Zeal

The Martyr 2/2009
A man of flame, a man of fire,
And burning now on the funeral pyre.
He lived his life to serve the Lord
Protecting him with deed and word,
Alight with zeal while he yet lived,
Responding to God's call to give,
And burning still, the man of fire.


Amazing Grace 7/10/2009
Weaker men have faced the sword;
Paul saw death and praised the Lord.
And here am I.
And here I die.
A “little Christ” so called
And facing trials oh so small.
And yet I pale.
And yet I fail.
Am I to represent the King?
I am not Paul, I cannot bring
This message to the lost and hurt
When I my God do oft' desert.
What grace! What love! To use me still
And in my soul this strength to fill.
