Premium Member In Worshipping the Lord

In worshipping the Lord, we exalt His name*
   As the Creator Who remains immutably the same
   Along His resplendent holiness’ fame
   Around brightening majestic flame   
   Amidst our assured salvation-claim!!!
 
In worshipping the Lord, we extol His sovereignty
   As the Leader Who exercises supreme authority
   Along His infallible wisdom’s infinity
   Around unending ages toward eternity
   Amidst our heaven-sealed security!!! 

In worshipping the Lord, we expose His compassion
   As the Saviour Who cares with merciful devotion   
   Along His ready pardon’s provision
   Around redeeming sacrifice-function
   Amidst our hell-rescued soul’s condition!!!

*Isaiah 25:1 O LORD, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.

Premium Member Awesome Stars' Zeal

Awesome stars* are art works of the Almighty 
Beauteous midst darkness, sparkling bright
Creation masterpieces supremely crafted
Designed perfectly to serve as eyes’ delights.

Extolling the grandeur of divine excellence
Firmament jewels driving astronomic flight
Galaxy ornaments that mystify constellation gazers
Heaven’s wonders are stars** for promises’ hoisting
Influence-compass intensifying travel-impact
Journey-leader to magi searching the King of kings with joy.***

Kindling reality-awakenings for inquisitive kids
Lights are the stars**** along truth-seeking luminescence 
Marvels with wisdom-beam midst queries on magic or mystery 
Night’s treasures as “diamonds in the sky” bringing wealth nigh
Opening opportunities to dream and soar with optimism.

Potential inspiration and muse source for poetry
Quiet, yet clear witnesses of victims in their justice-quest 
Radiant gems to aspiring champions revealing rewards
Steadfast signs are assuring stars***** against skepticism
Testifying about timeless blessed celestial triumph.

Up above they are stars****** reflecting Christ’s glory ultimately 
Victorious in asserting faith that vanquishes vain vision
Watchfulness they show, glowing for guided winning
‘Xcellence marks their illumining expertise surpassing any x-ray
Yes, they are shining in the Scriptures today and yon
Zealously gleaming and glaring with enlightenment’s zest. 

*Genesis 1:16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
**Genesis 15:5 … Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them…
***Matthew 2:2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
****Jeremiah 31:35 Thus saith the LORD, which giveth …  the stars for a light by night
*****Luke 21:25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars.
******1Corinthians 15:41 There is … glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.

Behold the Present

Behold the Present

(ere truth be twisted)

Behold the present now: though Truth be rent,
And bent by Fate to counterfeit intent;
Reverse it, rend it—still the hour stands
To name thee won by no deferred commands.

The ages mask what breathes before their eyes,
They gild the lie and christen doubt as wise;
Yet every veil they draw, each fraud they spin,
But strips the world and hastens truth within.

For Truth bends not to time, nor tongue, nor crowd;
She waits while empires rise and fall unbow’d.
Stand here—no court beyond this breath is lent:
The sentence speaks: thou art now won, present.

His Wasteful Woman

yet it was something else
something we never knew
we'd hear or understand
conceptions with the sorting's
conceived thru togetherness
her beleifs were that dividing hers from mine
would create a togetherness
from her need of mine and hers
rituals without conception
concepts without realism
confussed from the lies
she alows herself to beleive
concepts of being right
when she's wrong
that her body might remedy from
one night, what havoc she's caused
over months of resistance
sing ye thou bassoon

from the Bass Cleft Essay Session Series,
Ecstasy and Beau-dikka: "rumps of a raging sea"
they Barest Oboe!
Mocking Boudicca from the
Bassoons in the stream. A story by
Wisswonn Dinner: Dessert Andherlove
let your reed vibrate the beauty
that each tone is heard and song to
listen that she will speak
than sing that she wishes
her bassoon heard

Death Do Not Boast

do not rejoice o’er her tho’ she lieth down 
she still lives on: she still speaks to our clan
as long as moon or star or sun does in an 
untiring journey like an old minstrel drums
along the many hazy river alleys thornfill’d
oh, death, thou shouldst speak unproudly
here beside our lively mother’s grave-stones -
thou art too timid & fearful to take the truth:
thou, death, were dead years back on a pole
where bled her saviour, our saviour – nay! 
death, thou shouldst be shame-fill’d or art 
thou too hasty to strike her down with a bow
that her saviour had broken on the cross?
do not rejoice o’er her tho’ she lieth down 
she still lives on: she still speaks to our clan.

Premium Member New World Corvid Pt 3

What is it why 
So morbid 
New war, Corvid 
Who is this new alien 
And is it from this world
Is he it totally  from sin nature
Is it he man made scientifical spiritual political 
Or All the Above who is it based on my choice opinion 
I just don't know is it political scientifical from our enemy 
Is it Red, shall we die
Will we all be dying and or dead
Genocide after me what is it 
Why so morbid New World Corvid 
You may be I'll be not free so what if I eat bats
 What do you and me call it
 That what's it about the delicacies 
Should we go back to Leviticus 
so we don't eat Eagles, Vultures, Kites 
Why we don't eat Crows, Ravens, Cormorants Gulls, and Hawks 
What is it 
why so morbid 
New World Corvid 
a sometime some Christians restrictions
a Judaism Islamic decision 
That thou shall not eat 
But what of Jesus
The more you know 
Death burial Resurrection had freed us 
From these laws 
Sin nature  free choice 
What is it why so morbid
 New World Court 
Just cause it may taste good doesn't make it right
And everything with all with fins and scales 
Shall we not eat 
The raw Mouse, Rat and Bats 
Even if you cooked  them??
Swarming flying insects unclean do not eat should we be Under the Leviticus laws again 
Could you imagine
Your now a new Citizen in...
CORVID NEW WORLD ORDER

If peace is better why war ?
If love is better why hatred 
If cold is better why khadighan 
Life is cruel but human are more crueler

Class above humanity 
Jealousy above compliment 
Enviness above jubilations 
Why thus thou thus 

Why the sudden change 
Interest of the world above care 
Illegal above success 
Why thus millions cry and few smile 

Children suffering and old enjoying 
Many sacred places and less hospitality 
Looks above sacrifice 
What changes human stereotype 

Once upon a time is opposite 
Silent over noise 
Love over evil and hatred 
Why was the sudden change 

Earth crust change it's ways 
Human lost his ways 
Culture lost it's value 
Nature lost it's dignity 

Parents lost their authority 
Leaders lost their power 
Maestro lost his batting 
The world need to go back to its previous ways
