voice on the phone .
*
5)
Just remember the seconds of wasted school ,
dreaming of a nice dip in the pool .
Thinking back now, most of it was fun ,
but it is over now and what's done is done .
*
Rules
1)
The Earth operates on a set of rules ,
physical and chemical , just look for the clues .
Chorus *
The rules are simple the rules are set .
Just follow His light and He'll pay your debt .
2)
Society runs with a set of rules ,
legal and cultural , just pay your dues .
*
3)
Music is written on a set of rules,
Jazz and symphony and even the blues
*
4)
We live in a world with a set with rules ,
it is up to you to follow , why not choose .
A Revelation
1)
Why people worry about atomic bombs ,
when Christs good word forever calms ,
the world won't end, cannot even bend ,
so what's with all the present qualms.
Chorus *
The time of revelation ,
will soon be at hand ,
We will all join Christ ,
in His promised land .
2)
Some are not saved , unfortunately true ,
accept His word and you can be too ,
It's not to late, don't vegitate ,
Believing His word , will cure your blues .
*
3)
When rature comes , it will be seen ,
Christians ascend , their spirits clean ,
His time will come , thine will be done ,
Christ comes back , kingdom redeemed .
*
4)
Then there's time of tribulation ,
when the beast rules ev'ry nation ,
his rule last as seven pass ,
Christ rule begins in jubilation .
*
5)
His rule last a thousand years ,
a joyous time shed not a tear ,
you will be glad and never mad ,
the complete life without a fear .
*

I was lost in outerspace ,
did not want to know His face ,
I was caught between two worlds ,
my mind was all a-whirl . Unsaved

My life was such a mess ,
all my thoughts were of distress ,
I was in such deep despair ,
all I knew life wasn't fair . Unsaved
3)
The depression I was in ,
without him I couldn't win ,
just a little guiding light ,
to make it through a night . Unsaved
4)
Overdosed and wouldn't die ,
couldn't let life end in a lie ,
he held the key to my door ,
or else hell forever more . Unsaved
5)
I have now found The Lord ,
with a little help I will ford ,
all the obstacles in my way ,
it was such a glorious day . I'm Saved
Discover Your Destiny
1)
If you sit back , and watch His show , you'll be lost in the night ,
you must help out , get rid of doubt , accept with all your might .
Chorus *
Discover, Your destiny ,
you've got to realize ,
Discover, Your destiny ,
ain't up to you or me .

The path is clear , to those who seek , be guided by His light ,
and if you're blind , don't get left behind , His gift is one of sight .
*

Narrow it goes , it twists and bends , you better hold on tight ,
if it gets hard don't drop your gaurd , He'll help you win the fight .

All the obstacles , that block you way , are just tools of the man in white ,
the way is rough , you must be tough , it will always turn out right .

Only Man
As I walk along the path ,
to get closer to my goal ,
the closer I get , the harder the steps become .
I accept all the trials ,
and always look for good ,
but I am still bound to fall into temptations .
There is so much more to learn ,
so much knowledge I have gained ,
with every answer , I ask another question .
To gain a perfect wisdom ,
just put knoweldge into acts ,
if a possible achievement , I would not be man.
To make a strive for perfecton ,
is such a daunting task ,
but I will walk with Him forever , 'tho only man .
His Plan
1)
The world may opress me and bid me in chains ,
but I will always be free with Him at the reins .
Chorus *
I look toward the man who's given me freedom ,
became part of His plan in His promised kingdom .
2)
I may suffer and I may die for his rightous name ,
I'd be living a lie if I played the worlds game .
*
3)
I was saved by his grace , did not cost a dime ,
just looked towards His face and forgave my crimes .
*
4)
He's made me a promise , He won't ever break ,
Can't doubt like a Thomas , just accept Him on faith .
*
Good News
1)
I was just sitting in a jail cell ,
quickly finding the way to hell ,
when I met a man who gave me hope ,
showed me a plan , taught me to cope .
Chorus *
Just searched for a better way ,
never learned and never prayed .
Now I'll play with chosen few ,
since the day i found Good News .
2)
As I was feeling down and blue,
always looking for something new .
became filled with love and found the way ,
free as a dove , can face the day .
*
3)
To people I appeared lonely and sad ,
always bitter and never glad .
Now his presence near , so close to me ,
I will never fear my destiny .
*
4)
Knowing I was fake , down deep inside ,
all my heartaches could not confide .
Accepted forgiveness as I was told ,
felt his kindness , that's always bold .
*
5)
Out of all the things I searched for ,
not even kings can lock this door .
He came when asked , gave me the key ,
accepted His tasks , on humbled knee . My Home Page My Poems
