Could'nt if I tried
That is, lay down and die.
Cause truth to tell
I died a long time ago, well
Living is dying and dying is living
which one you do is your decision.
Cling to this brief breath you call your life
and soon you'll find you've lost the right
to become who you're meant to be
instead you've chosen a calamity.
Let go of all you hold dear
give it up - let's be clear,
all that mankind values is in fact
worthless drivel, unfit for eternal tears, Jack...

Forgotten, soon after you've checked out
You won't be thinking about
What you've left behind,
No, what'll be on your mind
Will be all you could've gleaned
if you'd only accepted
your God's generosity....

                         pity

I'll never quit!

I refuse to lose!
You know it's true -
whatever you choose
is up to you....
but I,  I refuse to lose!

I won't quit though I fall on my face.
I won't quit, no I'll finish this race!
First or last place, I've made up my mind -
I'm gonna cross the finish line!

Whatever obstacles get in my way,
they'll be removed whenever I pray.
Yes, I'll keep tryin' like ol' Wile. E. Coyote,
till I've accomplished all God's told me...

I refuse to lose
You can bet on it
Because I choose
TO NEVER QUIT!!!

 

The saddest things

One of the saddest things I know
is a pen running out of ink,
a ship running out of water,
a desert without a drink.

What is sadder than an empty mailbox?
A dog without a master?
A key without a lock?
A book that goes unread?
A ticket that goes unused?
An apology that goes unsaid?
A mystery without a clue?
A pencil that's out of lead?

Now I know there are worse tragedies
in some lives.
And of them I'm not tryin' to make light,
but there are things such as I've named above
that I'd rather not know of....

Like hot fudge without ice cream.
A people without a vision
or a sleeper without a dream.
A judge without a decision,
a prophet without a tongue.
A surgeon without an incision,
a mother without a son.
A guitar without strings.
A bird without wings.
These are but a few of the saddest things.....

I was at a fish pond the other day.
I was there with Tiffany and Kari.
They fished Korean style - it was fun,
just kickin' back in the afternoon sun.
It got more exciting still when Kari caught one!
You should see the pictures, at least a foot long!
Now the policy of this particular pond is
after you catch em' you throw em' back in.
(the fish feels kind of like he's been born again).
But too many churches have a similar policy,
now don't go callin' this a heresy,
but when souls get "saved" they follow this trend -
they refuse to care for and disciple them,
instead they throw them into religion
and this, my reader, is a sin...
They should become disciples of Christ
led and taught by the Holy Spirit Himself.
They should soar high like eagles,
not become chickens in a pen.
They should bear much fruit unto Him
who purchased them with his precious blood.
They should with HIM, with Truth, fall in love...

Help!
