It is not how long you live, my child,
But how well.

It's easier to attain great power
...

Who is on the Lord's side
It's often hard to tell
For few are they that serve Him
And fewer serve Him well
...

i awake with
Conscious fear
Where's that ring
I placed it here
...

Saints and sinners, now all late
Sleep silently beyond the gate
Where epitaphs abound
...

Then came a day (like never was)
When members of the flesh, with cause
Assembled to debate the laws
Concerning their dominion
...

Hey kid
Where're your folks
Where're you from?
...

They labour to discover how
This marvel of a man
Was cunningly conceived of old
Without a master plan
...

One day is as a thousand years
A thousand years one day
No sooner time drops fill the hour
They quickly drain away
...

What we see, taste, touch or feel
Cannot dictate what is real
And what our senses take to heart
Only tell the truth in part
...

Come let us tread the path of faith
With straight and narrow sides
That passes through the valley
In whose shadow death abides
...

History speaks of Jesus Christ
A good man who was killed

His Story speaks of boundless joy
...

Their beauty boasts of freshness
Even as the morning dew
And love that holds her value
Only while the day is new
...

(Inquirer)
O watchman, watchman
What of the night,
For alas the people sleep,
...

Now all our yesterdays are gone
(The bane of many sorrows)
Those passions we could not restrain
As moths before a naked flame
...

My son if thou wilt
Receive of my words
And hide my commandments within thee
That thou seekest wisdom
...
