The Answer....A Rap

   9/28/14                                  

If no one is coming down to set us straight

Then man alone must stop the hate

Just more of man’s laws to get fair and just

Yet our coins say “In God We Trust”

Hopeless man tries from his birth

To make Heaven right here on Earth

Try to make everything fair & square

Impossible for him, he doesn’t stand a prayer

Now if life here is all there is

Then at the end, there’ll be no pop quiz

Don’t stress, just pleasures be our goal

Let’s chop up the babies for birth control

But how can we all live as brothers?

Well righteousness and peace kiss each other          Psalm 85:10

Not everyone will serve the Lord

Jesus said "Sell your coat & buy a sword"                 Luke 22:36

War raged within me till the Prince of Peace             Isa. 9:6

Held my soul and gave me release

Victory every time, I’ve found the key

I just let God do the fighting for me

Now Shadrack, Mesach and Abednego

Dragged to Babylon, a long time ago

Had cool names and let me tell you mo

Fire couldn’t burn these three home bro                    Dan. 3

You may be believe you can up from the slime

And cleaned yourself up over time

Some like me are no accident

Created in His image, I was a blessed event

Brothers, sisters be it known

This big blue marble is not our home

Cause His eye is on the sparrow

Even on us when we’re down & low                         Matt. 10:29

Peace and justice can be real thin

When you’re looking for the answer blowing in the wind

Love flows out like hot fudge sauce

For those who are not ashamed of the cross

Today’s the day, let us sing & shout

Our troops are in and Satan is out

Shouts of joy for the Perfect Lamb                            John 1:29

What a great day to be an American

No need to be angry & full of despair

And go out cursing like Madeline O’Hare

Real peace and joy will overflow your cup

Just give it all to Jesus & keep looking up                Psalm 118:9
