Seven Months
How can I forget you
Disregard how I feel
Silently listen
To the words I cant see
For as long as I have tried
And as low as I can be
I will never resign myself
From the trial I seek
Why should I forgive you
After all that Ive seen
Quietly whisper
When my heart wants to scream
For as long as I have tried
And as low as I can be
I will never resign myself
From the trial I seek
Theres no time to rest
Or to reconsider
For this cruel unsaid, wont concede
For as long as I have tried
And as low as I can be
I will never resign myself
From the trial I seek

The second trial was a fair trial. I do not call it a second trial. I call it a fair trial, as opposed to the first trial, which was an unfair trial, a Roman holiday.

Through Our Journey
Another new journey in this life, one where uncertainty’s rife,
As I finish leg number two, I know God will see me through,
Even if the journey’s long, The Lord fills my heart with song,
Two more legs, maybe three, but, I know it leads to Eternity.
Even while the uncertainties rail, I know my Lord shall prevail,
As God will help me and my wife, through this trial in our life,
For I’m hers and she is mine, and we must let our Lord shine,
As Christ guides us together, in His Light which lasts forever.
Through this trial we shall cope, with eyes fixed on our Hope,
Christ, who as in times before, will guide us to that final door,
One He’ll help us close behind, while giving us peace of mind,
When He delivers both of us, through this trial in, Christ Jesus.
In the trial, Christ helps us grow, but, God also wants to show,
Unsaved friends and family, what only trials may let them see;
The grace God grants both of us, as in Him we place our trust,
While we know and understand, both our lives are in His Hand.
We still may not know the end, but, Christ, our God and friend,
Shall be with us at every turn, as we hope loved ones will learn,
To see His faithfulness and love, to seek The Lord God above,
So that our friends and family, can live with us through Eternity.

The vice president had a bargaining asset, however, that no ordinary person has: He was next in line to the presidency. I saw no chance that he would resign first, then take his chances on trial, conviction, and jail.

Trial By Fire
Treasures in the jars of clay
Let the light shine out of darkness
Fallen down but not destroyed
Its just another trial by fire
In my song Ill send a prayer
Do you know me, do you hear me
Where the will to face this shame
Its just another trial by fire
Hello mr. moon
Can I have some time with you
Trouble keep me runnin...
You can see it comin...

Hello mr. moon

In my doubt I cant believe
Like a wave tossed where the wind blows
Tears of faith temper my soul
Just another trial by fire
Just another trial by fire

Purpose In My Trial
Every minute, hour, every morning, He is with me into evening,
And He’s with me all night long, as He fills my heart with song,
A song that carries me all day, as I walk along that narrow way,
In the most trying time of my life, I’m led along by Jesus Christ.
The trial could be here to stay, but, Christ is with me every day,
And every day, He gives me hope, as The Lord helps me cope,
Though the times may look bleak, He helps me when I am weak,
In my weakness His power shows, as my strength in Him grows.
My hope is beyond what I know, as my Faith He allows to grow,
While His Spirit directs me above, all through the trial I speak of,
My trial that will not last forever, while God will forsake me never,
While I walk with Him earnestly, looking forward towards Eternity.
Though I am tried for a while, He helps me keep a cheerful smile,
From God’s peace, He put inside, as in Christ, my Savior I abide,
Through God’s strength and power, as I abide each day and hour,
Being a testimony, for all to see, of the Grace, Christ granted me.
It’s for God’s purpose that I’m here, so in my trial, I need not fear,
Or get weighed down in anxiety, as He knows what’s best for me,
For God, I am here as living proof, of God’s Power and His Truth,
A light, for those around my life, that they may know Jesus Christ.

Seek
Seek and you will find
the glory of the divine,
seek and you shall see
the world and all its glory,
seek and you will feel
love’s arrow pierce your heart.
Seek and whatever you seek
will one day be yours,
but you must want it enough
to seek it out and find
the hidden dreams
that lay within your mind.

The Birmingham Six
They came out of prison
To face the real world
Those long-suffering men,
Seventeen years they had served.
Seventeen years for a bomb crime
They did not commit...how can we
Be so wrong, when on the Jury
we sit.
I quote words from
Gilbert and Sullivan's
Trial by Jury:
'Now, jurymen, hear my advice.
All kinds of vulgar prejudice
I pray you set aside.
With stern judicial frame of mind
From bias free of every kind
This Trial must be tried'.

Fooled By Jealous Lies
You don’t see my smile
Its been hidden for so long
I feel like your words are my trial
Coz my innocence is so long gone
Does this mean our end?
Well let me tell you this
Now that I am once more free
No longer staving for your kiss
Well I hope you can see the real me
Coz I still only see you in this light
But you know that my tears are there
Although I swore not to turn round
Being alone is just too much of a scare
So I will run back to where my peace is found
And I know that I was wrong to accuse
I saw the sadness in your eyes
Coz I listened to her and let her win
I let her weave her sinister lies
And believed that it was your sin
But now I know the truth
I know that what I said was unfair
I realise I let my emotions go
But let me show that I do care
Even though I am really slow
Please forgive my mistake
I'm sorry

Atonement
Shadows are comforting companions quiet and gentle
Reflecting on my actions nothing appears to be accidental
Surrounded by darkness or a very dim light I am free
Admitting to my true feelings I make you the trustee
You said you envisioned a shadow above your head
Now you know it was me and just like a dark threat
In my room when everything turns to grey and stone
It is you I seek out and to you I truly wish to atone
I want to apologize for everything that I will do wrong
For not being there when you need me and for being gone
I cheated myself pretending that I dont need you at all
Now I wish I could take it back and stay for the long haul
Please believe that you are the only one that I ever needed
All else fades in the shade and nothing important preceded
Forgive me for not being by your side every day of the year
I take full responsibility for leaving and my sorrow is severe
Being sorry is probably not enough for you but please know
I can still feel you every second of the day from head to toe
I am begging you to release my free will and letting me forget
But I guess that wouldn't be fair to you so I remain in your debt
I'm not sure if I ever get closure with you and come to an end
But to you I like to make amends and it is my love I apprehend
I hope that you're o.k. and your heart does not bleed like mine
Knowing that I deserve this I'm saying sorry again and resign

