Poetry

[NickHassan]

those who sin are slaves to sin, all have sinned so all are slaves
freedom makes you slaves of Christ as we cannot shepherd self
all who live are slaves the choice is ever between two masters
so grasp the hem of the saviour's garment hold onto every word
intellect has no reprieve it is condemned to die to be replaced by
scripture truth, the mind of Christ taken daily from the bread of life

[NickHassan]

intellect unbound by scriptural rule wanders far and wide
into speculations, fantasies, and bolstering human pride
no fear of God before their eyes no limit to their vanity
no slavery to the Lord is known, become wandering stars
of self achievement for whom blackness reserved forever.

[NickHassan]

musing stops where lordship starts we have but one teacher
no other man before or since has known the heart of God
enough to speak as if from Him, revealing plans and blessings
do not compare the Son of God with any other servant, man
or angel, his gospel never fades, all will be faced with him
someday, whom you have supported, preferred, he will know

[charity]

How did Satan get to go to church?
Everyone waits for relief, the second coming of Jesus
Yet they know not the coming and going of a thief.
The mystery of returning souls that have twice preached,
A Law, Jesus is not for yet, the pen of scribes is mightier than the sword
Five Kings came, and the sixth stood firm, the rest are spirits (souls) of the first Five Kings.
Singing on the earth, of chariot rides to heaven
And that man returned, born again of a womb of a woman
From the desert he comes, to many waters, baptizing rejecting vipers, Grace and mercy!
See here! when he comes, you shall know the days of the consuming fire have begun.
Then the sun of righteousness shall appear, as his Lamb to be slaughtered, leaving little teachings.
He new not they devised to have his life cut off, as a tree cut down, his fruit destroyed consumed and hidden.
Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:
When the Master die, the second in command moves up to lead the way, And where dose all end, devastation?
But the pen of the scribes are Mightier than the sword.
for they new not how! walk without a book.
-charity

the inspiration men all lack towards goodness and power
has always, will always come, from outpourings above
no vessel born can recreate, only ruin and devastate
unto the earth from whence they came all men aspire
without revival made in Him, from which He is the origin

Lyrics

Ring them bells, ye heathen
From the city that dreams,
Ring them bells from the sanctuaries
Cross the valleys and streams,
For they're deep and they're wide
And the world's on its side
And time is running backwards
And so is the bride.

Ring them bells St. Peter
Where the four winds blow,
Ring them bells with an iron hand
So the people will know.
Oh it's rush hour now
On the wheel and the plow
And the sun is going down
Upon the sacred cow.

Ring them bells Sweet Martha,
For the poor man's son,
Ring them bells so the world will know
That God is one.
Oh the shepherd is asleep
Where the willows weep
And the mountains are filled
With lost sheep.

Ring them bells for the blind and the deaf,
Ring them bells for all of us who are left,
Ring them bells for the chosen few
Who will judge the many when the game is through.
Ring them bells, for the time that flies,
For the child that cries
When innocence dies.

Ring them bells St. Catherine
From the top of the room,
Ring them from the fortress
For the lilies that bloom.
Oh the lines are long
And the fighting is strong
And they're breaking down the distance
Between right and wrong.

[NickHassan]

no more millstones, no more craftsmen, no more music so sweet,
no more weddings and funerals, incense, lamps and vestments
for the jezebel, the sorceress, now is lying in the street, naked,
helpless awaiting prophecy of doom for her deception of all men

[NickHassan]

i can give you what you want, power, glory, gold and jewellery
if just will follow the crowd, bow to mammon, and worship me
success is just around the corner no more need for anxiety
or would you rather be on breadlines praying for sustenance
or go searching in mouths of fish for pennies to pay the taxes
you don't need faith to follow me today eat drink and be merry

[NickHassan]

Spirit hovering and encompassing the stolen orb Satan given authority
but taking command god of this globe darkness over the face of the earth
light commanded timely order imposed refreshing plants and new life given
man drawn from the soil enlivened by breath natural follows the earthking
vain intellect and reason ruling over divine breath, God's greater response
His own Spirit entering earthly realm none can resist only choice is to obey
or join uselessness residue found in the crucible after fires have died down

if adam had not failed the test and given his allegiance to the devil
man might not have learned like all creation he is wed to corruption
reaching even to heaven's realm by God's tolerant and patient plan
true rescue can only come by God from Satan's masterly rebellion
to recreate in purity he sends His Spirit to empower the lowly men
of earth making rules for them to serve and hiding mysteries within
to mask His salvation, unforeseen above, that cannot be overcome

Are you out of your Sin?
Have you enough faith?
he took sin from the world
from the hands of the one that created it.

Have you Faith?
just to hear
Go Now your sins are all forgiven

Are you out of your Sins?
Have you enough Faith?
or shall you follow on under the Law
made for the faithless and unbelieving souls?

Have you ears and eye's
TO see how they do it,
understanding is to depart  evil.
Some follow that newly slashed path?
Worship to death destruction of Life

Have you faith enough?
Have you sure mercy
without Shedding blood for the thirsty
Standing under the cross, catching every drop.
The final offense
channels of Blood reach the sea

Have you enough faith?
Have you Understanding?
Will you wipe your Mouth …saying
I have done no wrong…..in
desiring the death of the Son of Man?

religious enchantment stolen rule pulpit paralysed people
deer in the headlights eternal children and followers of men
wake up and follow the Lord appointed who does not need
another mediator be guided by not shouted at, fed but not
dominated, feet on the path, walk while the light is with you

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
-George Bernard Shaw

The journey is the reward.
-Chinese Proverb

[NickHassan]

those sitting in darkness have seen a great light but some prefer darkness
never knowing of the light never knowing light exists they become like bats
preferring habits that need no light, flying in darkness to sunshine warmth
what we know is all that is what we see is all can be seen hopelessness is
the apex of life and depression becomes a way of life that ends in death

[NickHassan]

the accuser of the brethren points his finger of judgement at us
he has no right to accuse those who have crossed over unto life
there is no condemnation for those who are in the Lord as he has
died that we might live and live in abundance and the judgement is
now not according to sin but belief in Christ, but those stillborn ones
who never let the Spirit take control are sad wastrels as they cannot
bear fruit unto eternal life and the investment made in them will be
taken and given to others who have proved faithful in little things
for unless the Spirit of Christ takes root in us we are none of his.

[NickHassan]

over stepping stones of history we now face life's great moment
knowing others never saw that light or were given such a chance
to respond to heaven's missive grasping lifeline for our sake and of
others following behind us watching, gaining courage to take a hold
of faith and believe the words so beautiful, perhaps our response can
also bless our parents and their stock, the line of God's grace reaching
forgiveness further back for he is a God of love and He loves to bless and
not to cast a single life into a fire not prepared for men but for foolish angels

[NickHassan]

the vine makes wine from water no surprise
but the wine he makes is the best around
and when they had already drunk their fill
not a puritan, but friendly, let them have
a morning head for the bridegroom's come
to start a party, hurry, join in, shake a leg

[NickHassan]

he's just a glutton and a winebibber, not a nazirite like me
why won't he encourage folks to take our religion seriously
he mocks the leaders, breaks the rules, chaos in the temple
you'd think he was from above the way he ignores the rituals
so what if he can heal the sick and drive the demons into pigs
turning water into wine, raising the dead and cursing the figtree
i agree could be signs of God's blessing but other possibilities exist
some enjoy his teachings but unless he lifts his game my ears resist

[gentleness]

My Cat
I had a cat named Oreo,
He was black and white like a piano.
Then at the break of day
He ran away,
And we found him on the roadeo.
