Day Star A-Rising

This is not my writing, however I have permission to share this... so he will not rob the greater good it may do. It is a glory to our Savior.

Day Star A-Rising

Away in a manger, my mind drifts far east,
to wine for the broken and bread without yeast.
To a world most unworthy, comes right for our wrong,
we have a new reason, so I write you this song.

Our sin is common to all men you see,
tho the song is for you, its written by me,
and I am a freekazoid crawling the earth,
and without a fix there'd be no second birth.

And while we were yet sinners God sent in light,
to the humblest of place in a dark lonely night,
to the shepherds attending there roze no small fright,
as a blazing source made the black sky grow bright.

And when they'd pinched their pale gaunt cheeks,
knew they werent dreaming but felt a bit weak,
for there came an angel above the flock in the hay
and a heavnly host and the angel did say....

"Glory to God, lads, yer saviour is near,
in place for animals, not far from here."
So the message got out; was really great news,
that our falling far short need not end with a noose...

Holy creamoly, I'm a man with a name,
now an ugly cremudgeon can say without shame,
tho I have no credentials, I have a clean robe,
that Jesus can escort, and we soon shall elope.

For I once was the son of the father of lies,
but just as GOD promised He heard my fool cries,
and the days still drag, and the world I still fight
but I'm gauranteed a room where God is my light. (Phicksir)
 
Praise God,

Neil Diamond called songs
"forgotten reasons that are made of rhyme" *,
but tho they may be forgotten by the writer,
they may yet minister to the hearer.

So... thanks for thinking of that forward position
by sharing lost works, B.

And thanks also for sharing about superman...
something about the story seems to wrench on ya.
