MY SOUL WAS FORGED IN HEAVEN

 

My soul was forged in heaven

And my heart was filled with love

My faith is as strong as iron

I am akin to the angels above

Until my soul returns to heaven

And I bask in eternal love

JAMES THE GREATER

 

The legend of James

Apostle of the lord

And Christ’s appointed

Son of Thunder

Upon his Martyrs death

In Jerusalem

St James body

Was taken by angels

And placed in a boat

Which sailed, unmanned

And rudderless

To the Spanish coast

Where it was enveloped

By a massive rock

For although they

Are out of sight

We are in safe hands

Both day and night

As they walk among us

The Angels of the light

On a battlefield in Galicia

Upon the cry of Santiago

The saint appeared

Upon a steed of brilliant white

St James the greater

Was then transformed

From a fisher of men

To Santiago Matamoros,

St. James the Moor slayer

HELL DOES NOT HAVE TO BE

 

Hell does not have to be

A fiery pit of brimstone

Hell is merely

The absence of God

ONE OF THE TWELVE - JUDAS ISCARIOT

 

One of the twelve

The taker of coins

The lost soul

Satan’s pawn

Hanged himself

Replaced as an apostle

By Matthias
