Open Letter To Osama If there had never been a death Or casualty by your mean hand Would life have meant as much to you Which slips away like hourglass sand? What purpose do you fathom, Is faith a heartless rage Against the foes you love to hate, The guardians of the age? How clever your reduction Of human life to senseless death Your mind control is absolute Your victims stifling their own breath. And your angelic master Whose face was seen in murder's smoke How deep the bitter irony Religion was his master stroke. Now death will stalk you also While still you boast of more. Perhaps The only love you know Is love of death, the scoreless draw. © Greg Annett, 11th October 2001 Flood In latter days as Noah's time The rain will fall in drops sublime To soak the earth, the world of man As only God the Spirit can. As levels rise and people swim We have the choice to follow Him Before the end He'll close the door And those in Christ the Ark will soar. So will you turn or will you drown? Revival moves from town to town When love comes knocking at your door How will you answer the Spirit's roar? The waves will thunder, the tides will churn There's no surrender, no return Some will fight and some will run The waters will rise on everyone. Greg Annett © September 2000 "Truth" What is truth? was Pilate's question Such as he could not explain Even now we strive to conquer Depths of ignorance,disdain. Source of truth and source of pleasure Wisdom's grasp is Christ's decree Suffer all the little children Such as these belong to me How we know that He is righteous This we know, that He is true Little knowing but His presence Settling like evening's dew Knowing that our time is precious Coming quickly to an end Seeking for a sudden answer Searching for a common friend Truth our answer, truth the question Truth our mission, truth the goal Truth the only true objective Of the truest human soul.
