On This Day
All we, like sheep, have gone astray; 
And turned everyone to his own way;
The Lord hath said the words obey
It is to him we kneel and pray!...

Payback
Your Stimulus cheque has gone astray
To Trump Resorts for employee pay
With Trump to lead it
You know they need it
As they just might file "Bankrupt" today!...

Trump's Way Is Not Mine
Trump's Way Is Not Mine

Trump is not in my house on display,
And his way will never be my way;
Get a grip;
Lots of lip;
We think his brain has gone astray.

Dark Night
Oh dear dark night
Such as black ink
We lost our way. 
,
Oh dear dark night
Oh paths..
Returned our way to us
Or us to our way. 
Perhaps the souls who have gone astray
Come back to us...

Knots
Let me count the ways

The number of times my heart has gone astray

Oh how my stomach ties into knots

While something blocks my think box

Whenever you are near, it’s your voice I hear...

MOSQUITO IN WINTER

A mosquito hovering over me, nearly June,
With no direction whatsoever, well after noon,
This pest had lost its way,
Needed sun, had gone astray,
Fooled by the heat of today, will disappear soon!...

Peace
What have we got today,
The world has gone astray,
Why cant we all be happy,
Instead of war lets play,
Blood and guts is not a sight,  we really  want to see,
Why cant we enjoy life,   its for you and its for me,

She Will Find Her Strength
She will find her strength 
And simply walk away 
You have abused her a lot 
Your heart has gone astray 
She sadly drowns in tears 
Because, she had put her trust in you 
You never gave back to her 
You have torn her poor heart in two...

Finding Life's Grace
Birds gone astray
on whirlwind’s spray,
forlorn  my way
down avenue

Then  moonlight’s  trace
sparks newborn  grace--
as couples race
to feel bright dew.

Voice Within
As I sat and wondered what life was all about,
A chill ran quickly up my spine,
to that piercing haunting shout,
who are you I said quite frightened,
as that voice slowly sliped away,
I'm you replied the voice your life has gone astray.........

Rebuke the Wind and Water
Rebuke the wind and water,
Tell them not today.
stop the time and still my rhyme.
My love has gone away.

  Rebuff all life's advances
send back the proffered rose,
I've lost my breath
      in my love's death........
my dreams have gone astray....

What a Wonderful Sight
The wind blows
And the trees sway
The leaves rustle
There gone astray

The colors are bright
Just for the night
O' what a beautiful sight
From that stars light

I come to thee
With things to see
That is we
O' what a beautiful sight that is to be...

Premium Member Not My Will, But Thine Be Done
We like sheep have gone astray
from the path the Lord has willed -
each has turned to his own way
and for such, Christ's blood was spilled.

Asking, "Father fashion me
in the image of thy Son”;
may my sole petition be,
"not my will, but thine be done"....
