Light To The Nations
Therefore, this is what the Sovereign LORD says: “Look! I am placing a foundation stone in Jerusalem, a firm and tested stone. It is a precious cornerstone that is safe to build on. Whoever believes need never be shaken.” Isaiah 28:16 Israel’s shepherd and Israel’s stone,promised Messiah, revealed and foretold,Zion’s foundation, His glory is shown,Israel’s shepherd…

The Lion and The Lamb

I once questioned each step along the wayWhile longing to uncover paths of truth;Thus pondering the meaning of my life,And venturing through ev’ry open door.For stolen water’s sweet with secret bread,As if fondling the darkness for true light. Night as heavy as a feather is light,So desolate I felt destruction’s way.When nimbly kneading at Nietzche’s…
