Faith
The tender nurture of the Lord
does not mean child neglect,
does not mean solid science
is a sin we must reject.
The Lord inspires research
just as well as Bible-thumping.
I’d rather see a doctor
than a Holy Roller jumping.
Faith can move a mountain
but then so can TNT.
Angels may attend us,
let the doctors get the fee.
Oh Lord, protect the children
from our [...]
The Rich Young Man
The Saviour told the rich young man
to give up all his riches;
to empty out his bank account
and pockets of his britches.
That rich young man, he couldn’t see
the odds in such financing.
He sadly turned away and then
out with the world went dancing.
Oh Lord, my wealth is yours to have.
My faith is never-ending.
I’ll give you every last [...]
Short and Sweet
I won’t say the Chinese are
on age matters big liars
but when they get gold medals
they are used as pacifiers.
*********************
Tourists go abroad now
not seeing any sights
but for appendicitis
and grievous overbites.

Mitt Romney makes a nice VP
cuz Mormons always race
to win that all-important spot
they call the Second Place.

I read the New York Times today
and realized the news

Bon Bons
The toothbrush is a noble tool,
but not when it’s electric;
I will not put into my mouth
anything so hectic.
****************
I’m thankful for my daily bread,
but am not much a partisan
of expensive slices which
bakers lable ‘artisan’.
*************************
The Sabbath is a day of rest,
but only for the sinner.
The righteous sit all day in church;
the rest go out to dinner.
Salt of the earth
‘The salt of the earth’
no longer is praise;
since ’sodium-free’
is now the catch-phrase.
Confession
Confession is good for the soul;
on this I am perfectly clear.
So when I find fault in my friends,
I confess it to all that will hear!
Money and Preachers
I never met a preacher
who had money in the bank
who didn’t want a little more
for topping off his tank.
Money and religion
never mix and never should.
The rich may act quite holy
but their heart is made of wood.
Wealth is kinda funny,
everybody wants their share;
but it’s like old love and war
where everything is fair.
The world is ruled by [...]
Thus Saith Wombat
Faith in the Redeemer
I am truly loath to mock.
But I can’t stand the noise
that comes from so-called Christian Rock.
Praise the Lord in any way
the spirit may propose,
but you won’t mind, I hope, if I
decide to hold my nose.
Perhaps the Man from Galilee
appreciates the beat.
Me, I’m just a sinner,
but I think it’s tares in wheat.
In the [...]
