Wisdom and Knowledge

Wisdom can be contained in a rectangular prism
but if summoned it commeth forth surpassing any intention
making its limits endless when it starts it never is finished
and all against it is defenseless hence it handles its business
to go against it would be senseless since it thoroughly mentions
its vengeance is intensive to the point where no one can vent it
and it replenishes itself learn and you'll be a witness
to its insintive couse wisdom comes from another demintion

and its cousin is Knowledge but not the Knowledge of college
a knowledge that's polished with logic that can only be solid
it's like a wallet full of dollars but is not of the pocket
and it's fondest of surprises but its prizes are promised
to be diagnostically honest on whatever the topic
diabolical Know it all an argument is uncommon
acknowledge that like its cousin it can not be abolished
only wisdom can mock it also know that wisdom is wisest

Countless In His Grace

Countless men have tried
and countless men have failed
divide God amongst them each
and countless men prevail
countless men will stumble
and countless men will fall
if countless men were humble
then I Am carries them all
countless men have hurt 
and countless men have pained
but if they pray their pains will cease
like countless drops of rain
countless are the men who say 
they want to see Gods face 
but countless times the great divine 
has only shown his grace.

Better Half

Instead of killing one another
we should learn to heal each other;
Instead of stealing from each other
we should give to one another;
Instead of lying all the time 
we should speak forth only truth;
In the  midst of what's destroyed 
you could be created new;
If the bad outweighs the good 
there is something you could do;
Slowly cast away your hate
until Gods' love shines through you;
Don't let the devil use you
with his lies and yet he laughs;
'cause his smile turns to a frown,
if learned to use your better half

Eternity

Eternity enchanted by beauty unseen,
a fantasy hidden like treasure you'd dream,
the smell of the air is so sweet I can't think;
The animals there are like words I can't speak;
A dieties palace, A kings paradise,
with no troubles or worries, now that would be nice;
Everybody shows love no hate is up there;
Have mercy dear God I can't wait to get there.

Eternity doomed full of mustily filth, 
scorching flame every pain you forever shall feel,
its rottenous maggot filled fungus is gross;
The things you see there frighten whole gangs of ghosts;
Saint Nick with his pitchfork, and horns like a bull,
is a king who rules over his servants too cruel;
and the chaos he brings on the earth is none near, 
to the chaos you'll see if you end up down there.

Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd and Iam his sheep
I strayed and he left ninety nine to find me
I shan't want desires, but things that I need
he's knowledgeable of in due time I receive
He maketh me lie in the pastures of green
and beside the still waters it is I who he leads 
he restoreth my soul as he shows me the way
to righteousness for his exalted names sake
though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil for I am wise in my steps
thy rod and thy staff they do comfort my soul
as weapons to devour that serpent of old
you prepare a table before me in the presence of my foe
and anoint me with oil 'till my cup overloads
surely goodness and mercy shall stay with me through life 
and I'll dwell in Gods' kingdom where there is no night.

Nothing Wrong With Being Good

There's nothing wrong with being good it's also not that hard
hold on to God instead cuz everything relies on God 
your troubles turn to joy and your worries turn to peace
your wants will fade away and your needs will be received
your anger blooms to happiness your rain turns to shine
and till you just stop actin BAD you won't have a GOOD time

The Only One

The only one who's pure enough 
the only one who's true enough
the one and only son of God 
who's truly faithful through enough
the shepherd of the sheep and lamb
the savior and martyr of man
he's always there through thick and thin
to see you through and hold your hand
