When was the last time

When was the Last time 
When was the Last time you stepped out of the 4 walls in your mind 
And set under the stars and dream the dreamers dream that was once part of who you were
When was the last time you set with your feet dangling in the cool rippling water 
Beneath the shade tree of a lazy river as you set your thoughts free 
It just you your maker and the beauty that it came to be 
When was the last time you set your own self interest aside and loved with your heart open wide 
Let those feelings inside let true freedom reside
So don’t let when was the last time be the last time you open your heart and your mind to a greater Devine larger than the 4 walls in your mind that trapped you for a time

Tear Drops From Heaven

I often look upon the rain with wonder and amazement of all the power it does hold

Wich leads me to ponder the meaning of it all 

The rain brings forth life and nutures the ground it quenches your thirst 

It drowns out sorrows and washes away the past it makes things pure again just like in the days of Noah 

Its tear drops from heaven Gods tear drops that rains down upon us as he cries out for his people and to his people 

So where do you stand with these tear drops in your hand

WAKE UP!!!!

In the echoes of the night the one lonesome sound of a train not knowing where it’s bound 
It rolls on past the towns the rivers and the bends around corners unseen
As danger lays in wait anticipating contemplating its next move along the cold steel rails that’s bound for heaven or bound for hell only time will tell 
The warning signs are there the whistle is sounding  “ DANGER DANGER”  but it  keeps on rolling this steam locomotive 
WAKE UP WAKE UP one lone voice calls out in the night your headed for DANGER but it  keeps on rolling this steam locomotive 
On down the rails it rolls  when once again the whistle is sounding ‘DANGER DANGER ‘ as the one lone voice calls out in the night WAKE UP WAKE UP  your headed for DANGER 
Now is the last chance who is it at the helm 
check with your conductor 
Is it Satan headed for Hell
Or Jesus Headed for Heaven