Seek Beauty
how long
and how lonely
are the steeps of your lies
and yet
how painfully liberating is the path that your truth requires?
so seek
seek beauty
in laughter and in tears
seek love
and fantastic colours just may highlight the dust in your eyes
seek beauty
coz in the end
when the lamp oil
burnt the flicker once and for all
we fade
we perish in that final hour
savouring the promise of glorious dawn
so seek
seek beauty in the ugly and in the vain
seek love
and fantastic colours just may highlight
the dust in your eyes
seek beauty
and take joy
in your daily struggle
let go repulsion as it clings to the shock
discovery
entering illumination
the transformation of matter into void
so seek
seek beauty
in corruption and in the pure
seek love
and fantastic colours just may highlight the dust in your eyes
seek beauty
seek beauty!

A Day With No Regrets
I seek to express
With acts and words to impress
I live today, a day with no regrets
No stress, no distress shall ever wreck
The ecstasy that sings and rings within me
For today
A heart is liberate
A mind at rest
A body unstressed
Let the sun come forth and shine
Let worries and qualms resign
A world today I shall design
And adorn it; I shall with words of kind
For Today with them, I dine
Let the world set itself ablaze
With nothing but tranquility I gaze
For nothing shall arouse a daze
For I live today, a day with no regrets

The Ponderings
None did try and reach out
in an attempt to find or seek
The emotional upheavals,
when sensitivities were trying to wreak
Aided and abetted in building
domains most others aspired
Couldn't save own foundations
which were providentially mired
Each hurt that I tended
was reciprocated with a stabbing gash
The pain could though be well endured
but the sardonic whiplash
Far long has the wait been
for the winds to amend and favorably align
I will ride the next gust that blows through
and to fate's intent resign

100 Tears Away
Go ahead and cry now
Just give in to the madness
The only way to feel your joy
Is to first feel the sadness
Go ahead and sail now
Just give in to the ocean
The only way to tame your fear
Is to feel her rocky motion
Youre a long way from somewhere you call home yeah
Theres a place in your heart youre not alone
All of the happiness you seek
All of the joy for which you pray
Is closer than you think
Its just 100 tears away
Go ahead and listen
Just give into the voices
You think youre backed into a corner
But youve got so many choices
Youre a long way from somewhere you call safe
Peace of mind comes from just one place
All of the happiness you seek
All of the joy for which you pray
Is closer than you think
Its just 100 tears away
Youre a long way from somewhere you call home
Theres a place in your heart youre not alone
All of the happiness you seek
All of the joy for which you pray
Is closer than you think
Its just 100 tears away
Whatever it is thatll make you feel good
You can have if you want
If you knew that you could
Its closer than you think
Its just 100 tears away

Dear Madam Barnum
I put on a fake smile
And start the evening show
The public is laughing
I guess by now they know
So climb from your high horse
And pull this freak show down
Dear madam barnum
I resign as clown
You said I was the master of all I surveyed
But now Im sweeping up
The last in line in your circus parade
Children are clapping
As I fall to the floor
My heart torn and broken
And they just scream for more
If Im not the sole fool
Who pulls his trousers down
Then dear madam barnum
I resign as clown
You tread the high wire
Between truth and lies
Your safety net just walked out
Much to your surprise
Strike up the band love
And let the show begin
For this is the last time
Im painting on a grin
If Im not the sole fool
Who pulls his trousers down
Then dear madam barnum
I resign as clown

The Usher's Charge
Now, Jurymen, hear my advice -
All kinds of vulgar prejudice
I pray you set aside:
With stern judicial frame of mind -
From bias free of every kind,
This trial must be tried!
Oh, listen to the plaintiff's case:
Observe the features of her face -
The broken-hearted bride!
Condole with her distress of mind -
From bias free of every kind,
This trial must be tried!
And when amid the plaintiff's shrieks,
The ruffianly defendant speaks -
Upon the other side;
What HE may say you need not mind -
From bias free of every kind,
This trial must be tried!

A just flash
Just flash of light
Something likes comet’s tail
Felled on track
No trace
Silence
Some noble soul departed
Some pairs separated
Crisis averted
Lull prevailed
Nothing availed
May be bad omen or sign
I silently resign
Not to see or sign
Relief or sigh
Resign
Helplessly watch natural signal
May be out cry original
Death birth or anything
New sign of arrival
Good revival

A Hymn
While thee I seek, protecting Power!
Be my vain wishes still'd;
And may this consecrated hour
With better hopes be fill'd.
Thy love the powers of thought bestow'd,
To thee my thoughts would soar;
Thy mercy o'er my life has flow'd-
That mercy I adore.
In each event of life, how clear,
Thy ruling hand I see;
Each blessing to my soul more dear,
Because conferr'd by thee.
In every joy that crowns my days,
In every pain I bear,
My heart shall find delight in praise,
Or seek relief in prayer.
When gladness wings my favour'd hour,
Thy love my thoughts shall fill:
Resign'd, when storms of sorrow lower,
My soul shall meet thy will.
My lifted eye without a tear
The lowring storm shall see;
My stedfast heart shall know no fear-
That heart will rest on Thee!
