Arrogant Pride
Flee from sexual immorality and be saved,
For a little leaven leavens the whole batch of the dough!
And i am ever ready to show you the way through.
Your arrogant pride is not righteousness,
But do not associate yourself with fornicators;
For that may lead you on to be an object of ridicule.

Puffed Up
There is sexual impurity among you and,
You are puffed up with pride;
But don't you know that,
A little leaven leavens the whole batch of dough?
Come to me and learn from me,
Where the moon shines all the time at night;
Are you not competent to judege trivial matters?
Free sexual immorality and,
You will be saved.

Bible in Poetry: 1 Corinthians 5
Expel the Immoral Brother!
1 That sexual immorality
Exists amongst you is real,
And of a kind that doesn’t occur,
Even among the pagans yet:
If man has his own father's wife,
2 Can you be proud at anytime?
Shouldn't you be rather filled with grief?
And cut your fellowship with him?
3 though physically not present,
I’m with you in spirit always.
I’ve passed judgment on this bad man
Just as if I were present then.
4 When you’re assembled in Lord’s name,
I am with you in spirit then,
The power of Jesus is present,
5 hand over this man to Satan then,
So that, the sinful nature dies,
Or may be destroyed finally,
And his spirit saved on Lord’s Day.
6 Your boasting is not good at all.
Don't you know that a little yeast
Works through the entire dough fast?
7 Get rid of old yeast so that you
Could be a new batch without yeast—
Which you really are in fact!
For Christ, our Passover Lamb of God,
Has already been sacrificed.
8 Therefore, let’s keep the Festival,
Not with old yeast of malice, wickedness,
But with bread of sincerity and truth.
9 I have written you in my letter,
Not to associate with people
Who are sexually immoral—
10 not meaning people of this world
Who’re immoral, or the greedy
And swindlers, or idolaters.
In that case you must leave this world.
11 But now I write to you that you,
Must not associate with one
Who calls himself a brother but
Is sexually immoral or
Greedy, idolater and slanderer,
A drunkard or a swindler too.
Don’t even eat with such a man.
12 It isn’t my duty to judge those
Who are outside the church right now?
You are not to judge those inside?
13 God judges those who are outside.
'Expel the wicked man ’midst you.'

God’s Trophies
I am but one trophy of God’s Grace, to be displayed in every place,
Each and every place, which I go, for His Matchless Grace to show.
God’s trophy for all eyes to see, what God’s Grace has done in me,
God’s trophy is my changed life, of what He’s done in Jesus Christ.
This world is God’s trophy case, filled with those changed by Grace,
Changed to live their lives for Him, the Savior, who died for their sin.
Other fallen sinners just like us, who in Christ have placed their trust,
Trusting in The Lord above, He saved and changed us by His blood.
We are set in place by God to shine, with a Love that’s purely divine,
With a glow that’s not from us, but from our Savior’s Righteousness.
And when we let our Shepherd lead, God brings others to their need,
Their own need of the Savior’s Light, to deliver them out of the night.
So that they shall be a trophy too, of God’s Grace, like me and you,
Another sinner that has a New Life, through our Savior, Jesus Christ.
One more, saved to be a vessel for, the Righteousness of The Lord,
With work by God prepared for us, who come to know Christ Jesus.
We were saved to one day rise, to our eternal home above the skies,
Saved by Grace on this earthly sod, to be new trophies for our God,
Together we can shine His Light, in a world where wrong seems right,
And then will see our Savior’s face, when in God’s eternal showcase.

You know you turn me on
Eyes so white and legs so long
But don't try to talk to me
I won't listen to your lies
You're just an object in my eyes
You're just an object in my eyes
Sophisticated smile
You seduce in such fine style
But don't try to fool me
'cause i can see through your disguise
You're just an object in my eyes
You're just an object in my eyes
But i don't mind
I just don't care
I've got no objection
To you touching me there

