TheCypressTimes : Palace Of Poets, Mike Bullock

All the power that I possess
Is given by The One
Who died upon a cross for me
Yes Jesus, Gods' own Son
Whenever I go traveling
He's there to bring me back
There's no place I'd rather be
With Him there is no lack.

GREY

Published 02/04/2012 - 3:57 a.m. CST

When things are cloudy, grey and grim
The sunlight gone away
And everything is just hard work
You do not want to play
Remember that you're not alone
He went there once, you know
He understands each painful step
And through it all, we grow.

BOOK

Published 02/01/2012 - 8:38 a.m. CST

Don't judge a book by it's cover
The pages are all worn
Many years of constant toil
Have left them thin and torn
It gives a good appearance
Belying what's inside
Perhaps you call it death to self
As God dissolves our pride.

FACET

Published 01/26/2012 - 10:33 p.m. CST

The facets of your past remain
In caverns underground
Lying idly, gathering dust
They do not make a sound
Until the day that one escapes
And floats up to the top
Reminding you of sinful past
It's power you can't stop.

DEEP

Published 01/21/2012 - 4:13 a.m. CST

Deep in the depths of darkness
Lie subjects from the past
That still control the way we feel
In ways that are so vast
Manipulated by the one
Who wants us to stay still
As soon as we move forward
He leaps in for the kill.

HEAT AND SHADE

Published 01/15/2012 - 2:43 a.m. CST

It's very hot, it's stifling
And I feel so oppressed
The world is burning round me
I'm feeling overdressed
So I retreat into the shade
Where coolness welcomes me
In peace and calm where I can sit
Is where I want to be.

FREE

Published 01/08/2012 - 2:46 a.m. CST

In Jesus name I've been set free
My chains have been removed
He's been working twenty years
To get His child improved
Though there's plenty more to do
I know he won't stand still
He wants me back as I once was
My void He wants to fill.

CROSSROAD

Published 01/02/2012 - 3:00 a.m. CST

You have the chance to stop and sit,
And take stock of your life,
To wonder why the path you walk,
Is leading you to strife,
Are you walking with The Lord,
Perhaps you think you are,
Or taking on your life yourself,
You won't get very far.

HELLO GOD

Published 12/27/2011 - 1:55 p.m. CST

Hello God,it's me again

I've learnt another way

To come into Your courts of praise

Each and every day

SLEEPWALKER

Published 01/30/2012 - 9:50 a.m. CST

I watch you sleeping in your walk
When are you going to wake
You cannot be serious
Oh how long will it take
For you to see that I have plans
That you must take on board
Time is running out, My child
Please listen to your Lord

GOT

Published 01/23/2012 - 10:43 p.m. CST

Got is the attitude of haste
A sure foundation of needless waste
I've got to have it yesterday
It's something new, I'll gladly pay
Whether I have the cash or not
My plastic card will stem the rot

SORE

Published 01/17/2012 - 10:40 p.m. CST

Your eyes are sore, oh how they ache
From looking for the truth
There must be more to life than this
But still you stand aloof
Following the worlds demands
You fit in with it's ways
Heading for that unknown fate
You're numbering your days.

HEAVY

Published 01/11/2012 - 11:54 a.m. CST

We must be rather heavy
When to self we die
It must take a superman
To carry you and I
A very clever doctor
Who can raise us from the dead
Filling us with life anew
That's clean and pure instead.

DEAREST JESUS

Published 01/05/2012 - 9:22 a.m. CST

Dearest Jesus, faithful friend
Why am I holding back
From sinking deep into Your arms
I seem to have the knack
Of putting You right at the end
Of all the things I do
I’m sorry that I’m hurting One
Who is a friend so true.

DESTINY

Published 12/30/2011 - 2:11 a.m. CST

You are my destiny
You are my meant to be
You are the great I AM
To whom I give my life
You have all I desire
You are my constant fire
There’s nothing can replace
The everything You are.

HOW THE DEVIL

Published 12/24/2011 - 2:41 a.m. CST

How the devil are you
What are you on today
Will you rejoice in carnal things
Or walk the humble way
