Heads or Tails?

The dream ends

An alarm sounds

The sweat drips

And the heart pounds

 

The quarter spins

And flies on high

Two face grins

Will you live or die

 

But it’s not chance

That roils the mind

Or brings oppression

That clouds the mind

 

The hand it reaches

A light turns on

The coin has landed

Right or wrong

Conquer my heart again
Conquer my heart again
Let my eyes be for only Him
The price was paid I no longer belong
To the world but to the Lamb and my God

It’s more than emotion feeling or grit
More than devotion or cold bitter grist
It’s an indwelling where two work as one
Where the Spirit woos heart
And the penitent comes

Some hearts grow cold hard and defiant
Some children get lost- and are not reliant
Some eyes wander and cause a betrayal.
Apostates cause untold travail-
But You still lifted the veil

Conquer my heart again
Let my eyes be for only Him
The price was paid I no longer belong
To the world but to the Lamb and my God

You changed creatures into the new
Created again like mornings wet dew
Built a house out of ashes and dust
Threw down the morning star
And set Love on us

Conquer my heart again

Eternal dance

Some see the stars,

And praise the fading lights.

Some see the sun waning

And celebrate the night.

 

Some see the moon

And celebrate reflection

In the fires of On dying

Souls bereft of direction.

 

Some seek out elves

And creature’s best forgot,

But those who give God love

They know just what they’ve got.

 

They have a passion

An eternal jealous fire

They have a protection

A consuming freeing desire.

 

They have an eternity

To serve the one they need

When they are made complete

And bow down at His feet.
