Tongue Tried and True: Psalms

All flattering tongues shall be cut off As the tongues that speak proud words Don't backbite with the oration That you may dwell in the Lord's nation Keep the tongue from speaking evil And your tongue from speaking duplicity Don't give your mouth to speaking evil Nor your tongue to framing deceit Cry unto God with your mouth And exalt him daily with your speech Speak of God's probity all the day Compounding those who'll stand in your way Let your speech be of the word And the commands which are righteous heard

Tongue Tried and True: Proverbs

The lip of truth shall be set up forever But the lying tongue is for a moment Giving heed to false lips does the evil-doer And a naughty tongue for a liar's ears is meant Death and life in the power of the tongue And he that loves it shall eat the fruit Speak the truth while you are young For the froward mouth will kill your youth Keep your tongue thus your soul from distress And with an angry facial chase the backbiting mess A lying tongue hates those it burdens And a flattering mouth does dilapidation Rebuke a man then find more favor Than the man that hides and seeks to flatter

God of Light and over Darkness

There was darkness in the beginning But God said let there be light And the light he called day And the darkness night He forms the light and creates darkness He makes peace and creates evil Isaiah forty-five the verse is seven The God of earth and of the heavens

Activate Diligence

Slow but not steady, go but not ready I'm just sitting on earth doing nothing already Every day every hour I'm just lazing around And I'm all about sleep because I'm feeling all down Spending most of my day as I listen to sounds There are  things to be done There are places to be gone I know I must do it but I haven't begun Must muster the will to fire the gun But I would rather run Though my body feels like it weighs a tonne Yes my flesh is weak at every turn So I stare at the ceiling or look out the view Or I start daydreaming about a thing or two But I never get started on items of taste The doing of the nothing is all such a waste This cannot continue; this useless state No time to be idle must demonstrate Let the will of action be transferred to me And with wonderful wisdom let me start to be It is time, yes it's time for productivity Move on out of this spirit of despondency Set the switch of my power on priority Set the mind o...

Everyone is Selling Something

I have learned in life that everyone has something to sell And in doing so what they have must take the appearance of meaning well Everyone wants to convince someone to follow a certain way Everyone wants someone to hear what they say Or do what they do, some false and pretentious - others genuine and true But how many are true? How many authentic? In this frantic, homicidal world of hate there's a lot of debate The debate is ongoing in the mind and it always involves why Why should I buy what you have? How do I know it will do me fittingly? Why should I believe what you say is the truth or the real deal? Like really real or is it just an imminent steal? And are you willingly throwing me to the sharks just so you can gain some satisfaction? Sell me something good as you should and I'll be in a good mood I mean we all want good at the end of the day but some get their good by false trade They dress up their words so well that it's hard to tell of what it is ma...

When The Tables Turn

It won't be long till the wrong that you do Will turn and return to be done just to you It won't be too soon when the people you play Will watch without worry of having their way You think you are clever since you were not caught But there will be justice - yeah, like it or not For every new person you push into pain Beware cause it cycles to you once again The Most High is just in the way that he deals Nobody evades of His judgment and wills So you must remember, your power's from Him It's given to you to be honest and prim Don't let what you have for today fill your head The Master can turn it to nothing instead And all of the people you treated as dung Will rise in the second you fall to the down The tables will turn and for God it is easy All things that are done could return really busy The King of all things will redistribute power May happen in seconds or minutes or hours Don't think it won't happen, don't play with the m...

Buy the Truth and Sell it Not

The world that we know of today is a lie A system that’s set to break down and destroy Destroy what is innocent, or pure, good and true A system where mostly the wicked get through For one to sustain and uplift in this place It’s set for indecent and corrupted actions The ones who are truthful are never the ace They falter and fall into dissatisfaction It’s rare for the good to have everything covered They labor in earnest but all is devoured They’re tested quite daily and pressured to sin Though harder they labor, it’s harder to win The wicked still prosper by using their lies Thus some good men stumble and fall to the ground A flood of deception to drown all the wise Some regain composure while others stay down It’s why good men daily must buy of the truth The truth is refreshing and keeps up their youth Despite of the refuge of lies and deceit The truth taken daily will strengthen their feet And those in deception are dead while...

