Crazy Train


halfway to nowhere
and headed there fast
searching for something
that might just last
oblivious to the obvious
seeking obscurity
anything that will give
a sense of security
oh what crazy dreams
youthful minds aspire
low on commitment
high on desire
will I ever get there?
wherever 'there' may be
caught up in the crazy train
of the reckless and free.

Your Love Compels Me

I don't deserve it
the love that You show
I grumble and complain
and respond too slow
yet somehow Your mercy
outweighs my faults
You cast away my sin
in irretrievable vaults
I love you oh Lord
I want my life to show it
more than empty words
it's not enough to know it
take my stony heart
make it over new
send me and I'll go
I want to live for You!

Put A T-shirt On

I don't like
overcrowded beaches
that smell
of seagull poop
I do however
like ice cream
I'll take
a triple scoop
I don't like
cellulite
or those awful
bikinis with ruffles
that's all I'm
staring at now
hot, hungry
and thinking of truffles.
