For why will you die oh Israel?
Have you forgotten my Name?
Do you not hear the calling of Your Lord?
Are you deaf to His beloved voice?
Oh why is it that you hear not the bells?
They toll for thee!
Have you forgotten all the promises?
Do you worship other gods before me?
What of our covenant?
What of the promises I offered to thee?
Where are the lamps I asked you to keep ready?
Has the time passed and you have forgotten?
Has the bridegroom been away too long?
I am here! I am ready! I am waiting!
All you need do is ask!
My angels await thy call!
They are there beside you!
They do my bidding!
My cup runneth over but I will not wait for ever!
My patience is great but I cannot bear to see thee thus!
My tears they pour like rain and I am waiting still!
Please come before it is too late!

Deep purple and emerald green
Deep purple and emerald green: regal colours fit for a queen
No queen am I and yet the colours mean a lot to me.
I do not claim to be anything much and yet I claim to be a lot
For you see I am indeed descended from royalty.
Not of human kind I claim but this I cannot deny
For in this kingdom now and forever more
As you who read the words do know: I am sure of which I speak.
Though I walk these dusty roads I look forward to a greater life
That in Heaven without strife: among the treasured halls above.
This is promised me with love: for no other do I claim
As my Father and my brother: I claim the role of His daughter
But dear Holy Jesus Lord of all: His kingdom is my inheritance
From His throne of majesty He does rule in my heart and soul
And so He will for ever more!

Dear Angels
Dear angels are you near to me?
I feel your touch and know
The answer to my quest is yes!
You help me always; day and night
You minister unto me
Your comfort there encircles me
I know that you are here
I thank the Lord continually
For the grace that keeps me strong
And helps me know that I am loved
Because He sends you every day
To keep me safe and show where I belong!

Bought and paid for
The story is long and known by all
So why is it so difficult to accept the call?
We are all but commodities, lined up along a shelf and
Dear Jesus came with His hands so dear and
Swept us all into His heart: took us to the counter there and
Paid for us all in coin and sweat and tears
This coin He used to pay the price?
His own precious blood of course!
This He willingly gave for us: not because of self
He did it because He knew: He didn't want us to be
Thrown upon the garbage heap!
So now we know that we are bought and paid for!
What difficulty is there then?
All we need to do is look around: see all the pain for us He withstood
As He was nailed to that cross: as He mourned and cried for us
What we owe Him in return is just to look upon His face
And say "Thank You dear Lord for saving me!"
Not such a great sacrifice expected in return!
But in saying these words: there comes the day
When we must realize: like sheep branded by the farmer's iron
We too are branded deep but this brand
Cannot be seen by earthly eyes because it is
Inside our beating hearts: it is there that Jesus sees His brand
Upon the flesh He bought: the brand is seared and living there
Blood red and etched so deep!
Property of Jesus Christ: If you should find
This lost sheep: return to heaven for reward!

As you are
You don't have to be perfect
To be accepted by the Lord
Dear God in heaven is
The perfection we adore!
In His perfect love He gave
His greatest pearl of greatest price
To be our perfect sacrifice
The purest Lamb in His dear eyes
Was given to pay our price
Dear Jesus took upon His heart
Our painful lives and gave His blood
That we might be saved this cost
He has done His part and now
As the price is already paid
There is little that He asks in return
But that we understand His sacrifice
And not let it have been done in vain
How precious and beautiful
His love is for so unworthy a mob
Yes! Dear Jesus has offered up
His life for ours instead
And now all we need do
Is accept His gracious gift
Already He is waiting!
To collect our lives in return!
To take us home to heaven!
To keep us by His side!
To live there eternally!
As the jewels in His dear crown!
What is there to think about?
What contemplation now required?
All is already done!
All the hard work as desired
Was completed all those years ago
Over two thousand years in fact!
Now the time is come!
Now the time is here!
Now is the due date!
Now is the time to state!
Now to accept the price!
And say "Yes! I accept Jesus' sacrifice!"
To be accepted by the Lord
Dear God in heaven is
The perfection we adore!

His greatest pearl of greatest price

Angelic acupuncture
When pain rules and sends me spiralling into the depths of despair
When nothing soothes the angry beast: when nothing makes it easier to bear
Before I give in to tears of frustration that's when I need help the most
From my dearest Lord in Creation: it is when the pain is winning
That I must retrace my steps to the beginning
It is thus I surrender to the heavenly domain and ask for help
In containing that ghastly pain: so down I lay me on the bed and
As I do surrender to that peaceful refrain: then and only then do the angels appear
As I surrender up my burden: the relief I request is given with Love unheard of
I ask for my angelic friends to touch and ease to finally release the tensions and contractions
In muscles tight and bunched as I mentioned: I ask for help and it is given
I feel their touch as light as air upon my skin and on my hair
As they go about their healing attentions: when I ask for angelic acupuncture
I feel their touch at potent junctions: where the senses know of sweet release
There I find my blessed peace, with touch and press and sweet intervention.
I thank you Lord for blessing me with Thy heavenly attendants as they ease and
Send my pains to another dimension! I send my thanks to heaven bounding
As feathery touches take away that pain that was so cruel and completely astounding!
So thank you Lord for saving me from bitter pain and frustration!

A prayer for my Lord's control 30/7/11
Lord heal my weak and earthly body
Lord take my mind and make it whole
Lord help me be a better person
Lord take and cleanse my soul
Without you I am less than nothing
Without you I am not anything at all
'Tis only with you that I can make it
'Tis only with you that I am worthwhile
I pray you live inside this heart here
I pray you take sure and sole control
I was but dust before you touched me
I am but lifeless like a doll
You: my dearest Lord and Saviour
You: make my life worthwhile
You send my heart a leaping
You send my soul in flight
I feel your love within this shell here
I feel your blood pulsing in my veins
I know you are here to stay Lord
I know your strength is at my call
You: Lord are my salvation
You: Lord are my all!
Lord take my mind and make it whole
Lord help me be a better person
Lord take and cleanse my soul
Without you I am less than nothing
Without you I am not anything at all
'Tis only with you that I can make it
'Tis only with you that I am worthwhile
I pray you live inside this heart here
I pray you take sure and sole control
I was but dust before you touched me
I am but lifeless like a doll
You: my dearest Lord and Saviour
You: make my life worthwhile
You send my heart a leaping
You send my soul in flight
I feel your love within this shell here
I feel your blood pulsing in my veins
I know you are here to stay Lord
I know your strength is at my call
You: Lord are my salvation
You: Lord are my all!
