Broken Gem, a lyric by Alan Ewing

BROKEN GEM

a lyric by Alan Ewing

I’ve been thinking it over

But I’ve not yet come to terms

My feelings are like a Supernova

I feel them turn and turn

You took a ride at my expense

And dropped the ticket in my lap

Then you say in your defence

That you read me like a map

Did you have to take it and break it

The gem that we had found

Now you’ll have to fake it and make it

The false love that will abound

Is it me who takes the blame

For what you can’t achieve

It could now never be the same

Because I am not so naive

So who is going to play the fool

Who’s going to provide the laughter

Who will smile and keep their cool

From this moment hereafter

Did you have to take it and break it

The gem that we had found

Now you’ll have to fake it and make it

The false love that will abound

I’ll take on new horizons

And make some new plans

It’s a new horse that I’m ridin'

A new beach with its sands

So keep looking over your shoulder

For what might be in reserve

You just got colder and colder

You really have a nerve

Did you have to take it and break it

The gem that we had found

Now you’ll have to fake it and make it

The false love that will abound

The Stone Rejected, a lyric by Alan Ewing

THE STONE REJECTED

a lyric by Alan Ewing

(with reference to Mark 12 1-11; Psalm 118:22)

Sorrows never will be drowned

No one will push you to the ground

Love will rise again I promise you that

We’ll never bow upon their mat

Time is the factor that heals the wounds

Evil has no victory it is doomed

So don’t give in to it’s ways

For The Good Lord shall have His Day

The stone rejected

Has now become a rock

Truly strong and majestic

They shall no longer mock

Sit and wait for the Omega factor

While working out the meaning of Alpha

Start the fight with spiritual prowl

For you know the time is now

Put your trust in God above

If they push then give a shove

Like Job persist all the way

Never allow your faith to sway

The stone rejected

Has now become a rock

Truly strong and majestic

They shall no longer mock

Take on your arm a shield

And to their toll you must not yield

Hold in your hand a sword

And in your soul obey Natural Law

It’s over it’s falling and that’s The Truth

No longer will they pervert the youth

In days of old The Prophets did see

That God’s People would be free

Guiding Light, a lyric by Alan Ewing

Guiding Light

a lyric by Alan Ewing

Looking for inspiration – day after day

In this world – clear thinking today

Seeking the spirit within - in mountain streams

Turning nightmares around into wonderful dreams

No icons for sure – you see what you get

That is The Way – that things are set

Feel Spirit’s influence – each and every day

We listen for Your Words – and all that they say

Born for all ages – in your rightful place

Saving us all – with such loving Grace

Life lived with Love – You taught The Way

Caring for others – listen to what they say

Guiding Light – there for all to see

Mid-State, a lyric by Alan Ewing

Mid -State

a lyric by Alan Ewing

Well, there she was

A knocking on my door

I couldn’t believe my eyes

As my ears hit the floor

She came from Mid-State

Lived on the west coast

She wore her hair straight

Champagne was her toast

Then she stepped into the room

Her presence would shake your boots

Rock n’ Roll all night long

Because music was in her roots

Well, you listen to her all night long

And your senses are all over the place

You really are stuck on her

‘Cause she moves with such grace

Wolf In Sheep's Clothing, a lyric by Alan Ewing

Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing

a lyric by Alan Ewing

Here you come in imitation of Jesus’ walk

Like a prophet from Hell with your lying talk

Your political lies reveal your true intentions

Sickly hypocrisy with the poor not mentioned

Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing

Consider all of the rot

Life of your own choosing

Within the devil’s lot

Vile nature pours out from your turgid soul

The triumph of evil lauded as your goal

Venomous hatred from your every pore

Gates of Hell open as you walk through the door

Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing

Consider all of the rot

Life of your own choosing

Within the devil’s lot

Your satanic presence leaves stench and rot

Spite, jealousy, maliciousness being your lot

Foul demonic rage is the fruit of your tree

The roots of evil are so evident to see

Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing

Consider all of the rot

Life of your own choosing

Within the devil’s lot

Entity, a lyric by Alan Ewing

Entity

a lyric by Alan Ewing

Deep within your heart

Comes the call of your Creator

Far within your soul

The essence of your Maker

Lonely in a troubled night

It is God who hears your call

Troubled at the approaching dawn

Such Entity shines a Light

The Kingdom is never far away

For it lives in you here and now

Heaven reveals its gateway

As in the seeds you plough

The search for an answer

Is here for you to see

All is revealed in time

When you just exist and be

Earth, a lyric by Alan Ewing

EARTH

by Alan Ewing

Is this the garden of Eden

In its fallen form?

So many troubles grown

So much is torn

The fall of Angels bespoken

Such an awful crime

To go against Almighty God

Such an awful time

Do we live this out now?

In our daily life

Cry out for the answers

In our daily strife

Are Angels inside of us?

As we fight the fight

Giving all that we have

With our daily might

Shall we walk to eternity?

Within our daily stroll

Wake up and then see

What exactly is the toll?
