Promise with condition
I can move the earth
Provided I find a place to stand on.
I can carry the hill
Provided it is placed on me.
Often we make promises
With conditions as convenience.

Convenience
Needing!
And again I am from you...
Addiction free.
What you provided was not love.
What you provided,
Was a convenience to me.
A convenience to have someone there.
To hear breathing the air.
As if the company kept...
Communicated with chemistry.
Needing!
And again I am from you...
Addiction free.
It occurred to me,
To you I was just something to do.
And that wasn't done,
Seriously.
Even together,
You preferred to play hide and seek.
And I discovered,
I want and need love.
And when you left that feeling stayed.
Then I knew what you gave,
Was not love.
But a game to be played.
Needing!
And again I am from you...
Addiction free.
What you provided was not love.
What you provided,
Was a convenience to me.
A convenience that eventually,
Faded.
After the quick and ease of preparation,
Left immediately upon its release.

Global Warning
GLOBAL WARNING
The earth rose out of chaos,
the earth was alone,
God provided man to earth
both of them started living harmoniously
man loved nature
nature provided man everything
man won the world through science
reached on moon
forgot the earth
engulfed in new materialistic pleasures
forgot ozone layer
done the nuclear explosion
increased pollution
filled the earth with dust and smoke
forgot nature
global warming is increasing
the survival of man is decreasing

We can gradually grow into any condition we desire, provided we first make ourselves in habitual mental attitude the person who corresponds to those conditions.

I shall know
I shall know
When time comes to throw
Whole of my weight to that belief
For providing real relief
It is expected
To change when truly acted
In love, in hate and in recognition
You have provided me true ignition
Dreams do come true
When one has passed through
In ordeals and in real
To the greatness and to fee
I, for one, loved and lost
But what did it cost?
Nothing in fact
All were nice acts
It is true union
To find with companion
When one feels truly blessed
Relief from life when not at all chased
It is just a smile
That provided happiness meanwhile
All goes well with his mercy
I share and bow before almighty
You were never to be mine
To provide me joy to feel fine
It has come from a great wave
When I had escape and clean shave
What on part is expected?
Real bond and promises to be acted
In spirit and in anticipation
For strengthening the relation

Our strategic dialogue with China can both protect American interests and uphold our principles, provided we are honest about our differences on human rights and other issues and provided we use a mix of targeted incentives and sanctions to narrow these differences.

Assurances
I need no assurances, I am a man who is preoccupied of his own soul;
I do not doubt that from under the feet and beside the hands and
face I am cognizant of, are now looking faces I am not cognizant
of, calm and actual faces,
I do not doubt but the majesty and beauty of the world are latent in
any iota of the world,
I do not doubt I am limitless, and that the universes are limitless,
in vain I try to think how limitless,
I do not doubt that the orbs and the systems of orbs play their
swift sports through the air on purpose, and that I shall one day
be eligible to do as much as they, and more than they,
I do not doubt that temporary affairs keep on and on millions of years,
I do not doubt interiors have their interiors, and exteriors have
their exteriors, and that the eyesight has another eyesight, and
the hearing another hearing, and the voice another voice,
I do not doubt that the passionately-wept deaths of young men are
provided for, and that the deaths of young women and the
deaths of little children are provided for,
(Did you think Life was so well provided for, and Death, the purport
of all Life, is not well provided for?)
I do not doubt that wrecks at sea, no matter what the horrors of
them, no matter whose wife, child, husband, father, lover, has
gone down, are provided for, to the minutest points,
I do not doubt that whatever can possibly happen anywhere at any
time, is provided for in the inherences of things,
I do not think Life provides for all and for Time and Space, but I
believe Heavenly Death provides for all.

Eviction
Eviction
A picture formed by ultra sound
will only cost a pound or two
You can be sure it will astound
everyone you show it to
A picture of your unborn child.
Thanks to modern technology
still innocent and undefiled.
Kept safe within the sanctuary
provided by his mothers womb
He has no idea at all that he
must soon vacate his private room
Where everything’s provided free.
Although he would much rather stay
He can’t dictate the time and place
Dame Nature will brook no delay
He has to join the human race.

Wouldn't It Be Wonderful
Wouldn't it be wonderful...
If reality provided each one of us with escapes.
To celebrate those moments.
And we were free to place orders,
For our favorite tastes.
Topped with fresh whipped cream.
Delighting each bite of the walnuts crushed.
And those sweet strawberries dipped in chocolate,
Slowly satiating and prolonging this as we ate.
Without haste or hint of a rush.
Wouldn't it be wonderful...
If reality provided each one of us with escapes.
To dance and hold hands on lush green hilltops.
And shocked by anyone who dared to speak of hate.
Wouldn't it be wonderful?
Wouldn't this be great?
Wouldn't it just be marvelous,
If we all debated...
On a date this could,
And would take place.

Wet Lands In June
It is June and the skies are charging
With thunder and clouds full of water
We see the restoration of a normal beginning
Indeed God has made us a wonder
The earth is wet, the flowers are in full bloom
Giving way to new fruits
Yam and corn are enough to consume
And water washing down to their roots
The inhabitants now make merry
Their cries have ceased
For there are so many crops to carry
Harvests have again increased
The thirst of the land has been quenched by the rain
Giving us a shift from death to birth
Our cries to the Lord were not in vain
And he has provided us with much mirth
Come lets rejoice, for the hand of iniquity has been removed
Our integrity has been reinstated
Because living conditions on our farms has improved
The answer to prayers long awaited
Praise be to the Almighty for these great things
For we now celebrate again in June
There are abundant of water springs
And each and every one has a silver spoon.