But i don't mind

Role To Mention
We are human but not perfect
Yet pretend to be ignorant with the facts
Remain in total in darkness with no curse
Care for no one and never feel with remorse
We are intolerant
And act as mean or less important
Take pride in false living
Boost in arrogant manner and firmly believing
Women by any means no mean
They are kind and very keen
To respond with care and affection
We only hurt them with our action
They believe in building relation
Smile and show the indication
We fail to respond only with one consideration
They are sex object and need no elevation
Where all these steps can can lead to?
Is our approach honorable and true?
If so then we may need complete overhaul
If not then it may certainly invite downfall
They have tolerated enough
Passed through and walked on rough
Surface with so much of insult
Yes survived the bond and rebuilt
I care not because they women
But as companion and true man
They need our care and attention
Forget about their important role to mention

The Skinflint
The skinflint saved his policies,
The skinflint saved his plugs,
The skinflint saved his first house keys,
The skinflint saved his mugs...
The skinflint saved his chewing gum,
The skinflint saved his rope,
The skinflint saved his small toy drum,
The skinflint saved his soap...
The skinflint saved his worn-out shoes,
The skinflint saved his clothes,
The skinflint saved his tubes of glues,
The skinflint saved his bows...
The skinflint saved his dated files,
The skinflint saved his drapes,
The skinflint saved his airline miles,
The skinflint saved his tapes...
The skinflint saved, yes, on the whole...
The skinflint saved so well?
The skinflint never saved his soul!
So God sent him to Hell...

Fornicators And Adulterers
The land is full of fornicators and adulterers but,
I want to heal you with my love;
For there are many lessons to learn in life,
And of our sins which has brought in the dark rain.
Watch around you and see what is going on,
For ths world is now full of fornicators and adulterers!
But i want to heal you with my love.

Sexual Device
(stuart emerson)
Producer for bonnie: stuart emerson
Im a run away freight train
Headin on down your track
Im the eye of a hurricane
Shooting daggers in your back
Im the howl at the window
The sound of a crackling flame
Getting uncontrollable
And the lines about to break
Nine times out of ten
I get what I want
I always want more
Gonna get what Im looking for
Be my sexual
Be my sexual device
Be my sexual
Be my sexual device
Im a tiger in the bedroom
A mist in the air at night
Inconceivable
An oasis in the fire
A shock on the airwaves
A fighter with a hungry heart
Im incurable
A new sensation
No reservations
This time I win
This time you lose
I still want more
Give me what Im looking for
Be my sexual
Be my sexual device
Be my sexual
Be my sexual device
Be my sexual
Be my sexual device
Be my sexual
Be my sexual device

Lincoln Avenue
Well I guess this is where I left my life
And all its operations
And I know that I will never get this twice
With all negotiations
This feels like the place between what is and might have been
So I guess this is where we both find out
If this was meant to be
And I'll tell myself, I don't need you
I'll tell myself enough to get me through
But I'll finally show you how I should have been being with you every day
If you can take a little more
Now it takes me back to times on Lincoln Avenue
When you said you'd never get tired of the boy
That seemed to be so far from growing up
But we were different then
This feels like the place between being ready and being in the way
And I'll tell myself, I don't need you
I'll tell myself enough to get me through
But I'll finally show you how I should have been being with you every day
If you can wait a little more
This feels like the time that I'm ready for you
Are you ready for me
'Cause I'll tell myself I'll make it through
I'll tell myself anything to get over you
And I won't blame you but I'm finally ready to show you
That I'm ready to show you, I'm ready to show you, yeah
I'll tell myself that I never needed anybody anyway, but anyway
I need you
I need you now
I need you now
I'm ready now

Kwatemaa
It shall be eaten raw the same day and,
It shall be eaten raw the same night;
But to have sexual relation with the slave woman is,
Like going into her to relieve yourself.
Sela Hammahlekoth!
To pull back the bridle of a tyrant;
But after one sunny afternoon you are with your lover Kwatemaa,
And you think that all is well with her too.
Life is full of tar and pits,
But do righteousness and be repaid with righteousness;
For whatever you sow is what you expect to reap out again!

