Weak from the journey, the long travelling days/ Hungry to worship, to join in the praise/ Shock mad with anger that burned on His face/ As He entered the wasteland of that barren place
Chorus:
And the Lamb is a Lion who’s roaring with rage/At the empty religion that’s filling their days/ They’ll flee from the hug of the Carpenter’s strong arm/ And come to know the scourging anger of the Lord
Priests and the merchants demanded some proof/ For their hearts were hardened and blind to the Truth/ But Satan’s own law is to sell and to buy/ But God’s only way is to give and to die
– Repeat Chorus-
The noise and confusion gave way to His word At last sacred silence so God could be heard…

Poem of Your Life
The Bible tells us that each of our lives tell a story. We are like masterpieces of God’s artistry. The greek word is poiema, from which we get our English word “poem”.
- We are God’s poems. (Ephesians 2.10)
- We are living epistles (2 Corinthians 3.3).
In this video Phil Keaggy joins Michael Card to play Poem of Your Life, a Celtic-ish piece from Card’ album Poiema.
Life is a song we must sing with our days/A poem with meaning more than words can say/A painting with colors no rainbow can tell/A lyric that rhymes either heaven or hell
We are living letters that doubt desecrates/We’re the notes of the song of the chorus of faith/God shapes every second of our little lives/And minds every minute as the universe waits by
CHORUS: The pain and the longing/The joy and the moments of light/Are the rhythm and rhyme/The free verse of the poem of life
So look in the mirror and pray for the grace/To tear off the mask, see the art of your face/Open your ear lids to hear the sweet song/Of each moment that passes and pray to prolong
Your time in the ball of the dance of your days/Your canvas of colors of moments ablaze/With all that is holy/With the joy and the strife/With the rhythm and rhyme of the poem of your life/With the rhythm and rhyme of the poem of your life

Glorious Day!
Come Worship the Lord
Come, worship the Lord
For we are His people, the flock that He shepherds

And shout with joy to the Rock who saves us
Let us come with thanksgiving
And sing joyful songs to the LordThe Lord is God, a mighty God
The great King o’er all the gods
He holds in His hands the depths of the earth
And the highest mountains as well
He made the sea; it belongs now to Him
The dry land, too, was formed by His handSo…
Come, let us bow down in worship
Bending the knee before the Lord our Maker
For we are His people
We are the flock that He shepherdsSo…
Aleluia, Aleluia
Things We Leave Behind
There sits Simon foolish and wise
Proudly he’s tending his nets
Jesus calls and the boat drifts away
All that he owns he forgetsMore than the nets he abandoned that day
He found that his pride was soon fading awayIt’s hard to imagine the freedom we find
From the things we leave behindMatthew was mindful of taking the tax
Pressing the people to pay
Hearing the call he responded in faith
And followed the light and the wayLeaving the people so puzzled he found
The greed in his heart was no longer aroundEvery heart needs to be set free
From possessions that press in so tight
Freedom is not found in the things that we own
It’s the power to do what is rightWith Jesus our only possession
Giving becomes our delight
We can’t imagine the freedom we find
From the things we leave behindWe show a love for the world in our lives
Worshipping goods we possess
Jesus said lay all your treasures aside
And love God above all the restWhen we say no to the things of the world
We open our hearts to the love of the Lord
