GOT

[Anglican]

Got is the attitude of haste
A sure foundation of needless waste
I've got to have it yesterday
It's something new, I'll gladly pay
Whether I have the cash or not
My plastic card will stem the rot
And I'll be in a heavenly mood
Because, to me, it's just like food
That feeds the boredom in my soul
And fills my hungry God shaped hole
But only lasts a little time
Before that mountain I must climb
If only I would ask The One
Who satisfies through His dear Son
Then I would surely lose the taste
For all my piles of needless waste.

 

[Anglican]

Facet

The facets of your past remain
In caverns underground
Lying idly, gathering dust
They do not make a sound
Until the day that one escapes
And floats up to the top
Reminding you of sinful past
It's power you can't stop.

Like a bad smell lingering
It stays with you all day
Polluting every waking hour
It will not go away
You have to choose it's future path
Consign it to the bin
Get on with your Christian walk
You mustn't let it win.

 

[Anglican]

Sleepwalker

I watch you sleeping in your walk
When are you going to wake
You cannot be serious
Oh how long will it take
For you to see that I have plans
That you must take on board
Time is running out, My child
Please listen to your Lord
Who wants the world to see His face
Through those who bear His Son
You have the power to do my will
But you have not begun
To step outside your pleasure dome
Into a fallen world
I am with you all the way
Come here and be unfurled.

 

[Anglican]

Grey

When things are cloudy, grey and grim
The sunlight gone away
And everything is just hard work
You do not want to play
Remember that you're not alone
He went there once, you know
He understands each painful step
And through it all, we grow.

For when we're happy, so is He
Who rides our every state
And though we wander off the path
It never is too late
To realise that all our needs
Are found in our dear Lord
Who gave His life to set us free
To live life's rich reward.

 

[Anglican]

Grape

Why should someone take such care
In changing sad old me
You'd think He had enough on His plate
Without the strain I be
For it has not been easy
His work has been cut out
It's been a lot like roping a steer
Who loves to scream and shout
But maybe He is winning
I'm coming round, at last
By heeding things He tells me
My stubbornness outclassed
You have to reach a plateau
From which you can't escape
Before you finally give in
My vine has grown a grape.

 

[Anglican]

God is love

Who on earth are you trying to be
Someone deep in human pride
Straining,striving endlessly
To right the wrongs you'd like to hide.

What on earth was expected
Couldn't mold you into type
Put you down for every fault
Tears of pain you cannot wipe.

God is love,He knows you well
Loves you just the way you are
His arms outstretched are beckoning
Come here child, you are a star.

You're the one whom I created
No mistakes are made by Me
I can make you feel elated
And in Me you can be free.
