This poem has been inspired by something Shepherdsword said about the 'puppetmaster' in another thread this morning.

The Malefic Puppet Show
Come in - sit down in the front row
And welcome to my puppet show!
I'll dim the lights so you won't see
That I'm not who I seem to be -
That it's all a grand illusion
To create a mass delusion.

Oh, isn't it delectable
That they find me acceptable?
They think me and my fellow

(Gebasseer op 2 Timoteus 2)

Woordestryd
Die ou duiwel hou my besig
Om te stry oor elke ding
Ag, die tyd wat ek tog so mors
Wyl ek lof aan God kan bring.

Baie nuttelose woorde
Word daagliks gespreek; gepen -
Kan ek deur twis; opstandigheid
Een siel vir die Here wen?

Volgens twee Timoteus twee
Lei Woordestryd tot ondergang
Maar om die Heil’ge Woord van God
Reg te sny’s van groot belang.

Strong In You, Lord
I am not always able to
Do what I'm supposed to do,
But through Your Blood that set me free
And with Your Spirit guiding me
I won't give up but carry on
Until my time on Earth is done.

Be with me and guide my steps;
Help me to daily do my best.
Left to myself I'll surely fail
For I am very weak and frail;
In You alone can I be strong
And not do those things which are wrong.

Oh Enemy Mine!

Oh enemy mine just leave me be,
For I’m in Christ who set me free;
I’m not defenseless; on my own;
I now belong to Him alone.

I’ll fear no terror of the night
For I live in God’s holy light.
His banner over me is love;
He gives me good gifts from above.

He provides and He protects;

If I Could
If I could touch the silver stars
And free all creatures behind bars,
I'd sail upon the soft warm winds
And release captured living things.

If I could swim the roaring seas
And speak the language of the trees,
I'd teach all mankind to love more
And to repent from making war.

Though I can't do all these great things,
True hope to lost souls I can bring;
On eagles' wings I'll soar up high
And shout His
