I Found Them All Drunk
Well I found them all drunk
Not a dry mouth around
And my heart rightly sunk
For the sons of man.
Yes, they are blind in their souls and their eyes won’t believe
For empty they came in this world and empty they’ll leave.
Tonight, I found them all drunk.

Oh, Jehovah

Oh Jehovah
Oh Jehovah, if that is your real name
I’m afraid we’ve missed your boat, I’m afraid you’ve sailed away
Oh Jehovah, if that is your real name
I’m afraid I’ve lost my poise, I’m afraid I’ve gone astray
I ate from the tree and I learned
Wrestled with the Devil and I burned
I have failed you I have failed you
Drove a nail into the son of mankind
Touched the face of evil and it was mine
And if all this is the product of your song
How can it be wrong?
How can it be wrong?
How can it be wrong?\
How can it be wrong?

The Stranger

Here comes the stranger, just like a vapor
No pen and paper to write it all down.
Here comes the stranger, so slow to anger.
Poses no danger to anyone around
They cast their stones with aim to kill
No more is offered each day
Cast my lot to see his will
Stray dogs cast an evil eye
But the high horse won’t even look my way.
Here come the Sons of Light
They dress in the warmest clothes
Speak in the softest tones.
That nobody ever hears / understands
Here come the Sons of Light
They cull back for new growth
One fate befalls us both
The lost and the found
How small a whisper do we hear
These are but the fringes of His way
Darkness plays a song that rings with fear
Light pushes through the crowd
But who knows how long the light will stay.

Hard Saying

Hard Saying
That’s a hard saying, Lord. Who could bare it, Lord
Will you leave? And follow me no more?
I need a quiet place, Lord. Without a fireplace, Lord
Where what each wall hears, Lord
It soon forgets.
I need a bright light, Lord. Middle of the night, Lord
No telephone, Lord, to dial up regrets.
I need a quiet head, Lord. I need to make my bed, Lord.
I need to make some space, Lord
To hear your voice.
You never blink your eyes, Lord
No footprints left behind, Lord.
Never cast a shadow, Lord
Or a net for me.
That’s a hard saying, Lord. Who could bare it, Lord
Will you leave? And follow me no more?
I need some darkness, Lord.
The kind that starts with, Lord
A heavy set, Lord, of weighted motel drapes.
A bedside stand, Lord
That holds within, Lord
The only plan, Lord.
For my escape.

Stop and Go Love

Stop and Go Love
You don’t have to praise me. Praise songs they can’t save the
Ones who can’t help themselves.
A revolution would be fine, but nobody has the time/mind to revolt.
How dare you say you love me when you don’t?
I am Faith
That is yet to be seen
I am Hope
That fills in between
I am peace
But the greatest of these,
I am Love, stop and go love.
If life is a vapor, then no pen and paper
Can keep your directions clear.
A taste of the fruit,
A taste of the vinegar and gall.
Let the rich man bury us all.
I am Faith
That is yet to be seen
I am Hope
That fills in between
I am peace
But the greatest of these,
I am Love, stop and go love.
30 pieces of silver, the price to mend and heal,
The cost of a slave and enough for the potter’s field.
We all expect the fires of Hell to slowly take our breath
But we all line up and freeze to death
I am Faith
That is yet to be seen
I am Hope
That fills in between
I am peace
But the greatest of these,
I am Love, stop and go love.

Jesus Built

Jesus Built
Been in the fiery furnace for how long nobody knows
Hope the Lord can get the smell of smoke out of my clothes.
The road to redemption is riddled with potholes
Our young Davids can’t fight modern giants in Saul’s ill-fittin’ clothes
Knock on yourself
Like you knock upon the door
Walk on yourself, in a straight line across the floor.
Ring the bell, light the lamp within your house
End the sleep that weighs heavy on your brow.
Jesus built a sturdy piece of furniture and his hands they calmed the seas
His voice snuffed the fire deep within my head
And he told me to stay off my knees.
Let him who seeks keep seeking til he finds the way
He’ll fret and walk the floor til the break of day.
When he wakes, he’ll find himself before the former kings
They’ll smile and touch his hair and he will rule all things.
Knock on yourself
Like you knock upon the door
Walk on yourself, in a straight line across the floor.
Step out of the dark, grab hold of the reigns of your fate.
Never let a lie, and never do what you hate.
Jesus built a sturdy piece of furniture and his hands they calmed the seas
His voice snuffed the fire deep within my head
And he told me to stay off my knees.
