I have journeyed through life's rough terrains
I know what it is like to be in pains
From life's sour fruit I ate
While wondering what was my journey's fate
I saw him, he saw me
We both knew what was supposed to be
Sadly understanding was what we lacked
In my mind every pain caused was marked
I was so angry, where was he?
Was this how much he demanded for a fee?
If he didn't listen
Then my heart would harden
Why the pain, anger and tears?
Didn't he care about my fears
For every moment I spent lonely
I felt quite silly
Then came redeeming love
For the far-off, forsaken and gentle as a dove
To fix what was broken
To help the downtrodden
Now I see his face
But I still don't see my place
Doesn't mean I can forget
The shadows over me like a silhouette
All promises he made
To help now seem to fade
Dear father up high
Won't you help your little child?

Never let the darkness,
Fade your inner light,
Just burn a bit more bright,
And shine like the stars at night.
walk with the colonies of light,
break forth the bondage of darkness
redeeming your light
let it not depart from your life
Invade the Gates of darkness
never let them overcome your brighten
live and brought out From darkness
never let them stay behind you
Of all challenge and problems
let your light deem like brighten stars
Let all worries away
and keep shining your way
All challenges and problem will ends soon
Keep hope and continue shining

soft mist falls silent, gentle as a prayer on the dreaming mountains
breath of hope arrayed in luminous light beckons the gleaming mountains
graceful praise lifts to the skies, poetry rousing the heart
pouring faith through the oaks and pines, treasures alive on the screaming mountains
darkness fades into melancholy and recedes into the moon's dance with the stars
rising in a fog that whispers through the night, enchanting the scheming mountains
shimmering leaves waltz with the cries of a colorful display promising serenity
lighting the soul with comforting thoughts built by the flames of these redeeming mountains
cloudless skies in hues of azure welcome the love bouncing to life in the McIntosh spirit
her burning smile, both tender and wild, brightening with esteeming mountains

PSALM of Lost Words***
,My soul weeps
As the words are lost —
Like the decaying leaves of autumn,
Laying heavy from the frequent
Spring rains and —
after months of winds blown —
Massing along fence bases, waiting
To be shred and swept over new
growing grass —
Merely words, joined from running
Thoughts, which also seem quietly
Massed these days when there has
Been little more than sleep...
Forgive me, my sweet soul!
Do not weep...As I breathe
I yet exalt our redeeming king.
May I send to you
Again soft songs from my heart.
The joy of the poetry between us
Will rise to echo onwards;
To gather even from the dust
Some pastel particles to paint
New visions
In new light:
The living poetry
That dances in our souls.
Holy! Holy!
Selah.

Redeeming Faith in God
Redeeming Faith – quiet companion of Hope
Steps out on ledges where we fear to go;
Embraces doubt on stumbling feet –
Strong arms of the Covenant - now complete.
A light through the valley where shadows gather;
Arms wide open lead to Son, Spirit, Father;
Sends up shooting stars with blazing light -
Strength in weakness – a nova so bright.

Lord,
love*
of Yours
redeemed me…
ransoming my soul;
granting me everlasting life.
Now, by faith’s eyes, I look unto You, my dear Saviour...
abiding in You, serving gladly indeed, reaching-out with compassion from the heart.
*Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Features Redeeming and Streaming
May forget which features were redeeming;
Great qualities that in should be streaming;
All in full sight;
Okay and right,
And did appear in thoughts while dreaming.

Christ Redeeming People
While Christ many people was redeeming
Around His face a bright light was beaming
Which forever we knew continued to shine
On each Sunday commune with and do dine
And into church they started streaming.

Redeeming Feautures
One of my features which would redeem
Is I always liked eating cold ice cream
With whipped cream and many nuts
Hearing natives singing from huts
And clams when they start to steam.

REDEEMING MY I.O.U.
by
JOHN
While in my youth I was faced with a dire need
An issue that threatened my path to succeed
My options were fading then I met an elderly pair
Informed of my quandary they elected to share
They were not wealthy in a material sense
Willing to offer assistance without recompense
I accepted their offer and went on my way
With a solemn oath to someday repay
Years passed before I could honor my word
Their heavenly journey had already occurred
Guilt haunted me due to my procrastination
I needed to satisfy my moral obligation
I met a young man claiming dire duress
Fiscal problems prevented his path to success
What someone did for me I now will do for you
You are my last chance to redeem my I.O.U.
I expect no recompense but leave an onus on you
Someday you will need to honor your I.O.U.

All of God's people on the earth
have received a gift so rare
it's for the few of this world
Jesus gives to those that's His heir
This gift is divinely inspired
sent by God for His own select
so we experience God's salvation
the best gift ever to collect
We receive this gift by faith
which is also given free
but needs exercised for action
to believe this get on your knee
Thanking God for this indescribable gift
to you been given redeeming grace
wonderful awesome undeserving
redemption God's perfect ace
Ephesians 2:8 - For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God:

Teaming and Redeeming
On Sunday sure always seems to me
That at church is perfect place to be
For al least an hour there should stay
Until heaven finally have found the way.
All of my many emails have been deleting
Me and my Master soon will be meeting
Died and am in heaven where you stay alive
Never need to have my horrible hard drive.
In heaven no one ever runs short of storage
Of computerized things have a severe shortage
God's data base is best one you'll ever find
So you might as well leave yours behind.
Every sin you have in your bright brain cell
Each one should be sent straight to hell
When God and you are together double-teaming
Face will be beaming while results are redeeming.

that even though you had not a cent
to your name, even though
you had a string of broken
relationships left in your wake,
even though you mentioned that
your lives were not
compatible (in any way, shape or
form), even though you didn’t
want the things that she wanted in
the “future” (hell, you don’t even
use the mother****ing word),
she swore that she could

you,
she swore that she could

she swore that she could

so you looked & acted just a lil’ more
like
she

oh, what a ****ing shame that all these
plans & strategies
that she had ready to apply,
were not redeeming qualities
in
your
eyes.
