  D          C                    D
YHWH is my shepherd; I shall not want.
                    C             G   A                     G                 D
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
                C                   G      D                                      C
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Em             D                C            G         Em     C              D         C        D    Em 
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; 
  D               C                 D
thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
                  C           D                  C  G        D  
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: 
                  C                 D           C D
thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
        C              D               C                     D                             C        G        A
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of YHWH for ever.

Messiah's Song

Your heart said be my bride

And my heart said yes I do

You called me to your side

And that's where I fell in love with You

Rivers of Life and Purity

Sprinkled with Mercy and Love

Sealed with the ring of Your Ruwach

'Till the day You take me Home above

The voice of the turtle dove is heard throughout the land

The fig tree bring forth their green bud

Your heart sings softly to me come away my Love

And my heart sings Your the One

How can I withold from You my son

Whom You knew before time was new

You called him to Your side

And that's where he fell in love with You

You'll soon appear in the eastern sky

The clouds be rolled back as a scroll

You'll take me Home with You forever more

And there I will finally be whole

Ev'ry tribe and nation will bow before Your throne

Ev'ry tounge confess that You are Lord

For Your coronation present You'll receive Your Bride

Pure and spotless as You are

Though I sit here Love sick with Grief

I know we've got things to do

I've got invitations to write

For the day the Chrurch becomes Your Wife

You will prepare a place for us on High

Filled with all things Perfect and New

There Gold is something we just walk upon

And Love is something we just DO!

There we will sit and laugh beside the crystal sea

And drink from the Water of Life

All things that were intended before time began

Shall be forever with out end

This song has been written for a long time now (about three months).  Immediately after writing a song of repentance from idolotry the song itself became an idol.  I am at the present unable to publish the recording of it because my laptop harddrive burned up.

Golden Let Down

When our idols let us down

When they burn a hole in the sky

Will we seek You then?

Will we even wonder why?

Or will we stoop and bow

Before the golden god that we've made

And call the third world names

This song has been written for even longer.  I wrote it almost a year ago when I was working as a moving man moving an elderly couple into a retirement community. Sorry can't upload the recording yet because my harddrive is fried.

We Look for the Day

We look for the day

When money can't be found

And we gladly serve each other with Your Love

When diamonds hold no value

But to magnify the beauty of Your Face

Of Your Love and Grace

I have traditionally spent New Year's Eve praising and worshipping the Qedosh Yisra'el but this year I was moved to lament and cry for our great nation.  America what are we doing?

In America?

I'm the voice of one crying in the wilderness

Who will hear our cries oh Lord?

When will we see the freedoms promised in America

For the countless babies burned up in their mother's womb?

Who'd have thought a place of warmth and love could be a tomb?

You Deserve Your Name Declared

You deserve Your Name declared in all the earth

You deserve Your Name declared in Love

You deserve Your Name declared by every tribe and tongue

And You deserve Your Name declared in us

Though the heavens and the earth will all pass away

Eye of the Needle

D                        C     G
Will you give up everything?
F               C
All of your riches?
D               G
All of your pride?
                           F
For the chance to be
       C           D    G
His pure spotless Bride
                           F   C
And share in His sorrows
                     G
Mingled with grief
        F                      D
In exchange for His Goodness
G                C
And eternal Peace!

Happy Rosh Hashana

Blow the Shofar with me, oh House of Israel!  Return now to the covenant our Eloheem, the Qedosh Yishra'el!  Hear now the sound of the coronation of our King who returns to us soon!  Hear now the wailing of the Jewish heart who longs for Him, who longs for her Bride Groom!  Hear now the wake-up call to repentance!  Return with me to the covenant and to the House of our Eloheem, the Eloheem of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob!  Hear now the faith of our Father Abraham who calls to us from beyond the years!

Far too many would like to rewrite Romans 12:2 so that it misreads, "Be not conformed to the things of this world but be you conformed to the things of my church"  Do a word study on this!  Put a lot of thought in to what a transformation process really is.  It's not a check list.  It's a relationship.  And our God is a quarky kind of God.  He'll give all the answers that you've been looking for to some geek on the Internet or some mentally retarded person at the institution or some prisoner public enemy number one just because he wants to see if you bother to go to the least of these.  America quit playing it safe.  Get out of the pew and find out how much Jesus Loves you.  I've really got to make that call to the prison ministry.

Get Flushed

Take away the drugs and pscychology

Throw away the paper and turn off the TV

Open up your Bible and learn how to read

And You just might see Jesus (2x)

Refrain:

Get flushed for the King of Kings

Get flushed see the Joy that He brings

A lament for the death of science, reason, and culture due to the advent of the theory of evolution and the postmodern era.

