Poetry by Monique Nicole Fox

 

SO CALM DOWN!
No need to fuss or fight
or get yourself all uptight
cause God is like medicine
and will make you feel alright.
So calm down!

No need to consume yourself with grief
or rob yourself of sleep like a thief
cause God can lift your turmoil
and will give you heavenly relief.
So calm down!

No need to be sad, mope or frown
or let people bring your mood down
cause God's love everywhere
and the best inspiration in town.
So calm down!

No need to complain and think negative
or let depression cultivate and live
cause God has an abundance of light
and positivity to give.
So calm down!

No need to cheat, lie or steal
or commit suicide with an overdose of pills
cause God is the guidance you need
and can cure your life's sins and ills.
So calm down!

No need to dwell on what you haven't done
or races you haven't won
and unmapped goals
cause God has your life under control.
So calm down!

MASTER PEACE
Master I know you want peace
There should be peace
Your children here on earth are at war
doing violent things
which need to cease
My worries and concerns I put in your hands
They are in your lap; I henceforth release

Master of love and peace
show us light at the end of the tunnel
show us your wisdom, knowledge and expertise
help us through this time of tribulation please



WANT AD
God I want to place this want ad
Cause I don't want to live a life fearful and sad
I just want to be happy, cheerful, and glad

I want more peace and love
in this world
straight from Jesus Christ and God above

I want violence and war
to stop
all around the world both near and far

I want all of this Terrorist
stuff to halt and desist
And for God to conquer this evil in our midst

I want all to walk in the light of the Lord
Let there be a truce
Let there be accord

I want a life free to open my mail and free to fly
Help us oh God Almighty
Help us oh God up high

Trip Him Up!
Satan is at work
Through drinking and drugs
And dealers, gangs and thugs.
Trip him up!

Satan is at work
Through gossip and words unkind
And bigotry and hating of mankind.
Trip him up!

Satan is at work
Through adultery and mistresses
And heartache and distresses.
Trip him up!

Satan is at work
Through incest and pedophiles
And harming a precious child.
Trip him up!

Satan is at work
Through murder and rape
And people taken hostage with no escape.
Trip him up!

Satan is at work.
Trip him up!
And pick God up!
The world would be a better place.
Yes that's right! Yup!

I Am Lucky
I am lucky
God was by my side
As I drove my car
And went for a ride

I am lucky
God was in the passenger seat
During every mile and on every street

I am lucky
God was there
When I made an almost fatal mistake
For I am still alive
My life HE didn't take

I am lucky
And grateful it wasn't my time to go
And thankful so
For I am still here to
Watch my baby boy grow



EXERCISE TIME!
Lift up your prayer
To God who is here, there and everywhere

Lift up your soul
To God who makes our lives whole

Lift up your voice in song and praise
Look to God till your dying days

Lift up your supplication
To God with joy and elation

Lift up God's statutes and commandments
If you have been backsliding: repent

Lift up your heart
Live a righteous life, be good, and be smart

Lift up your head
And give thanks for your blessings and daily bread

Lift up your hands toward God's oracle
And don't let Satan and sin be an obstacle



LIFTING WEIGHTS
Come to God
all that are weary
and burdened with life's weights
let God lift you from dire straights

Come to God
all that are overwhelmed
and stressed
let God lift you from the entire mess

Come to God
all that are in need of guidance
and help
let God lift you out of that circumstance

Come to God
all that are confused
and in turmoil
let God lift you out of the muddy waters, filth and quick sands soil

Come to God
all that are run down
and tired
let God save you before you drown
You will find Him the best weight lifter in town



DIVINE DETERGENT
God purifies the mind, body and soul
God cleans, God cleanses
Like the detergent TIDE
Repent your sins you feel inside

God forgives and washes away our transgressions
God makes the dirt go away
God removes the stains
Like the detergent GAIN

God helps the wrinkles in our life
God makes them cuddle up fresh
Like SNUGGLE with color protection
Let God be you detergent; let God be your selection



FAB FRESH, GOD FRESH
Pour God's love, understanding, wisdom and forgiveness
on your stain or spot
Rub it into the fabric of your life
It doesn't matter whether the water is cold or hot
Just let God relieve your troubles, grief, and stress
Let God clean up whatever is a mess
Set the wash cycle on GOD not permanent press
Time to make fresh start
Peace and happiness be unto you and God bless
