JESUS' WORDS, AND OTHERS'

Jesus' Words, and Others'

ANGEL JOY

Angel Joy

The angels find a certain joy...

in blessing ev'ry little girl and boy.

Our children need a helping hand,

ta hear of Jesus’ great command

to love the Lord, with all your might,

to ask and seek, to find the Light...

within your self and neighbors, too,

by loving each one,

through and through!

Through Love an' Livin' Truth we'll Overcome, and Beauty's Sure ta Help our Project, Too! Since Corp'rit Media Keep their Watchers Dumb, let's Start ta Check our FACTS, and Git a CLUE!

FOR A COMPROMISED CHRISTIAN FRIEND

For a Compromised Christian Friend

Is “Love Your Enemies” just Stupid, Man? Is Doing Good ta Them and Prayin' Dumb? Are We ta Kill as Many As we Can? Is That the Way ta Help God's Kingdom Come?

Was Jesus Just aNother Crazy Nut? Do All the Truths he Spoke no Longer Hold? Ain't Greed and Fears and SelfishNess a Rut? Are We supPosed ta Buy the Lies we're Told?

Let's Think uPon these Things, my Faithful Friend, and Let's not Shuck ourSelves at All taDay! Our Violent Means could Cause our Violent End, and Doubting Folks all Need ta Start ta Pray! I have spoken.
