Telsscope (Needs Autobiography and Devotional)



TELESCOPE
My friend he has found a telescope
For taking his pictures of home
Round this town nobody looks up from the ground
Somehow he’s going to turn her life around
Holding on to a promise that begins and ends before and after him
Taking notes from the lessons they didn’t learn
Living larger than the lives that you’ve been shown
So much wiser than the years that you’ve watched turn
-My friend she has found a comrade
Playing guitar in her music box
Coming in above the static they dance to
Listening for a voice that calls from home
And a dream that’s just around the block
CHORUS:
Living larger than the lives that you’ve been shown
So much wiser than the years you’ve watched turn
Running further than these chains will let you move
Earned a token for a cloud that leaves tonite
And a telescope to see your life unfold
-They gave them a broken pen and tattered paper
Together they turned it into moon and stars
Every clock that’s on these walls
Takes a hundred years to turn
Writing about more sailboats
And visions most can’t see
All sleeping drunken on the shores
While the ships are coming in
And setting out again
Both are hanging by the silver lining
Of a cloud that leaves tonite
CHORUS:
Living larger than the lives that you’ve been shown
So much wiser that the years you’ve watch burn
Running further than these chains will let you move
Earned a token for a cloud that leaves tonite
And a telescope to see your life unfold
Prayer for Those with Broken Telescopes


Father of Visions and Visionaries

We come to you asking for the return of our Visions
Because all of our Telescopes were broken in the Years
We come to you seeking the Origin of our Dreams
Because they have left us for somewhere we have yet to have Gone
We come to you asking for Open Windows
Because ours have been dewed over with these Tears
We come to you for the delivery again of all you have gave Us
We had forgotten to hold them close and so they Disappeared.

“Where there is no divine vision people cast off restraint,
but blessed is the one who keeps Torah.” Proverbs 29:18 TLV

Rocks Would Scream

Rocks Would Scream-Silence is Killing Me   Silence Is, Silence Is, Killing Me My Silence Is My Silence Is Killing You and Me These Rocks could scream it But it shouldnt have to be that way Chorus: Take this heart But not just for today Take my words And have Your Say Take these hands And rearrange   All my labor Into fruit that saves Into fruit that saves These rocks could scream But it shouldnt have to be that way -Silence Is Silence Is Silence is Not the Way I am I have been Ready for a change Chorus: Take this heart But not just for today Take my words And have Your Say Take these hands And rearrange   All my labor Into fruit that saves Into fruit that saves These rocks could scream But it shouldnt have to be that way -The children cry And it shouldnt have to be that way Were missing Love Were kissing pain And Lord it stabs your heart Shouldnt it do mine the same? Silence is, Silence is,   My Silence is killing You and me Its just the same People dying inside and out   Every sin

Confessions of a Tainted Saint

CONFESSIONS OF A TAINTED SAINT Brother and Sisters Let us bow a knee to pray Today we ask forgiveness For all the sins that we forgot to say We are the Silent Stones We are the Tainted Saints By now Sodom could have put us all to Shame By now Gomorrah could have gone in through the pearly Gates Chorus: Lord we ask for all the mercy We have forgotten to hand out Lord we ask for understanding For all the mornings we used this pulpit just to shout We are the Silent Stones We are the Tainted Saints Lord we ask for all the mercy We have forgotten to hand out We have forgotten to hand out -These oaken pews in the arena Turn our thumbs to the gladiators down These dusty Bibles are on the bookshelf Turn the t.v. preacher volume up when we hear the cries for help -Have I become a better man than I once was? Or have I just become a better showman on this stage? Have I become a bearer of better fruit than yesteryear? Or have I just pushed the bitter roots down into the ground? Chorus: Lor

The Showman

The Showman  Does carrying that Crown never get too heavy Take up all your days until you’re too old to carry on? Does burying all that widow’s gold Take up too much room inside your soul until its’ gone? Are there any Inner Rooms left Inside? Are there any Sacred Hours you can Find? Where your sons can take to Flight? Where your daughters can Delight? Where your wife can hide from the Storm Outside? Where you haven’t filled them up with Showman’s Pride? Chorus: On Showman, When the Lights Don’t Glow Do you got nothing left but the memory a Show? When the Curtain Falls Do you got no glory left at All? When the Airtime Fails Do those reruns become your private Hell? Do those reruns become your private Hell? Does carrying that all that shame ever get to heavy Take up all your days until you’re too old to carry on? Does eating up all the praise and applause Take up too much room inside your soul until its’ gone? -Are there any Treasured Memories left Inside Are there any Buried Seaso
