Daniel 1-2

Though captive in a strange land.

I’m in the God of heavens hand.

Who reveals in a way discrete.

How the world’s kings he will delete

It is just I who have been shown.

That the Lords ways might be known.

To bring honour only to him.

Who all knowledge is in.

Amazing it is to see.

Me treated honourably.

Because l proclaimed Gods word.

And his eternal purpose was heard.

Lk. 3:11-20

To to tell and show other men.

To be a good citizen before them.

For God to show the way.

Come and enlighten their day.

For though l am nothing.

I go before heavens King.

Even as l proclaim.

Judgment in his name.

Yet leaders refuse to listen.

And I seem stuck in prison.

Ps. 81.

I have been ordained to praise.

Is what the Lord says.

Though it might cause shocks.

It will be the word that unlocks.

That gives such total freedom

To all those who choose to come.

.And cry out to the Lord.

Then listen and live in accord

With what the Lord says.

For him to bless their ways.

Prov. 2:11-15

Wise words make you brave.

Delusions only deprave.
