The Heathen’s “Safe Sex”
The heathen want to talk about “safe sex” And “responsible sex” rather than holy And that which is reserved for marriage only. They fancy themselves dignified and mature When they those young ones with fine rhetoric lure To thinking they can fool around and fornicate Without making that “partner” a holy mate. Ah, but the […]

Thank the One Who Rules Over All
Now that abortion is dumped, What is the next evil to be thumped? Always plenty of evil to contest; This world is still in a mess, Long as sin abides in the hearts of men. No solution but to shed the pollution By obeying the Savior’s commands To do the Right and shun the Wrong; […]

Good Riddance, Roe!
Just like slavery went away So will abortion, by God, When they see the light of day! Fools will awake from their drools Zealous for Law grab their tools Justice takes up the hammer Puts butcherers in the slammer. No more blood at the “clinics” (Sorry you pro-abort cynics!) Life created in the image of […]

Roe Foolishness Recounted
Don’t have poem in mind to write; Not much happening I need to right. Might as well sing a song or take a walk; Not one to myself who likes to talk.Got to be productive one way or another;Can’t sit around and look for a “druther.” Gonna go with the flow as it comes, Whether […]

The Difficult Dumping of Roe
Who can deny the depravity of man, That Biblical doctrine declaring our sin nature From the womb to the tomb abides?It drags the race to places disgusting! At every step to free our land of the abortion curse We run into walls of obstruction Arising from human corruption: That will to serve the self and […]

The Land is Bereft!
Oh, the land these days is bereft Of the sound of bullets left In the flesh of those butcherers Who slaughter those innocent infants! Let that bang again be heard Putting an end the absurd, Legalized murder of the helpless; Make a rope for them a necklace Who practice murder with liberty Bringing blood-guilt on […]

The Stupidity of the Sinner
Laws are a bitch to the Lawless; Bunch o’ trouble gettin’ in the way. “Don’t bother me with what you say!” Say the Lawless to the ones Tryin’ to show ’em the light o’ day, The way of God out o’ the fray. All the wandering through the muck, Go those folks not giving even […]

Bottles on the Bookcase
Those bottles sitting on a bookcase With a knife from Takur and Sunil, Refugees from the East Whom we met in Germany Looking for peace in the West Taken in by a fellow from the base. Col. Lembers had given them a place; He found them while they made the art Providing them shelter and […]

You Made a Way!
You made a way where there was no way: Blew those clinics, shutting the mouths of cynics. Oh what a wonderful God You are, Keeping us strong and out of the tar Found on the streets and in the bar In many-a place near and far. We are clean as we cling to You Who […]

Beseda, Brockhoeft, and Bray
Beseda, Brockhoeft and Bray Blew those “clinics” away! At least that’s what the courts do say. Each enjoyed his own glorious day: Convicted, deeds brought to public light Testimonies to what is good and right. Saving babies by any means necessary Can sometimes bring on the “scary”: Police, judges, courts, and jail – None of […]

The Trinity and a Knife
The Trinity and a knife And those empty bottles of beer Sitting atop my bookcase Reminds us all that we got no fear! He beat that devil; kicked his ass. Only thing he can do now is harass! Yeah, he got whooped and must comply Doing God’s will even on the sly. It’s a fine […]

You’re On Stage
You entertain angels. They don’t see what is in your heart; You need to show them something: Singing, prayer, praise and good deeds, Sewing those divinity seeds. You entertain angels everyday! What do they say? What will they declare? Buck on up and put on a good show; Got deeds to do, don’t ya know! […]

Fool! Fool!
Fool! Fool! You want to trust a man Who leaves his wife to come to you? What do you think next he’ll do? Think he will stay and be true? Like you are above all women Ready to take in the philanderer Whose character is as a slanderer Who snubs and defiles what is holy? […]

Rattle and Roll
We can talk about death. You know he lost his sting; With you and all believers . . . Well, he can’t do a thing! Lost his way, cut off by the cross; Now, over death, God’s the boss! He can brings those bones back Whether from a grave or a sack. Gonna rattle and […]

Sin Puts on Display
Sin helps to put on display That there is no other way. Explore it all and find it boring; Better by His grace be soaring. Turn to the one and only King; Happy praises you will sing. Yes, death has lost its sting Thanks to our triumphant King. He battered down the gates of hell […]

Songs to Allah?
Who composes songs to Allah? What a savior worthy of awe? Now, he’s got some good laws, But nothing’ to escape death’s jaws. Nobody but Jesus saves from death; Got to call Him before your last breath. You need the One who died and rose For whom songs the saints compose. No one else came […]
