Waves crashing down

-
It's so easy when the waves come crashing down

To look around in silence and say you havn't heard a sound

It's so easy to say God is all around

When you've had enough of living and are wasted on the ground
The head banger in the street are on fire tonight
Another killing, one more fight
It's  so easy to say Jesus saves the day

When you bury one brother while another's locked away
It's so easy to say these people are my own
When you don't really own them
People without a home are God's people all alone

If it's so easy look me straight in the eye
Say you know someday I'm surely going to die

Tell me, no show me, that God is really here
If it's so easy can Jesus feel my tears?

Children Rise

The songs in the clouds sing when they rain Cause of my serene and obscure brain What must God do to choose Who will win and who will lose? God bless the child that sees that moon Knowing that the sun will be still soon If the blues are in your way Lose yourself, find a different day If clouds in your eyes Are blinding you now Don't draw them in Find a way to give them out Through despair a seed will grow The darkness then will start to glow Use what you find underground Bring it out, pass it around What we take in today We can lose tomorrow To find a way past your sorrow Look into your neighbor's eyes Tomorrow realize some part of you Can and will grow Plant the seeds of Truth

Darkness cries for Light

Darkness cries for light Light comes shining through Abstract shadows come and go Hope is calling you A steady stream of people Call for light to come But while each hides a face from God The darkness blocks the sun Inside you blindness lingers It's fingers wrap around your soul You reach for the door Any way out Listen to God, to what you've been  told Light prevails while darkness dies Stop the madness, stop the lies Turn your face toward God and then The light will shine on you again
