Premium Member Would You Still Love Me

Would you still love me
If I let down my smiling mask
The one making me seem so alluring
As to ignite in those who see me from afar
The greenish fires of Envy

Would you still love me
If I renounce of my alter ego
The one which everyone admires
And lauds, knowing not that deep down
I remain as simple as a blade of grass in a bouquet

Would you still love me
If I were made of disease
Porous, filled with venom
Yet, found there where it can be seen not
Meant to be revealed only if I deem it best to


Would you still love me? Oh I forgot, you love me not
How silly of me to ask you such stuff
As if, you really did love me
As if, you cared for that ugliness which I keep hidden
As if, you would dry those tears hidden in the sparkles of my eyes!

Endure the Thorn: How To Get Over What You Can'T Get Through

Paul had to defend his apostle position
and renounce all those false convictions
yes, he may have bragged a little about his own story
the day that he saw Jesus Christ in all His Glory
but Paul's head was not too big, he was aware of his place
he was not beside himself, he kept true to the faith

a thorn in his side, a most annoying appointing
but Paul endured It all for It was his anointing
once, twice, thrice Paul to God did comment
will you not remove this thorn and take away this torment
The Lord replied to Paul, "My power is perfect in your weakness,
My grace is sufficient, accept It In meekness"

there are many things you can't get over, but God will get you through
He has a lock on every situation, just allow Him to order you
God is in control, His hand is always in the mix
and no matter what's going down, only He can fix
for The Lord will give you what you need
have patience and wait on Him to do the deed
 
a thorn in his side, a painful contemplation
but Paul endured It all without any consideration
It takes a messenger of  Satan to come and buffer thee
but Satan is God's devil and God is the only authority
yes, God has a divine plane and He's in control of everything
yes, He has a need to know plan that only He will be revealing

just don't get caught up in yourself, for God will slap you around
The Holy Spirit will convict you and knock you to the ground
you will be kept in your place, you will suffer some persecution
allow God to gain His powers through your resolutions
for there is no testimony without a test
there is no glory without some gloom
no crown without the cross
no resurrection without the tomb
God's power is in your weakness
just endure as much as you can do
and If you can't get over It 
let God get you through

Premium Member Deliver Me


Vs 1.
Oh Lord I'm drowning in hopelessness 
I've fallen so far into this pit of despair 
You tried to lead me to safe pastures, I confess,
But blindly I turned away from there
Oh God I know the right ways you've shown
I've tried to be obedient to thee
But sin and self I've fed and grown
Till the spirit within me is weak

Chorus
Free me Father, Creator, Lord of all
The most high God, my King
Break these bindings that I've put on
To the breaking of chains melody I'll sing
No more will I allow the Enemy
To keep me down, and to humble me
For only to you Lord God will i bow 
Please, Free me, deliver me now!

Vs.2.
Oh my God, when i thought all hope was lost
And darkness the only sight I'd seen
A light shone bright upon the cross
Where Jesus suffered and died for me
Heavenly Father I ask you on my knees
Send your Holy Spirit in love and power
In this Spirit, with these gifts, baptize me
Like rain revives a wilting flower

Chorus
Free me Father, Creator, Lord of all
The most high God, my King
Break these bindings that I've put on
To the breaking of chains melody I'll sing
No more will I allow the Enemy
To keep me down, and to humble me
For only to you Lord God will i bow 
Please, Free me, deliver me now!

Tag/ Bridge:
Holy Spirit come, abide in me
Oh Jesus God's Son, I'll confide in thee 
Father divine, I will hide under your wings
My refuge and my guide,  Holy Trinity

I renounce sin and evil deeds 
I renounce Satan the Enemy
In the name of Jesus Christ my King
Deliver me deliver me

Chorus
Free me Father, Creator, Lord of all
The most high God, my King
Break these bindings that I've put on
To the breaking of chains melody I'll sing
No more will I allow the Enemy
To keep me down, and to humble me
For only to you Lord God will i bow 
Please, Free me, deliver me now!

Premium Member The Heavens

The heavens, 
Of reaching them, have I set my aim
In their essence do I dwell
From their roots do I originate
And in them,
Lies my heart!

