WE DON'T NEED TO BE HELPLESS


Now, can't our prayers change our foolish hearts? Can't angry hearts relent when touched by love? There's gotta be repentance on our parts, if all our faithlessness we'd rise above….”

WHY NOT PRACTICE PRAYER?

 “If we’ll just practice prayer every day, there’s surely gonna be a change in us. In prayer’s groove is where we gotta stay, if we want Buddha Christ ta steer our bus! Since Heaven’s where we hopeful want ta go, we gotta now repent and change our ways. If we would truly have more blessings flow, let’s offer up our thanks, requests, and praise!”

LOVE AND LIFE, NOT ANGER AND MURDER

“Anger is murder.”
"Will murdering my victims bring me bliss? Will anger lead me home ta self-respect? When I the mark of mercy badly miss, it’s Jesus Christ himself whom I reject. No Good is ever gonna come from That; true wealth, good health, and love I’ve thrown away. No, murderin’ ain’t Never where it’s at, and what I need ta do lots more is pray! So, Heaven, help me practice self-control, and help me love my self and all today. ‘Cause if my fears and anger take their toll, how will I Ever make it all okay?"
