Paper Dreamers
~~
All you folks in paper hats
You think paper's where it's at.
Paper suits and paper ties...
... don't you know that paper LIES?
Paper silver, paper gold,
Paper's bought, and paper's sold.
Does paper have ANY worth?
It's just a tree cut from the earth!
Your god is almighty Paper...
... The Presidents are your deal makers.
Paper lions, paper hearts,
In the end they're TORN APART...
Paper tigers, paper souls,
Punch them and they're
FULL OF HOLES...
Paper masks, paper streamers,
All you are are
PAPER DREAMERS.
Whatever happened to your returns?
Don't you know that paper BURNS?
Some CEOs? Thieves and LIARS!
Out there starting FOREST FIRES!
Where's the nest egg of older folk?
Their investment's up in SMOKE!
Greed is what we're talking here,
And all it is is paper FEAR...
"Will I keep up? Is mine the best...?"
They're just KIDS in paper vests!
"If you don't leave my paper alone...
... I'll just take my paper HOME!!!"
Paper boats and paper toys
For paper girls and paper boys...
Paper rats and paper chase,
'Fraid you'll lose the paper race?
Paper masks and paper schemers,
All you are are
PAPER DREAMERS.
Deep inside your spirit SCREAMS!
There's no substance to your dreams!
All you are is dust and spit?
H2O and dirt... that's it?
Don't you feel that hole inside?
Put away your paper pride!
What will happen when you die,
When you find it's all a LIE...
You KNOW I'm telling you the TRUTH.
You've wasted your life,
You've lost your youth!
If you've a question, why not ask it?
Just some more paper for your basket?
Magazines, newspapers, what's in print?
More paper for the treasury's mint?
C'mon people! Let's get real!
This is NOT "Let's Make a Deal"!!!
Door #1 or 2 or 3...
Is that how you deal with
ETERNITY???!!!
Better be sure you're on the dime,
'Cuz eternity's a long... L O N G.... TIME.
Paper wings or paper veils?
Paper heads or paper tails...
... keep life in a paper cup
Guess what?
Your time is
UP.

The tears of a rose
Will soak and stain
They're from her heart
They're stored up rain
They come from heaven
To flow down thorns
They sing in screams
From her lips torn
They can be acid
To burn the bloom
They can be crystal
Reflecting moons
The rose will open
In dead of night
The tears from petals
Refract the light
They cascade down
Drop from the leaves
For her soul
She sits and grieves
For her soul
The drops fall down
They feed her roots
Under the ground
They bring her back
The legend goes
There's healing in
Tears of a rose

the tiny bubbles on the

they dart under

they go round

To be a student approved by God
Don't be a pendant who men applaud!
Be a seeker who searches His Face
You'll recieve amazing grace!
When you study, go deep and find
The precious nuggets in the mìnè!
Look up words that you don't know
Words you "understand",but no,
There are words which you begin
To THINK you know, but don't fit in!
It isn't about sounding grand
It's more about reading to understand!
When an idea bbrings a frown
Of conviction WRITE IT DOWN!
The journal of a worthy student
Shows that they are wise and prudent
The nugget you write down today
No devil can ever steal away!
Of contradictions the Bible's free
The Word interprets itself, you see!
Here's a way...remember this
Relationship with the Lord is bliss!
Surender first
That God is Glorified
Uunderstand and
Dig for gold
You will find a wealth untold!!

An egg fell from the eagle's nest
it was sad I must attest!
God looked down as the egg fell far
it dropped, the rock's darkness marred.
It must have fallen 50 feet!
An animal then came to eat.
It was large but the eagle was bigger! Its talons closed just like a trigger!
Came down hard, a dark dark gray,
blotting out the light of day!
The beast was quickly eaten up
the eagle brought it there to sup...
Cycle's then are set to ground
So God's Nature came around!

The Christian way is hard they say
It seems we have no freedom
Looking there the walk has cares
Which attend serving The Kingdom
The path is tough the trail is rough
Folks don't want to hear
They say, "Your walk don't match your talk!"
As they sit drunk on beer.
We have to face great lack of grace
Even with our own
They will shun and when they're done
Their hearts are cold as stone.
The toughest part of a Christian's walk
Is not the strictness of it
No smoking, drinking, other stuff
Which most will do and love it!
The hardest thing that our faith brings
Is not the denigration
The family's jokes, the scowling folks
Who bring humiliation
The most that Christians have to face
Is not the hours of prayer⏳️
Though it's hard suffering the shards
The fragments of despair
God, He makes the rocky road
As simple as can be
We've all heard the living Word
If we have eyes to see 👀
But the toughest thing we have to face
Is our heart for the lost
The dead who speak in emptiness seek
Their "wealth" at such a cost!
We really care, we are aware
That they're an empty shell
Their highway is broad, bereft of God
And leads them straight to hell!
I don't want them to perish!
That fate shoud not be theirs!
We want to speak so theÿ will seek
Jesus will take their cares!
I hope the Father uses me
To be a one appointed
To be the voice which leads their choice
So loud it is anointed!
Use me Lord! I am a sword
Honed for many years!
The hour is late! Their help can't wait!
They're hurting, full of fear!
Please take all the secret sins
Which I hold in my heart
Then freedom's mine! The love divine ✨️ 💖
I can make a start
The power that binds the heart and mind
Is what made prophets awed
For they could see what soon can be
The healing Spirit of God.

Sing to me, oh my soul...
Night's tucked me in
Its soft wool blanket
The stars have kissed
My tears away
I lie here ready
And awaiting
For the end of
This life's day...
Sing to me, oh my Savior!
Sing to me, oh my soul!
I am through with
All my hardships
My life's tale
Has been told.
I am waiting
For a rising
My final rest
To so acquire
I let this flute of
Bones go silent
I see Chariots of Fire.
I have moved
10,000 mountains
In this life I've
Walked the earth
And if you're counting
The equator
I have run
Its very girth.
I have seen
10,000,000 starships
Taking off
Behind my eyes
I have heard
The screaming
Children
I have witnessed
Hell disguised...
[chorus]
If you don't think
There is a devil
Look into the
Face of fear
Look into a
Mother's eyes
When her children
Go to war
Look into the
Maw of "justice"
Jingoistic
Jaundiced JOKE
See the planes
Of Hiroshima
Cast The Bomb and
SMELL THE SMOKE
[chorus]
BRIDGE:
I lie here with
My blood a'soaking
Into barren,
Rocky ground
Soon the Rose will
Be a'growing
The sweetest e'r
To be found...