The Devolution of Man

Entropy will mock you
You who scorn the Truth
And never pull the curtain back
And say that it's no use


For by the Anthropic Principal
The Universe demands
That all of God's Creation
Remains Safely in His Hands


Refrain:
Not with you who take the mark and bite the fruit
Of the Devolution of Man


You used to think God's thoughts after Him
And bow and worship at the awe of His majestic plan
Now you think thoughts for Him
And watch the monkey scratch his can

Monkey see; monkey do
Throw your hands up there's no use
Nothing left to sing about
No one left to Love
(refrain)


What happened to Handel
Or Mozart or Rafael?
Why desecrate the Cross
And turn up the radio?


I'm sorry primate cousins take my head
But I won't go
(refrain)

Psalm 137

This is the most emotional melody that I have ever written.  It is very mysterious and touches upon the entire gamete of emotion.  Don't take it as a song of vengence.  It is not.  Take it as a prophecy.  The little ones to be dashed against the rocks are the followers of the Daughter of Babylon and the Rock is either Messiah or the Temple Mount.  Notice that it is daughter (singular) and not daughters (plural).  This can only point to Mystery Whore Babylon.  Who is the Mystery Whore?  That is the mystery.  She is not the Catholic Church or Islam or America or anyone else like that.  That is too simple and none of those organizations are both evil enough and conniving enough.  No the Whore is the tares that are sewn among the wheat.  She is in every organization and every where on earth.  She rears her head when ever people follow the money or whenever they stop trying to follow God and start trying to be Him.

This is a song of mourning and loss yes.  Maybe it is about the original Babylonian captivity or those killed by Nero or six million Jews being burned alive or 65 million American unborn citizens being burned alive in the wombs of their own mothers.  Maybe it is a personal loss because of sin in the world or just plain life.

Yet it doesn't end there.  The psalm has  a turn which I represent musically by a key change.  This turn comes when we remember YHWH.  When we remember Zion.  When we remember the seed and decide to Love when we ought to hate and care when we ought to give up. 

C         D          C    Em
By the rivers of Babylon
                      D
There we sat down
             C
Yea we wept
                         D        C  Em
When we remembered Zion
                     D
We hung our harps
     C        G   Em
Upon the willows

In the midst of it

G                                D
For those who carried us away
C     Em
Captive
C                    G
Asked of us a Song

You are Love

D     A   G                       A
You are Love beyond all reason
        D                   G
And Hope beyond degree
                             A
And maybe just to prove it
                 G                         D
You came down and died for me

Fulfillment of Prophecy

I prophesied at the beginning of this year that there would be an east wind.  There has been an unprecedented number of tornadoes this year that have done great damage.  I prophesied that the tides would rise.  Most of the Midwest has been under water for a week or so.  I prophesied that a love of wine and oil (aka pleasure and materialism) would result in a rising cost of bread and water.  I explained that this was a physical manifestation of a spiritual lack of spiritual bread and spiritual water.  Now all of these things are happening.  There is one more thing that will happen.  This judgment will result in National revival of more than 50 thousand people.  This is already scheduled to occur as I heard on Trinity Broadcast Network last evening (Friday June 20 2008).

On Judgment

Why do we fear judgment so?  A judgment can be good and righteous if it is made by a good and righteous judge.  A judgment can be the end of the world or the beginning of a new life.  With one word and the pound of a gavel an entire course of life can change for the better or the worse.

Outstretched Still

America
I warned you not to go this way
America
My little lamb has gone astray
America
I wait for you
With Outstretched Arms

Will Your List of idols hear your cries
Or will they cry out to you for more oil
And all the while my jealous Blood begins to boil
With Love for you
With Love for you

America
I warned you not to go this way
America
My little lamb has gone astray
America
I wait for you
With Outstretched Arms

Chapter 2 : Not Hide and Seek but Pray and Seek

In the garden Adam and Eve hid themselves from their Creator, because of their sin, but thanks be to YHWH, because of the atoning sacrifice of His Son, Yeshuah the Messiah, we are able to come boldly before His throne of Grace.  I tend to think of my relationship with Messiah in terms of a marriage and this allegory has a very strong scriptural basis ().  With that being said, it is common sense that a marriage without communication is a rocky one.  The Messiah ought to be consulted on any matter that would be appropriate to consult a best friend or a spouse.  This is the essence of prayer.  It is a continual dialog between the betrothed, believer, and Messiah, the Bridegroom.  Prayer is not speaking to the air.  It is a dialouge.  When you pray expect answers.  More often than not the one who ought to be silent is the human half of this arrangement but there are times when Messiah will say nothing other than, "Be still."
