Sunday's On The Way...also the very first poem I ever wrote, etc

Sunday's On The Way

The Champion

He's Alive

CAUSE WE LOVE HIM

HE SENT THEM OUT, SOME TWO BY TWO

AND THEY WENT THOUGH THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO

OF HIS WILL AND HIS WANT, THEY HAD BARELY A CLUE
BUT THEY WERE SENT AND THEY WENT CAUSE THEY LOVED HIM.

THEY WENT THROUGH THE HIGHWAYS AND HEDGES AND THORNS

THEY WERE PELTED WITH STONES AND WERE TAUNTED BY SCORN
THEY WERE RIDICULED, MOCKED FROM THE DUSK TO THE DAWN
BUT THEY WERE SENT AND THEY WENT CAUSE THEY LOVED HIM.

MIRACLES HAPPENED AND THE CROWDS LARGE THEY GREW

HEALINGS AND DELIVERANCES AND SALVATIONS TOO
DEMONS RAN OUT WHEN THEY WERE COMMANDED TO
AND THE DISCIPLES' FAITH GREW CAUSE THEY LOVED HIM.

AND TIME WENT ON AND THE CHURCH GREW IN NUMBER

THERE WAS LITTLE TIME FOR SLACKING AND NO TIME FOR SLUMBER
LOST HUMANITY GOT FOUND AND THE WORLD WEPT AT THE WONDER
AND IT SPREAD ROUND THE EARTH CAUSE THEY LOVED HIM.

INNOCENT MEN, NEWLY FREED, NEWLY BORN

PREACHED IN THE MARKET PLACE TO THE LOW AND FORLORN
AND WALKED CARRYING THE GOSPEL TILL THEIR TIRED FEET WERE WORN
BUT THEY WALKED AND THEY TALKED CAUSE THEY LOVED HIM.

THEN CAME THE DAY WHEN THE "RELIGIOUS" REBELLED

AND DECIDED THEY'D RATHER CONTINUE ON INTO HELL
AND THEY SILENCED THE CHRISTIANS AND TOLD THEM NOT TO TELL
BUT THEY COULD NOT BE SILENT CAUSE THEY LOVED HIM.

AND THE WOLVES ROSE UP AND CORNERED THE SHEEP

DISPATCHED THEM AT NOONDAY AND SLAUGHTERED THEM IN THEIR SLEEP
DEVISED TORTURES ANEW TO MAKE THEIR CHILDREN WEEP
BUT THEY DIED IN THEIR JOY CAUSE THEY LOVED HIM.

AND THROUGH THE AGES, TIME'S MARCHED ON

AND CLOSER NOW ARE WE TO HOME
THE SHEEP TO THE SHEEPFOLD, TO THE PLACE WE BELONG
WE MARCH ON AND WE FIGHT CAUSE WE LOVE HIM.

THE WORLD IS FULL OF DANGEROUS SNARES

PITS OF PERSECUTION AND COFFINS OF CARES
THE WOLVES FAR OUTNUMBER THE SHEEP HERE AND THERE
BUT THE SHEEP GIVE THEIR LIVES CAUSE WE LOVE HIM.

NOW HERE AT THE EDGE OF THE END OF ALL THINGS

WE CAN LOOK INTO HEAVEN AND BEHOLD, OUR HEARTS SING
THOUGH THE WOLVES BITE AND BRUISE US, WE WILL GIVE EVERYTHING
AND WE REGRET NOT A THING CAUSE WE LOVE HIM.

JESUS IS THERE


The devil can't get inside my heart
But Heaven knows how he has tried
Every time temptation finds me
Every time I run and hide.

I will get you soon, he tells me
Some unexpected, devilish way
But I don't listen, I just ignore him
And fall down on my knees to pray.

Since I've learned that right prevails
Since I know that I am loved
By the highest King of Glory
As He watches o'er me from above.

The devil can't get inside my heart
And he may try and sneer and pout
But how does he expect to find his way in?
When Jesus is there to push him out?

My very first poem
Before I knew who God, Jesus,
 or the devil even were

This prophetic poem
later literally saved my life

This picture of Jesus looks more
closely to the actual Jesus
than any other image I have found.
None of them can come close in 
any way but this is very similar.
I do believe that He appears to
different people in different forms
that they can relate to but this
is the Jesus that took me to Heaven
and sat me in the palm of His hand
and on His shoulder
and spent time with me as though
I was the only person in the Universe

All Glory and Honor to You, my Savior

for what You did on that cross!

Luke 19:10
For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost."

1 John 3:8 — The New King James Version (NKJV)

8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. 

For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the 

works of the devil.

John 10:10

“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.”

Powerful and Peaceful Video my friend Linda Rose just posted on YouTube. Listen all the way to the end. Happy Good Friday!

