On the streets of the infidels, where the churches toll unholy bells He pauses to survey the ungodly mire His breath comes fast and short, as he grips the pull cord taught to visit upon them god's own holy fire And mothers smile, and children play, unaware on this deadly day that this man is buying Heaven with their lives   So he stares into their eyes, with a hatred born of fire Unleashing hell in exchange for ****** paradise   But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels, they all say the same That we should love our neighbour and forgive our enemies So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name     Now there's a mighty Superchurch down in Alabama, and the pastor there he'll cleanse you from your sin He'll cure your cancer and make you well, grant you success, save you from Hell, if you drop your divine dollars in the tin But if you ain't playin ball with Mr Holy, and his fiery sermon fails to make you well Then instead of blessed health and wealthy endeavours, he'll leave you to barbecue in good old hell But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels, they all say the same That what we received so freely, we should share without a profit So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name     There are men who thinks it's divine to violate children, and to use the western ****** for their own desires And they claim that they're the instrument of Heaven, and that *** can be used to cleanse, just like fire Yet the very books they use for validation, speak of kindness, love and God's own mercy mild And they denounce the hypocrites who cry “defilement”, when they themselves, when abusing are so defiled But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels, they all say the same That there is not a man among us fit to pass a judgement So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name       As the flags of nations unfurl for the warzone, and the cries of freedom echo through the spree Both combatants boast of weapons of hell's fury, that will burn a city from all memory And both sides will claim the right, that they are the just ones in this fight While the children trust in them to set them free   But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels all say the same That if we use a sword then God himself will cut us down So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name     So don't you soak His name in blood, and don't you sell Him to the poor Stop your wars and your vendettas, cause He's not with you any more   And He don't recognize your flags, cause they divide His unity He uses persuasion, not invasion, and He gives his love for free Yes the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels all say the same They clearly cry the same Justify it any way you like Call it anything you like But don't do it in God's name! "The hour is coming when everyone who kills you will think he has offered a sacred service to God. But they will do these things because they have not come to know either the Father or me." - John 16.2

Not In His Name
On the streets of the infidels, where the churches toll unholy bells He pauses to survey the ungodly mire His breath comes fast and short, as he grips the pull cord taught to visit upon them god's own holy fire And mothers smile, and children play, unaware on this deadly day that this man is buying Heaven with their lives   So he stares into their eyes, with a hatred born of fire Unleashing hell in exchange for ****** paradise   But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels, they all say the same That we should love our neighbour and forgive our enemies So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name     Now there's a mighty Superchurch down in Alabama, and the pastor there he'll cleanse you from your sin He'll cure your cancer and make you well, grant you success, save you from Hell, if you drop your divine dollars in the tin But if you ain't playin ball with Mr Holy, and his fiery sermon fails to make you well Then instead of blessed health and wealthy endeavours, he'll leave you to barbecue in good old hell But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels, they all say the same That what we received so freely, we should share without a profit So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name     There are men who thinks it's divine to violate children, and to use the western ****** for their own desires And they claim that they're the instrument of Heaven, and that *** can be used to cleanse, just like fire Yet the very books they use for validation, speak of kindness, love and God's own mercy mild And they denounce the hypocrites who cry “defilement”, when they themselves, when abusing are so defiled But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels, they all say the same That there is not a man among us fit to pass a judgement So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name       As the flags of nations unfurl for the warzone, and the cries of freedom echo through the spree Both combatants boast of weapons of hell's fury, that will burn a city from all memory And both sides will claim the right, that they are the just ones in this fight While the children trust in them to set them free   But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels all say the same That if we use a sword then God himself will cut us down So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name     So don't you soak His name in blood, and don't you sell Him to the poor Stop your wars and your vendettas, cause He's not with you any more   And He don't recognize your flags, cause they divide His unity He uses persuasion, not invasion, and He gives his love for free Yes the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels all say the same They clearly cry the same Justify it any way you like Call it anything you like But don't do it in God's name!

*What does your heart know? how does your heart feel? why do you deny your heart? the call, calling, the feeling that calls you to purpose... ...Jihad?*

...THE STRUGGLE...
In a desert midnight no darker than dawn With cloudless heavens evident and stretching To the edges of Bedouins’ minds and ours Where owls govern with Your permission You plunged a mighty fist deep Into the heart and gripped a molten rag And pulled it into a peak of crags In which the **** You wanted grew With a rush of wind you shaped that Tear into a world-sized hollow to shelter A man and a starfilled future for any who Might accept what tugged at him that night You once said Be! and time commenced But earlier you had chosen from first Until final a stream of Rusul and You placed In that cleft the last Rasul alone but never And in the radiance of a challenging word Your spirit whose wings dripped pearls Asked the silent one who sailed in prayer To revolve the world on a different axis Running feet across the earth carried him To the comfort of arms that felt a beating Chest bursting with ten million truths and her Assurances trounced the whisperer’s last ditch Words of mercy flow around us through a gentle Heart in a stone cavity in the shade of a night Without shadows beneath a cloudless cover Which owls rule ... for a shrinking time

The Cleft
You never felt snow tighten your skin with a sting You never searched for the shore from the crest of a wave You never grinned at the gait of a penguin You never saw a whale’s grey fluke sink after rising You never breathed in coffee’s warm rich aroma You never heard the clearing of a smoker’s throat You never saw headlights peer through dawn fog You never smiled at an American accent You never waited in a queue at the bank You never cringed at the words of a driving instructor You never sat and failed a biology test You never kicked a football across the road You never changed batteries in a tv remote You never emptied the lawn-mower catcher You never rushed to catch a bus and missed it Yet exulted He chose you Praise and glory to Him Picked you from this world And for it The last in the line The path straight to follow To Him high above all Alhamdulillah!
