Your Words Ring With Truth
Your words ring with truth
Your cause cries with justice
Your pain rest on my conscious
Your love comforts my heart

The Truth Lies
The truth lies
Somewhere between halve truths
And white lies
The truth lies
Between excuses
And alibis
The truth lies
Somewhere between you and I
The truth just lies

Nature Calls
Winds whisper
Secret truths
Doves cry
A lullaby
Singing Seas
Silence tides
Mountain walls
Echo’s ride
Desert’s drone
Lovers hide
And when
Duty Calls
Soldier's Rise

Your Reign
Your reign of pain
Is flowing through
My brain
While your insanity
Prepares for its
Next game
The floods that
You have caused
Remain
Your responsibility
Continues arguing
With my blame
And honesty is
Just nowhere
To be found

Freedom Rises
Freedom rises
Without accords
From our John Hancock’s
Freedom roars
Spread the news
From shore to shore
In an instance
Freedom pours
From words until
All men are created equal
Endowed with inalienable rights
To life liberty and the pursuit of
Happiness
Now floods the barren shores

I Hear an Angel Calling
I hear a far off storm brewing
I heard an angel calling
I heard of one more falling
Angel’s
Talking of our world’s colliding
Asking if our love is abiding
Asking if anything is written in stone
Angel’s
Waiting to take us home
Everyone is trying to escape time
Right this way you better get in line
Angel’s

Broken Hearted People
Broken hearted people
We have all been dealt the mortal wound
Broken hearted people
We know that it is not a lethal wound
Broken hearted people
Loved like we all do
Until there is nothing left to lose
Broken hearted people
Have all paid our dues
Broken hearted people
We keep on loving because
Broken hearted people
We know there is nothing else to do

Smile Of My Son
A child’s love was sent to me
On an angel’s wings
His laughter like
A heavenly symphony
Sweet laughter delivered to my soul
One note worth more than any gold
Oh lord thank you for opening your heavenly gate
And delivering to me the smile on my child’s face
Thank you Lord
For a job well done
Oh God I know you exist
When I see the smile of my son

All Of Their Laughter
A child’s smile is a gift from God
A child’s touch like that of Angel’s wings
A wriggle of their nose like the spread of fairy dust
A child’s dimples softer than cream puffs
A look from their eyes like catching a shooting star
A child’s hug is like falling through a cloud
When each child falls asleep in their home
All of their laughter dances back to his throne
