Judges 19-21

What evil dwells in this heart.

In God’s kingdom thrown out.

Destroy corruption is the plan.

Wickedness in this sinful man.

Root out this terrible disgrace.

Not right to be in this place.

Kill and totally destroy.

Win the battle with a decoy.

Just a remnant left.

Must build again so not bereft.

To try again with this man.

So needed to fulfill God’s plan.

Mark 11:27_23

The religious question who Jesus is?

When afraid to answer they will miss.

What he would say.

What he did tell us on this day.

Psalm 43

I come before his majesty.

Before his holiness bow the knee.

Seen as my only desire.

Set my heart a blazing fire.

As I know and glorify him.

He alone my righteousness in.

Judges 17-19

Everyone did what he thought was right,

in his own sight.

Followed inclination of heart,

when needed a new start.

When following the wrong master

This led to disaster.

Knew their God of power.

Yet trusted their own high tower.

Crumbled and failed again.

Causing more trouble and pain.

Again, rescued his special people.

Feeling so hopeless and feeble.

O how they needed a King

They could do anything.

Mark 11:22-25

A tree that should bear fruit.

Illustrate church that is mute.

Believers with good news.

Not able to fill the pews.

Faith that can move a mountain.

The power we can count on.

Believe and it will happen for you.

God’s strength we must tap into.

Psalm 47

Come clap your hands everyone

At the coming of God’s Son.

Know now we can defeat.

Put enemies at our feet.

By God’s amazing powers,

Promises now are ours.

Allowed us to win.

All praise to Him.

Listen: Deaut:15-17

The Lord has come to bless.

Especially when we say, yes!

To all that he does say.

To follow in his way.

The blessings he gives to you.

Must give Lord his due.

Will at your very core.

Have concern for the poor.

You have been set apart,

To reveal the Father’s heart.

Always to be sure,

To avoid the impure.

Remember always celebrate

He who controlled your fate.

Listen Mk:7:1-13

Be careful to not despise.

Tradition important in your eyes.

To distort what you know is true.

Just so it does suit you.

Not what the Lord does say.

Just suits your selfish way.

Listen: Ps. 37

Once young now I am old.

Or so I’m always told.

Now come to really know.

He protects from every woe

That I may generously give.

In this blessed life, I live.
