God's Life With Us and More
God's life with us will always be unending,
Even though much about world is offending;
For His sake,
Me in will take;
Son to save from sin soon again is sending.
We have a priest who insists on incense;
Always will want its use and never relents;
Things creating;
Is irritating,
And of mercy we are seeking God's agent.
Incense is very bothersome especially
for us church members. It should cease.
Oh horrors God may be sealing our doom;
While in church incense started to loom,
And by some,
Were overcome;
It would not be swept away with a broom.
When we did look deeply into the dawn,
Did die and back to heaven have gone;
Read the list,
Of many I missed,
And then returned to be with Holy One.
When like others you will want to feel,
You do need to have nerves of steel;
By priest impressed,
We have confessed,
And both together eat the same meal.
Jesus loving shepherd I shall seek,
Even though I worry and am weak;
May struggle much;
Want God's touch;
My performance God insures its peak.
While on earth God made me the best;
Older you become is harder to digest;
Stand in rain;
From sin abstain;
Now in a grave I have been laid to rest.
My Almighty may be like an amaryllis;
With love and beauty he will thrill us,
Have fought,
To learn a lot;
With Him more things want to discuss.