Yet, I shall renounce of them
Shall it be
That the whispers of the night
Scathe me!

I shall renounce of them
As, how am I to enjoy them
If I shall have to enjoy their
Thousands of moons
All alone?

I shall renounce,
Even if such shall hurt the Gods
I shall renounce,
As my cause remains that of love,
Love which have been paved
Here, in a realm which makes the purity
Of its bond even more difficult
Love, which has its meaning in the stars
Love, on which relies the cosmos
To keep its beating heart on!

Pray,
After all,
I did choose to fall for the sake of this love
I did choose to fall on an Earth
Which laughs at the misery of its children
I did choose to fall 
Merely because the love willed to me
Clawed at my heart, tearing it into tiny pieces!

Being happy requires being selfish
In my selfishness
I choose to renounce of the heavens
Even if such would require
That my soul ceases to be!

Why, I remain, here
A puppet dancing to the tunes of fate
I remain, here
A being whose life belongs not to her
I remain, here,
As seaweed, drifting at sea
Pulled by the tides,
Or wilting on the shores
As long as I remain of use to those powers
Watching over me!

But the pain is getting harsher,
And harsher
As if it were the dagger of gloom
Pleasuring itself in plunging into the 
Softest parts of my mortal body
Laughing at the blood being drawn from it
Enjoying my tears
And my despair!

It is all a matter of time
It is just one life
I shall have not another
The heavens,
Of the hope they give do I 
Build my strength
But I shall renounce them
If such would be required!

If They Persecuted Me

If they dare persecute me, let it come,
And should you ever ask, I would tell:
I constructed a faith like Noah’s Ark,
No flood nor storm could dare dispel.
A century I’d give, like Joan of Arc,
To break a deceitful Satan.

I’m a Perpetua and Felicity,
In devotion and love,
In the search for eternity,
For the true kingdom above.

I would be the last-day Stephen,
Thrust to rest for steadfast faith.
I will walk on along the path
Of a faith the grave cannot claim.
I’ll be another Paul too and Peter,
Since I cast away the fear of Agrippa.

I refuse to renounce my trust,
‘Tis not the chopping of my head that hurts
‘Tis your failure to grasp the truth
The light of the Son, the world was blest
That guides my soul to Almighty God
At His throne, on my day of judgement,
I’d hope for the other side of the sword
A kinder side, a righteous one
a Christian soul is meant to be.

America: Land of Glory

My burdened country, tis of thee
Still beautiful are its halcyon skies
America! Free of woes we long to be.
God, shed Your grace upon blind eyes.
Unite us with love and brotherhood
Enlighten our hearts to do only good.

Make us torchbearers for a better life
to achieve all our hopes and dreams.
Rid us of the political woes and strife...
the past four years of lies and schemes.
America! We've lived in days of fears
It's time to stop spilling sorrowful tears.

As imperfect humans, we all have flaws
America!   America! The country we love.
There's a reason we should obey its laws
God commands it from his throne above.
Across the plains and from sea to sea
We're thankful for mountains of majesty.

We renounce slander against your name
by those who smear and propagandize.
Prigs who harass and vilify with false claim
that America is a country without a heart
but that kind of attitude is one we chastise.
America! This is just a chapter in your story.
Your light will shine again in wondrous glory.

I Blame Me

I blame me for all my mistakes
I blame me for all the rejection and heartache
I blame me for all the times I stayed silent 
and should have started and earthquake
with my words
I should have spoken up when I had the chance
now all those thoughts are wasted
unspoken, unheard

I blame me when my husband touches me 
and I feel the hands of a predators pounce
And I blame me when the pressure it on
because all I had to do was shout out and renounce His name
Lord, help me to get rid of the shame

I blame me for my loneliness
I blame me for my feelings of lust
I blame me when I look at myself and see absolute disgust
I blame me when I shut down - unsure of who to trust
At times not even sure if I really know how to love

I blame me when my kids are crying out sick
because when I brought them here
I knew that this world was unfit
Yet overpowered by my love for them 
I became more and more protective
So I blame myself in advance for their sadness
when they finally see that the world is not objective

