THE FATHER IS WITH US EVERY MOMENT

 

The father is with us every moment 

Of every hour both day and night

Over every continent and island

He keeps us in His wondrous light

WE GIVE OUR PRAISE WITHOUT CONDITION

 

We give our praise without condition

Given freely to the Lord on high

We sing it to the highest heaven

Our hands held reaching to the sky

THE FEAST OF EPIPHANY

 

Epiphany is a Christian festival in honour of

The coming of the Three Kings to the infant Lord,

The first manifestation of Christ to the Gentiles

That celebrates the revelation of God in his Son

Known as the Day of the Lights or Three King’s Day

A SOUND LIKE HEAVEN

 

A sound like heaven

Sits softly on the ear

Every honey coated word

Is a sweet souvenir

The joy of her touch

On my skin still lingers

From her Porcelain hands

And delicate fingers

Delicately scented

Like an exotic Rose

Still vividly resides

In the appreciative nose

And the sight of her

Consummate beauty

Will occupy my dreams

For all eternity

THE CHARGE OF THE DARK BRIGADE

The scroll of the seven seals

Rested in God's right hand

Until he bade his son

The Lion of Judah

To break the first seal

And the Lamb did so

And from the broken seal

Appeared a white horse

Bearing the conqueror

Carrying a bow,

And wearing a victor's crown

 

God then bade his son

The Lion of Judah

To break the second seal

And the Lamb did so

And from the broken seal

Appeared a red horse

Bearing the warrior

Carrying a sword

And wielding the power

To take peace from the world

 

God then bade his son

The Lion of Judah

To break the third seal

And the Lamb did so

And from the broken seal

Appeared a black horse

Bearing the bringer of famine

Carrying a set of scales

         

Finally, he bade his son

The Lion of Judah

To break the fourth seal

And the Lamb did so

And from the broken seal

Appeared a pale horse

Bearing a rider called death

With hell close behind him

 

With power over a quarter of the earth

To kill by sword, famine, plague,

And by the wild beasts of the earth.

The four apocalyptic horsemen rode forth

On the charge of the dark brigade

AT THE END OF HIS LONG LIFE

 

At the end of his long life

A Godly man passes into heaven

Where he sits with God

And revues their journey again

 

While he looked back

Sitting at Gods right hand

He saw it represented by

Two sets of footprints in the sand

 

But he noticed that at times

There was just one set

When he was at his lowest

And he was very upset

 

So, he spoke to God and asked

That in the scene he was shown

Why at the hardest times

He walked the path alone

 

No, my son you are mistaken

At those times God said

I thought it would be more fun

If we hopped instead

AT STONEHENGE, THE DRUIDS

 

At Stonehenge, the druids

Exchange bodily fluids

At the temple to the sun

As the solstice begun

Dressed up like loons

And barking at the moon