Doing One or The Other
Do not 'threaten' with promises,
To move and go away.
Do it!
Your perception will be enhanced.
You will know who misses you and why.
You will know the value of your opinions.
And that influence you believe you have achieved,
Over others?
Sit and wait by your telephone,
To hear how much you are endeared!
Do not 'threaten' with promises,
To move and go away.
Do it!
Your perception will be enhanced.
You will either perceive yourself,
As being an overused convenience.
Or you will quit leaving yourself voicemail...
To test an underused answering service.
Doing one or the other will snap you into reality.
And dramatically your thoughts will change.

I Stand In Him
Today I stand in Jesus Christ, this I do in spite of myself,
In my poor spiritual life, God filled me with eternal wealth.
I bring nothing to the cross, or The God of my Salvation,
But my dark sin and dross, as He fills me with adoration.
In this life I came to Him, The Lord God and our Creator,
Who forgave all my sin, to become my Lord and Savior.
And my Lord gives to me, though I am not deserving of,
New Life in Him eternally, provided by my Savior’s Love.
Now I stand with the Lord, as a member of God’s family,
To receive from Him reward, which extends into Eternity.
I stand today fully forgiven, of all my sin and my shame,
And the new life I am given, is in the power of His Name.
Now for God I take a stand, with His message to impart,
Helping men to understand, only He can change a heart.
By His Covenant of Grace, that He extends to everyone,
Making hearts a dwelling place, for the Spirit of His Son.
I came to Him out of the night, with my life so depraved,
And entered into His Light, on the day when I was saved.
Now in Him I stand forever, granted by God, Eternal Life,
In Him who changes never, His Eternal Son Jesus Christ.

Good Love
(j.p. maunick/p.hinds)
If you believe that you get out what you put in
You better move on cos theres no time to fool around
All the right intentions & promises dont mean a thing
If you cant get the job done
If you insist on making life a compromise
Youre gonna wake up to find your world has come undone
All the right intentions & promises are never enough
And soon you find it all gone
Now time has come, make up your mind to be real
Baby, baby, baby
Chorus:
Good love, precious & gifted
Cant stand waitin forever
Good love, no greater feelin
No one could ever deny
Stop wastin all the good love
Youre takin your time comin to let me know
Now you better decide cos theres a limit to your games
Let your intuition lead you on
Follow the signs to the place you belong
If you believe that you get out what you put in
You better move on cos theres no time to fool around
All the right intentions & promises dont mean a thing
If you cant get the job done
Now time has come, make up your mind to be real
Baby, baby, baby
Chorus x 2
Dont go wastin good love
Now time has come, make up your mind to be real
Baby, baby, baby
Chorus
Repeat (fade)

Religion or Life
Religion I hate, Life I love; one’s from earth the other from above,
The Life I love is from God, while religion is from this earthly sod.
A religion of earth leads to death; Life from God is eternal breath,
New Life is given by Christ Jesus, as religion will only mislead us.
Religion, call it what you may, distorts Truth from God’s only way,
The way provided to all of us, who in God’s Word place their trust,
New Life from God, in His Son, regarding truth, is second to none,
For religion truthfully has no part, in truly changing a sinner’s heart.
Religion can make us feel good, creating a common brotherhood,
Filling life with religious stuff, but salvifically it doesn’t do enough.
It doesn’t reach the heart of men, inspiring them to be Born Again,
Through the Spirit of Jesus Christ, who alone offers men New Life.
Religion can fill a need on earth, but, eternally men need new birth,
We need to be born spiritually, to have new life with God eternally.
All religions on earth my friend, with the world will come to an end,
While all who have Life from God, will live beyond this earthly sod.
Religion comes in many forms, and around men’s ways conforms,
While God’s Only Way is higher, with Eternal Life being His desire,
Which will be granted to all of us, who, in His Son place their trust,
A Life far above all man’s ways, while giving to God eternal praise.

One-side still matters
What you told is of no use unless heard.
What you wrote is of no use unless read.
Whom you love, though one-side, still matters
Provided that she knows that you love her.

Like a Welcomed Habit
You still have no clue what you are dealing with.
And from the very beginning,
I provided the evidence.
When are you going to accept?
Have I ever boosted with brash bravado?
I don't have to!
Would someone who drops clues,
Do that?
I think not!
You still have no clue what you are dealing with.
And from the very beginning,
I provided the evidence.
That's how empathetic I can be at times.
And it is perfectly fine,
Others are convinced of an ego attachment.
I'm closer to you than I am to that.
That's why I want you enjoying me,
Like a welcomed habit.

Take You On Peak
There are so many things besides
Deep meaning and insight provides
Flowers and their fragrance spread all over
Even if provided no cover
Do roses need any introduction?
Do the words need any recognition?
Absolutely no if they are properly conveyed
If not then people may guess and stay dismayed
Words have power and strength
It has variety and can cover any length
Spoken or silent carry same meaning
Where it goes then there is point in winning
Words are reflection of stable mind
No where you may have deviation to find
The work is done as per promises made in words
There is no going back but only to look towards
It may have desired effect
Even if not put into act
There is somewhere hidden fact
Words make it forceful with tact
Rest of the things eyes score
People can read clearly therefore
Face and mouth may act together
There is only adding of feather
Love the words as they are spoken
They are not mere gesture or token
Once out then can't be taken back
As there may be lot more at stake
Think and then speak
It may otherwise make you weak
Speak firmly and then stick
These all quality may take you at the peak
