Sweet Salvation

 

Sweet Salvation

 

Sin

The devil’s deuces in my hand

I could not understand

Or begin to comprehend

Lost in a manic maze without end

In a starless moonless night

Full of fright and haze

 

Love

A sweet hello

A world I didn’t know

A light beyond the mist

Something I could never dream to exist

I heard the Word

And in my heart stirred

A fainty ray of light

 

I was lost in sin most vile

Life a pointless vain trial

Barely able to fake a smile

I was wondering if there was something more

If somehow I had missed the door

Then I heard the gospel story

Of Jesus, God and glory

How on the cross of Calvary

He paid the price for me

 

Faith commeth by hearing and hearing by the Word of God

God be true and every man a lair

Grace pricked my heart

I began a quest

A new start

I could not rest 

Until I made things right

With the Lord of Light

I learned the gospel lesson

Accepted it without question

And in baptism buried in the blood deep

The good Lord my soul to keep

Thanx to sweet salvation

My destination heaven above

What great love

 

Born again!

Thank God for saving me from sin

CAN I GET A WITNESS

Calvary

Calvary

 

Time is a ripple of the deep abyss

Jesus friendless was betrayed by a kiss

The rhythm of the hammer keeping time

Was there ever more a horrific crime?

Lamb of God slain between two wicked thieves

Still mankind refuses no one believes

I vividly call giving the ghost

I was there till the end that is my boast

The Christ rose went on to prominent fame

And I returned to my whimsical game

Searching for truth in a world with no right

Looking for glory in an endless night

Snapping my fingers keeping up the beat

Abandoning melody is defeat

How many times did I want to surrender?

But I have faith I’m not a pretender

How it felt to feel them puncture my hands

A lesson in humility demands

An answer for the deepest of questions

But there is a truth no one mentions

It was all planned long before creation

With much forethought and deep meditation

Kiss me lover for fleeting changes come

And I must bring to Earth our God’s kingdom

Debate these words argue so profusely

Love me intensely but hold on loosely

Or you too may find yourself crucified

A reality not to be denied

Like a banjo string constantly humming

Banging, banging, cruel carpenter’s drumming

There would never have been a Cavalry

If sin’s evil was not authority

Murmurings Of A Mad Man information 

Ethan’s Song

Ethan’s Song

 

I wish you the blue of heaven the glory of the sun’s fire                   

May your road always be even when you meet your desire              

Riches may come your way but I pray your heart stays steadfast     

That the treasures you truly treasure are the things that last              

 

Ethan there are mysteries deep

Ethan there are nights void of sleep

Jesus loves you those are words to keep

Ethan there are mysteries deep

 

When the eagle first spreads its wings to fly the world opens wide

The finest things in life are the secrets they try to hide

Beyond the mountains are many places that you’ve never been

The gold always shines brightly but then again so does sin

 

Ethan there are mysteries deep

Ethan there are nights void of sleep

Jesus loves you those are words to keep

Ethan there are mysteries deep

 

The straight and narrow is the way that Jesus trod

The cruelty of the cross was an act of God

When you surrender everything you attain

And love I mean true love is never vain

 

Wine women and song these are the pleasures of life tempting sore

Take a sip from the golden chalice and you’ll be wanting more

Trouble will come the whole world dances to the devil’s drum

They promise heaven but at best they are comfortably numb

 

Ethan there are mysteries deep

Ethan there are nights void of sleep

Jesus loves you those are words to keep

Ethan there are mysteries deep

 

The Word of God always rings true but can a youth comprehend?

Every day you live takes you closer to the journey’s end

Poets dream of simple things that kings and queens could never attain

Don’t you know for flowers to grow they need sunshine and rain

 

Ethan there are mysteries deep

Ethan there are nights void of sleep

Jesus loves you those are words to keep

Ethan there are mysteries deep
