Messiah's Presence

how dare you
how dare I 
how dare we
reject the only one most high 
from birth you come 
from death you go 
but he alone remains to and fro 
believe it or not 
it is true

what being art thou
who shines brighter than morning sun
what being art thou 
whose strength holds the earth together 
what being art thou 
who cannot be seen by the canal
what being art thou 
who has no sin
what being art thou 
whose love treasures us above all else

this being is the Lord of Terra 
the alpha and omega 
the lion of the tribe of Judah 
the ever shinning star
the emblem of joy 
the one whom I am proud to be his son

we pray to thee to enter your light 
we pray to thee to give me thy strength 
we pray to thee to see thy beauty 
we pray to thee to be with us 
we pray to thee to accept us 
we pray to thee to enter thy love 
and we pray for you 
to join us 
in our journey towards the light 
beware 
we ain't going down without a fight

Happy Birthday

happy birthday

I woke up in the morning to aroused by the songs of the birds
I opened my windows and was 
received by the gentle wind 
I went outside and was. mesmerized by the beauty of nature 

today is special 
but how could it be 
everything seemed fine till 
a thought came to me 
today was thy birthday 
nothing more so special 
I mean even nature knew this too 

how splendid you are 
how precious you are 
to me 
and to all around you
with overflowing joy
I cry
Happy birthday
