"GREAT THEOLOGY IS ALWAYS A KIND OF GIANT AND INTRICATE POETRY, LIKE EPIC OR SAGA"

William Blake Quote
If the doors of perception were cleansed
every thing would appear to man as it is,
INFINITE
every thing would appear to man as it is,
INFINITE

New Wine
The Clementine gifts in 2009
Were symbolic
Of something alcoholic
Could be from the 'Grapes of Laugh'
Or maybe fermented from a bitter past-
Heaven knows
But one thing is clear
The taste that once set our teeth on edge
Is gone-no longer here
Thank You, sweet Jesus
It's Your Spirit
That frees us
Helping us restore blocked water sources
Supplying refreshment-changing our courses
It's finding new direction
Not a matter of our perfection
You are the Perfect One
The Father's uniquely precious Son
Heaven knows
But one thing is clear
The taste that once set our teeth on edge
Is gone-no longer here
Thank You, sweet Jesus
It's Your Spirit
That frees us
Helping us restore blocked water sources
Supplying refreshment-changing our courses
It's finding new direction
Not a matter of our perfection
You are the Perfect One
The Father's uniquely precious Son

Smokin' flaxes
Thank You Lord for not quenching smoking flaxes
Your grace brings us to a place that relaxes
And You don't discard bruised reeds
Instead You come in love
With Your Truth
To meet each of our needs
What could be better
Released from each fetter
Joy for our sorrow
Less and less anxious about tomorrow
Your grace brings us to a place that relaxes
And You don't discard bruised reeds
Instead You come in love
With Your Truth
To meet each of our needs
What could be better
Released from each fetter
Joy for our sorrow
Less and less anxious about tomorrow