The Countdown

Clickity click, tickity tock Down comes the countdown clock The times we know are soon to end Ain't time for chilling out with friends Disasters everywhere we'll look The laws of God that we forsook Great principles of love and truth The words of wisdom that we boot Hurricanes, earthquakes, fires too Floods, volcano eruptions will do To destroy the lives of falsity lived By the malice and cruelty that we give For long we lived for us alone Forgetting The King upon His throne The time of fear will soon be here The time of sorrows very near And shame we thought it was before But still good times is what we know That's why we forget the only King In church we go to shout and sing The daily life that we live is fake We are filled with deceit and filthy hate Too bad, too bad cause so many will die We hate the truth and cherish the lies We love the evil and hate the goods And the Bible says woe to such dudes If ever the time for to turn it is now ...

Life is a struggle

In every good thing there is struggle involved But nothing is peaceful as problems resolved So often one's life is truly a fight One wrestles non-stop to find his delight Whatever the goal that one will achieve It's not just a case of returns when he gives Gives of his sweat, tears, time and blood Give when resistance in-comes like a flood But if one remembers that life is a brawl He takes on the challenge while giving his all Neither the words that the people will say Nor things that they do will get in his way The times get harder as hard as can be But the vision of success is all that one sees Each failure a lesson for him to learn from He holds onto hope and he weather's the storm No matter the pressures that fall thereupon He's rarely in doubt to continue along Each fight is a course that he has to prevail He strengthens resolve as he picks up the trail As every new challenge so sudden appears He listens to none of the jeers that he hears H...

Who are we without love?

Though we be strong Or filled with power Though we have riches And wealth without number Though we have friends And many a union Even with knowledge And very great wisdom Stature or fame Time and skill A beautiful smile Or impeccable will No matter the thing that we gain It's nothing if we're inhumane And what will we be without love? So how do we measure our worth? No strength, riches or knowledge and skill Will make a person if there is no love

I Walk With Death

I walk with death everyday As I cook it hopes for an explosion When I have breakfast it waits for me to choke When I shower it hopes I would slip and fall Whenever I leave the house its hopes grow ever tall As I walk down the road it prays that a tree would fall on me Or that a vehicle would make me fickle And when the sun rises it looks on for heatstroke Sometimes it strengthens by what people say And if the mind is weak will have its way Even wishing me broke so I can't eat and thereby starve What a chaperone in death that I have It never leaves me, it's always near It's even closer if I'm full of fear On the beach it would have me drown Or see that my pressure rise when I frown No matter the deed I do Death holds true Even when I sleep it doesn't take a break But prays the Lord my soul to take I've learned though not to fear death But to savor its presence with every breath When it does obtain the power to kill Nothing I do will offset...

Who is my friend?

One I don't have to beg for aid Who sticks with me till I'm made One who takes interest in my efforts And understands my worth Who knows that my down time doesn't define me Who in times of low enjoy my company My friend will not willfully betray my trust And will surely hear me out first It is someone who will understand a mistake And when everyone is gone will not forsake And never forgetting that friend will share Hold all my victories and burdens near Will hold to truth in terrible pain Is blunt, straightforward and very plain There aren't many who can be true But honesty a friend will do They're far and few down to the end Hold fast, be happy for your friend

The Truth is Coming

Extra, extra Read all about it The time has come For the truth to reign The government still Oppress the people The rich man sits On his window pane The great judge still  Makes the sentence filthy The lawyers continue To defend the guilty The police working For the bribe The world just functions On evil vibes The earth is given To hands of the wicked And what is there  For us to do? But live the truth And love God's glory Remember God From since our youth The truth will reign Yes it is coming The lies will fall They cannot stand So live the truth It lasts forever And none can  Ever stop its hand

Essence of Life

There's a buzz in my ear I hear it every day, everywhere It says keep the laws of God Do it even if you appear odd Still sometimes I wonder What am I doing wrong? I always seem to fall short in some way, some day Regardless, maybe something I do or say Like how do I keep the laws all the time? Will I always be able to focus my mind? Do I have all the cards within my hands? Aren't there powers beyond my command? So when I fall Was my strength small? And when I stand Was it my strength at all? I'm just a man Just how much can I do? How far can I go? How much can I know? Is keeping the law Always black and white? If so, why is there Always some controversy to fight? Don't do this; do it this way And yet at times the simplest of laws Are so very deep With lessons that are hard to keep Like love your neighbor And pray for your enemy Neglected through lies That blind the eyes To the truth That if I always look into the mirror I can s...