I blame me for those nights I can't rest
Wondering if my consciousness has finally realized
that I have done my best
to stay positive and have good intentions
So I blame myself when I give in to temptations and my human inhibitions
and begin to feel ashamed of myself
I begin to feel like I don't have enough strength to love myself
because
good things don't happen for me
So I blame me for my thinking and feelings of worthlessness

It's a big world and my lonely soul has no more confidence
I have nothing
I have given up 
and so I blame me for my incompetence and my soul's rut

Spur of the Moment

When you plan something spur of the moment,
At first you feel proud and in charge,
But the longer you think,
It will end in a blink;
Then the doubts stumble in and loom large.

I need time to mull over my choices,
Possibilities I can assess,
Weighing good points and bad,
What will make me feel glad
And eliminate what might cause stress.

Sometimes, though, I can’t make a decision
And the plans do not ever get made,
So perhaps if I pounce
I might get to renounce
Hesitations that make me afraid.

If the scale tips one way or another,
Either method can end up with doubt,
But at least if you book,
Then by hook or by crook,
An adventure you won’t do without.

Premium Member Let Me Into Your Heart

If the power of the mystery of Existence
And life
Did whisper truth to my ears
Why, it would seem that the one to save my soul
Is just a heartbeat away!
Yes, for my cause, he fell
From the abode of grace and stability
For my love
He accepted to let go of his ruling ego
And he did, so subtly, 
Infiltrate into my own macrocosm
To totally submerge my ethos
With the many butterflies swirling
In mad ecstatic glee in his own microcosm!

Why, it would seem that he holds the key 
To the padlock of my heart
It would seem that he knows how to take me
There, to that land found beyond the clouds
There, from where we fell
There, the abode all earthlings yearn for
There, where we shall go after our journey ends here!

Pray, if only, if only I could be given an entry point
Into his heart
I would have read and noted all the engravings
Found on the walls thereof
And I would have made of them, the stories of our lives!
Yes, if only I could let my senses be submerged in 
The engulfing essence therein
I would have penned more elevating words of poetry
Pray, if I could just wriggle myself in
Propelled by a warm touch and by an equivalent desire
Why, I could have created for us,
An abode on Earth, same as the one from which we fell
To allow us both
To live in sooth and to make of our stay
Worthy of being humanity's love's balm!

Why, to allow the taste of my savior's rapture
To stay forever imprinted in the very depth of my soul
I shall even renounce the world
Yes, for, of what use is a temporary and fluctuating world
When the glory of eternity shines forth!

If God’s omnipresent, we must see Him,
feeling His love and light in each heartbeat,
else we roam rudderless at ego’s whim,
twirled about by fate, feeling incomplete.
Upon making God search, our earnest wish,
we begin by slowing the speed of thought,
every imagined knowing relinquish,
that learning by touch, we become self-taught.
We renounce attachment, desire and fear,
looking in instead, for the source of life
and in timeless time sense God’s presence near,
felt as magnetism, making us bliss rife.
Complete surrender is the way to start, 
our shift involves melding head with the heart.

Our shift involves melding head with the heart,
rekindling innate innocence childlike
and upon choosing to add love to cart,
as blessings in-pour, we feel bliss beats spike.
Essentially, what’s happening is this:
one that became two, again becomes one,
we may take to be Divine Mother’s kiss,
igniting our core, like the central sun.
Holy Spirit, kundalini or chi,
as God’s breath is labelled across the world,
is the force that enables us to see,
glory of God, when flag of love’s unfurled.
He is both immanent and transcendent;
each breath is grace, on God’s will dependent.

Each breath is grace, on God’s will dependent
but we are one with Him, cleaved from His light
and as such we’re His direct descendant,
made as is He, known when we gain clear sight.
This truth has been affirmed from time to time,
by saints and sages, all across the globe,
counselling us to heed our inner chime
for which ego cravings, we must disrobe.
Once we are empty, we invoke God’s grace
and so become the vastness of the sky,
holding God’s hand, seeing Him face to face,
here, whilst we’re alive and not when we die.
Even though the light in our eyes grows dim,
if God’s omnipresent, we must see Him.
