Son of Man



The first time I kissed your lips
Shivers ran down my spine like rows of whips,
The aroma that came from your breath
No doubt was way out of this Earth;

Kick-started in me was a journey of Sanctification
On my knees I was, and you brought me Salvation,
The Baptist, even in the womb, your presence felt
By the bank of the Jordan your weaknesses melt;

In Heaven, on Earth, all powers you wield
To demon outcast and surround us with a shield,
On those who believe, your power bestow
Our faces now lit up with colossal glow;

With you every night, a date I keep
My heart, for you longs even when deep asleep,
With the rising sun, my eyes and heart aglow
Filled with strength, which from you comes alone;

Many a man, your word has heard
Yet the path of destruction tread because their hearts are smeared,
Our savour as salt of the earth have we lost
On whose shoulder would we rest to bear this colossal cost?

Strongholds


I am a disciplinarian
I take no nonsense
But Christ taught us discipline
And takes no nonsense;

I am a disciplinarian
I hate disobedience
But Christ taught us discipline
And hates disobedience;

I am a disciplinarian
I don't listen to explanations
But Christ taught us discipline
And gives room for corrections;

I made you what you are
And you must lick my feet
But Christ made us all
And yet washed our feet;

I made you what you are
And you must dance to my tune
But Christ made us all
And left us without rune;

I made you what you are
You must tremble when I call
But Christ made us all
Only before him we must tremble and fall;

O' ye man made from dust
Take stock of your limited
And miserable life of lust
See then, where actually thou seated;

From darkness
You were bought
Why remain dark in righteousness
Knowing, into light you were brought?;

Thy lips find it easy
As thy lying tongue it houses
Thy maker thou has left pissed
Before Him, you are one of the louses;

Shed now, the stroghold on you
It's slowly decaying your soul from within
Remember when the devil dined with you
How miserable your life grew from deep within