ONCE WAS ENOUGH

ONCE WAS ENOUGH

CONCEIVED I WAS

IN UNFELT PAIN

I STARTED DESCENDING

LIKE DROPS OF RAIN

AND DOWN TO EARTH

AS A SWORD, I FELL

WHILE HEAVEN CRIED

AND SO DID HELL

I LEFT THE GLORY

AND FOUND THE DIRT

I TASTED LOVE

WHICH BROUGHT THE HURT

AND MY LIFE STARTED

TO BRING THE END

AND I CRIED, BLOOD STAINED

FOR WAYWARD MEN

MY MOTHER HELD ME

MY FATHER TURNED

MY MIND, REPLAYING

THE THINGS I'D LEARNED

AND ALL THE WHILE

THE SHADOWS GREW

AROUND THE BLIND ONES

WHO SAW THE TRUE

THE ONES WHO HATED

THE ONES WHO LIED

AND TORE MY GARMENTS

THERE AS I CRIED

THE PAIN I BORE THEN

NO ONE COULD MEASURE

NO MAN  APPRAISES

THE THINGS I TREASURE

FOR IN THAT DARKNESS

I HUNG ALONE

AND PRAYED FOR STRENGTH

AND WEPT FOR HOME

EARTH SPLIT ASUNDER

THE HEAVENS RANG

BLIND EYES WERE OPENED

AND CHILDREN SANG

BUT IN THAT MOMENT

OF UNKNOWN DEATH

MY LUNGS EXPELLED

THAT MORTAL BREATH

AND I AWAKENED

IN CAVERNS DEEP

WHERE MEN RAN SCREAMING

AND DID NOT SLEEP

THEY KNEW MY NAME THERE

THEY KNEW MY FACE

THOUGH THEY'D NEVER SEEN ME

OR KNOWN MY GRACE

AND I BEHELD THEM

AND HUNG MY HEAD

WITH SORROW BURDENED

FOR THE TRULY DEAD

ACROSS THE CHASM

I SAW THE OTHERS

MY LOVED ONES, WAITING

MY FRIENDS, MY BROTHERS

THEY SAW ME COMING

THEIR HANDS, THEY RAISED

THEY DANCED IN JOY

MY NAME, THEY PRAISED

I TOOK THEM WITH ME

UP TO THE SKY

NO MORE TO SUFFER

NO MORE TO DIE

ASCENDING NOW

FROM THAT DESCENT

I FOUND THOSE TO WHICH

I HAD BEEN SENT

AND LIKE THE LIGHTNING

AND LIKE THE RAIN

THE GLORY FELL

AND HEALED THE PAIN

TO AN ANCIENT PLACE

AND ALL IT'S PLEASURES

I CARRIED ALL 

MY EARTHLY TREASURES

AND MANY HUNGRY

FOR THE LOVE I GIVE

WILL BE TRANSPORTED

TO THE PLACE I LIVE

VESSELS OF LIGHT

WHO'VE KEPT THE VOW

WILL BE TRANSFIGURED

THOUGH CLAY FORMED NOW

AND COUNTLESS CHILDREN

LIKE GRAINS OF SAND

WILL LIVE FOREVER

WITHIN MY HANDS

WOULD I DO IT OVER?

THE DEATH FOR SIN?

A MILLION TIMES

I'D DIE FOR MEN

BUT THERE'S NO NEED

TO AGAIN, REBUFF

HELL'S POWER IS BROKEN

ONCE WAS ENOUGH.

12:37 A.M.

during a storm

WITHOUT HIM
 sung by Elvis Presley, my cousin
a beautiful song that was written
 by my other cousin, Mylon LeFevre
when he was 17 yrs old..................

Hands of Fire

 

Hands of Fire 

I took the fire in my hands

Blew upon the blaze,

Clasped it to my hungry heart

And upwards I did gaze.

My mind was full of worry

My soul was full of woe,

My body was a tired thing

That did not want to go.

But down within, my spirit man

Stood up and said goodbye,

Waved farewell to the slaves of hell

And every scheme and lie.

They didn’t want to let go

They screamed their angry screams,

They threatened to make nightmares

Out of all my dreams.

And though their threats were frightening

And my flesh fought hard to flee,

I didn’t let them see my fear

Or weakness within me.

I turned not to the right or left

I kept my face like flint,

I felt the fire consume me

Though I was not burned or bent.

The devils howled in terror

The demons crawled away,

But the fire they feared, that holy fire

Refined me there that day.

My flesh began to crumble

My soul sought to submit,

My spirit grew to ten feet tall

And my mind was awed by it.

No more a faithless, worthless worm

No more a dirty rag,

My inner man, the eternal me

Stepped out of that worn bag.

And as I stood and watched it die

My mouth began to praise,

My eyes began to see the plan

Designed in ancient days.

And all my soul was quieted

And all my heart was healed,

And all the false things in my life

Fell off and became real.

I burned and burned as I drank deep

Of the new wine in the cup,

I burned when I ate of the bread

And I did not burn up.

I walked the world in flames of fire

That shot out of my eyes,

My heart, a wounded thing made whole

That heard the whole world’s cries.

And even now, as I write this

I must, of God, inquire,

How can I hold this paper here

When my hands are on fire?

I long to lay them on the heads

Of lost and dying men,

To show them hope in hopelessness

And make them live again.

I want to im-part what I’ve learned

To unbelieving fools,

Share with them the joys of life

Equip them with new tools.

I need to take them to the well

And bid them to drink deep,

Break their chains of dark despair

And give them keys to keep.

I desire to give this holy fire

That burns now higher still,

To man and woman, boy and girl

And whosoever will.

I’d give my life for others

If others my life could save,

I’d pull them out with my own hands

From the coldness of the grave.

This fire that’s shut up in my bones

Bids me to preach and teach,

This fire in my heart and hands

Bids me to seek and reach.

I yearn to touch the untouchables

And make them clean and new,

Watch the dross burn out of the gold

May I share this fire with you?
