1.
The will of He who reigns. No gods but Him. Revere His Name. Honor His Word. Call your Mom and dad. Do not Cain. Do not David. Tell the truth. Be content with what He gives. Yet we fail to obey. We revile to see who we really are, rotted through and through. Desperate, we repent and we beg. And He hears. He always hears.
2.
Blood created by the Father not intended to be shed. Sin would mar his good creation so that Blood must now be bled. Blow would grow inside the Virgin coming forth as David's Lord. His life favored by God and men his life also was abhorred. Lived a life apart from bloodshed so that he might be betrayed. Ripped apart and dripping with blood, He would die to be the Way. Blood restored outside a cold tomb, He would snap the neck of death. Ruling as the King of kings now He will reappear again. The Comforter makes us alive so that we trust His holy Blood. I believe.
3.
Redeemed instructed to pray. By the One at the right hand. We address Him as children, we acknowledge His heavenly throne. We ask that His name be hallowed. Beseech His kingdom to come, crushing the reign of the morbid prince. Thy will, not mine. He already knows what we need yet commands us to ask anyway. And our greatest need He provides in Blood. So we extend our own pardons as well. Shield us from temptation's snare. Guard us from the evil one. Listen to our feeble pleas. Whispers of the desperate. Priviledge to come to You. With the words our Master spoke. You always hear us loud and clear. Deafening whispered prayer from the lips of the redeemed.

Soaked 04:06
Salvation through blessed holy simple means. Water applied in the name of Trinity. Commanded by the Lamb who had once been slain. Drenched in the grace of God. The old are washed clean. The newborn are welcome. All nations it means all peoples. Giving what it requires: faith in the Lion of the Judah's tribe. The baptized babble praise. And they sing as well. Such a simplicity soaked in salvation. Blessed means of grace. Sacrament of new birth. Monergistic gift. Welcome to the kingdom. Embrace your new life. Take His Cross upon you. Be washed clean of sin. Live redeemed forgiven. Through these waters of life, infused with the Word, enter paradise lost, be part of the fold.

Quiet Scream 04:08
Keys bestowed to unfetter the desperate while, binding the impenitent in Jesus' Name. Sorrowing for sinfulness which has no merit. Like an undeserving publican in anguish. Pardoned immediately in the Lamb's Name. Go in peace until you must return. Again. Then again. And again. Unworthy servants held in undeserved esteem uttering His words. Absolution through fellow sinner's lips. pardoned by the one who does the pardoning. Our apology is hardly worthily. Like the whispering from stammering lips. Yet desperate we scream. If we claim to have no sin no truth is in us. But if we confess our sin he will forgive. Everytime we falter in our valley death march. He is there to lead us back to Him again. Bruised reeds, wicks smoking, He longs for them all. Pardon in His Bloodshed. Gospel words of grace, spoken in His stead, Be restored to Me.
6.
Trudging through the wicked valley to the day of our death we rely on the meal of God to sustain. Bread, wine, true Body Blood. Elements are paired with the words of the Lamb who would soon be slain. He gives of His slain Body. And with himself, pardon of sin. His nourished redeemed go in the fallen world to serve. And we return for feeding as He bids us to do. He sets the table through such, such feeble hands and joins, his tattered flock unworthy for His redemptive feast. This meal sustains the dying, the dying and redeemed. So we partake of this feast. Until we die in Him. Death support. Meeting Him. Death support. Until we meet Him. Take and eat...take and drink.
