Setting Captives Free

 

Formless and empty; void of light

God's Spirit was hovering over all

God said, "Let there be light,"

It was so good...darkness to light

So many dwell within darkness

They have eyes but do not see

Walking on the road to perdition

Captives of their wasted energy

 

Many struggle do the right thing

Their eyes are fixed on eternity

Walking amidst hovering spirits

Darkening their way to destiny

We journey many winding roads

Reaping blessings we have sown

Though we may carry heavy loads

Our eyes stay focused on home

Just let God's light shine through

Live your life in perfect harmony

Through the darkness facing you

To the light setting captives free

Hearts of Gold

There are so many pretty faces

Smiles as white as winter snow

Dressed in all the latest fashions

With hearts that are stone cold

We are just pieces of a dream

Each one with a story to be told

Yet behind all the clutter we see

Reveals the rainbow's pot of gold

The distance between separation

Is only as far as the eye can see

The union of all that divides us

Start letting go; begin letting be

Smiling faces living God's graces

Adorned in joy that never gets old

Living the dream placed within us

Hearts stone cold to hearts of gold

The Spirit of Love

Troubling seeing the numbers so low

Standing room only a short time ago

On the run chasing life and dreaming

This reality we are seeing is revealing

Controversy is a tool inside the plan

Confusion in the mind controls a man

Lust makes the empty heart a slave

Only freedom within a soul can save

It is time to return and not to roam

Back to a place that once was home

Rest aside all anger and bitterness

Come home and taste the sweetness

The doors are opened; hearts are too

Welcome into the joys of lasting truth

No place or passion will ever compare

To the Spirit of Love awaiting there

For Heaven's Sake

We're heading into overload
How much more can we take
Watching the snake lies roll
We fight on for heaven's sake

The system is doing so well
But insiders keep on drifting
A story line rising out of hell
Is anyone out there listening

We keep on for heaven's sake
Never troubled or dismayed
Slivers of life make up the cake
The icing seals all the breaks

There is a new spirit in place
So many are caught in the race
But the true Spirit is in the run
Pouring out the glory of the Son

So if you can't bear it anymore
Reach down in your very core
At that moment you will awake
Living on.....for Heaven's sake

Submit to God's Might

 

There is real evil in the world today

Destroying peace and having its way

Setting roadblocks to deny freedom

Spirits of evil, but do we see them

How many of us live lives of scorn

Even asking why we were ever born

We allow forces to have their way

Weakened, we submit to their ways

We've entered into troubling times

Away from times of nursery rhymes

We must all unite and keep it real

One voice, one heart, seal the deal

Together as one we shall overcome

Darkness will vanish away from sight

And one day the victory will be won

Evil will flee; Submit to God's Might

Changing My Ways

The Lord is my Shepherd

He is my Redeemer too

He enlightens my heart

He asked me about you

Lord, why do you ask me

About the lonely and lost

The sick and the needy

Lord, why.....why ask me

I graze in green meadows

Gaze upon crystal streams

Far away from the ghettoes

And all the urban extremes

The life outside of my shell

Is living in my brother's hell

Am I filled with any shame

When I scoff at their pain

The Shepherd is calling me

While I graze; while I gaze

Patiently waiting; lovingly

Quietly, changing my ways

 

Game On

 

Set aside all the shame

Get back in the game

Be open to forgiveness

Rise up; be a witness

Hope is the key to life

The release of strife

A new day is upon us

All we need is to trust

He is patiently waiting

Longing our embracing

Seeking to set us free

Release us from misery

Decide for lasting love

Live truth from above

Get back in the game

He is calling your name

Wait not for tomorrow

Be healed from sorrow

Cleansing heats anew

Game on, make a move