You Could Show Me
I don't know how to begin
To let myself let you in
But you
Maybe you could show me
There's so much more I would say
If someone showed me the way
Like you
Maybe you could show me
I've been so used to getting what I want
Doing what I want to do
I've always been the one who took the lead
Now I find I need
I need to follow you
So won't you help me come through
My future's long overdue
It's time
I think I'm ready now
And you could show me how

Ready To Love
When I look at you all I can see
Is the shadow of your life
You see this stage is a mirror
You can see me
But I can't see past its light
Lovers have tried to reach down inside
I only said that they were wrong
But when all I've got left is me and my pride
I realize you can't buy love with a song
So somebody take me out of the night
Show me what life is made of
Won't somebody reach inside of my heart
I think that I'm ready to love
I think that I'm ready to love
I feel like I'm ready to love
Well a lesson that's learned too late is a crime
I can't stand the pain of what could have been
Oh it's such a shame there's no one to blame
But no one knows what I have seen
What do you see when you look at me
Do I really seem so far away
But the song will go on
And you will applaud
And look at me I'll just keep singing
Somebody take me out of the night
Show me what life is made of
Won't somebody reach inside of my heart
I think that I'm ready to love
I think that I'm ready to love
I feel like I'm ready to love
Oh show me what life's made of
Somebody please reach inside of my heart
I think that I'm ready to love
I think that I'm ready to love
I feel like I'm ready

Stentorian
The same passion,
Reputation,
Stetorian,
Optimum;
But many African leaders really lack foresighted leadership! !
And like an object of horror in the land of peace.
Thoughts of peace,
Thoughts of love,
Thoughts of care,
Thoughts of unity;
And like an object of ridicule to others!
But in front of your eyes today, is the story of the East Africans.

Bible in Poetry: 1 Corinthians 6
Lawsuits among Believers:
1If you have dispute with the next,
Don’t take it to the ungodly
For judgment instead of the saints?
2 Don’t you know that saints judge world?
And if you are to judge the world,
Can you not judge trivial cases?
3 Don’t you know that we’ll judge angels?
How much more then things of this life!
4 If you have disputes on such things,
Appoint as judges even men,
Of little account in the church!
5 I say this only to shame you.
Is it not possible for one
Among you wise enough to judge
A dispute between believers?
6 But brother fight against brother—
And in front of non-believers!
7 The fact that you have lawsuits then,
Among you means, you are defeated.
Why do you not rather be wronged?
Why not you rather be cheated?
8 Instead, you cheat and the wrongs,
And do this to your own brothers.
9Don’t you know that the wicked don’t
Inherit the kingdom of God?
Do not be deceived:
Don’t be sexually immoral,
Idolaters, adulterers,
Nor homosexual offenders,
Nor male prostitutes in your life.
10 Nor thieves nor greedy nor drunkards
Nor slanderers nor swindlers will
Inherit the kingdom of God.
11And that is what, some of you were.
But you were washed and sanctified;
You’re justified in Jesus’ name,
And by the Spirit of our God.
Sexual Immorality:
12'All’s permissible for me'—
But it is not beneficial.
'All’s permissible for me'—
But I’ll not be mastered by it.
13'Food for stomach, stomach for food'—
But God will destroy both of them.
The body is not meant for sex,
That’s immoral then,
But for the Lord, and Lord for it.
14 God’s power raised the Lord from dead,
And He will raise us also next.
15Your bodies are members of Christ!
Could I then take members of Christ
Uniting them with prostitute? Never!
16 He who unites with prostitute
Is one with her in body too?
’Tis said, 'The two become one flesh.'
17But he who unites with the Lord
Becomes one with Him in spirit.
18 So, flee from sexual immorality.
All other sins a man commits
Are outside his body of course,
But he who sins sexually then,
Does sin against his own body.
19Do you not know that your body
Is temple of Spirit Holy?
The latter is in your body,
Whom you’ve received from Lord, the God.
You are not your own, dear brother;
20You were bought at a price with blood
So, honor God with your body.

The Undying Wish
As old, one still apes a youth,

Iniquity
All religions have come to the point that,
Sin is acceptable and is never fought against;
Not even 'The Ten Commandments' are taught or kept anymore,
But the heavens are waiting for our judgement! !
And like the illegal lust which has covered our minds on this earth.
The swinging life style of mankind,
The world is now cut off from the Creator because of iniquity;
And many are not ready for His Laws,
But only few will be saved in the name of righteousness.
