Thou Do Not See    Fear not my brother where thou shalt liveth, there’s ample room beneath the Son Our Makers thoughtful gift was giveth, to all of us not just "The One"   This place in which all brothers dwell, the spot I think to call my home Could be ‘bout any where we tell, our bodies to rest from whence we’d roam   The secret that my soul is hiding, truth to me sometimes revealed All place and action in God abiding, causes fear and pain be healed   I seek to find my hidden truth, as life’s meaning may elude I rest from earnest thought and sleuth, a sudden peace tries to intrude   When thought provokes my mind to still, it dawns on me no answers veiled The truth I seek with such strong will, tis there’s no question to be hailed   All answers seem to lie in waiting, for the seeker to awake To the simple truth creating, we 've known all for heavens sake.   God hides nothing from our faces, we’ve erected veils of stone Glories’ wondrous love and graces, to us all is easily shown   Beneath the Son the room I dwell in, has been fashioned in my mind The life of which all of us fell in,  as our own  eyes have left us blind   As you see all thee in grace, there is no truth that we must seek For all we know of time and space, shall be revealed when love we speak  John T.

Where are all the angels?   As a child I learned of Angels, but never really saw one I wondered if I ever would, for Angels must be fun   I grew up, and lived my life, wondering ‘bout them still And then one day I felt a call, to do our Fathers Will   Now surely on a mission trip some Angels would appear I looked up in the sky each day to see if some were near   But to my disappointment, all I saw up there was sun So I went about my business, so much work was to be done   We shoveled sand and gravel, and we hung some water pipe No one complained of anything, not a single little gripe   We brought some clothes and medicine, to people with great need We healed their wounds and gave them hope as we put aside our greed   We worked together as a team, with a never-ending task The poverty and pain we saw, we’ll surely never mask   As we traveled home one day, on our beat up old school bus I finally saw the Angels…. In the face of each of us   Angels do not float on clouds, or fly across the skies They ride on beat-up buses with sore backs and tear-filled eyes.   Angels have not wings of gold, or halo’s on their heads Just hammers, drills, and screwdrivers, and duffle bags of meds   So as you look for Angels, and wonder where they are Go take a ride… and help someone, the Angels ‘ in your car   Now if you seem to have some doubt that Angels could be real Look in the rear view mirror cause the Angels at the wheel   Angels are not separate, or apart from you and me They are the GRACE of GOD inside that we need to set free   For when you make a choice that you will do our Fathers Will The Angel that’s inside will make you better even still   If you’re ever at wits end, with troubles of your own Remember Angel’s work in teams; you’ll never be alone   Inspired by.

The Light of Truth     At first we knew the light was good as it shone upon our face We never thought this warmth we felt was filled with love and Grace   Bewildered blind and clumsily we sought the truth of being As we turned and faced away from light, we kept our souls from seeing   We thought “too bright this shining” we must not stare straight in The brilliance is more than I need know, as my life entwined with sin   As certain as the sunrise we see this light in all we find The inner glowing radiates from the soul of all mankind   The truth we seek is not outside but kept within the glow God is closer than we thought, closer than we’ll ever know   This light we share that blinds our eyes does not keep our souls apart It’s that we choose to look away, and ignore our aching heart   All souls seek to join together we’re drawn back to the light Our ego fights along the way condemning us to night   The truth is God is not outside but deep inside our knowing The God we search our lifetime for is the light that keeps on glowing   We look for God within the room of people filled with light Pretending we can’t find our source becomes our daily plight   But as the truth unfold we know our search will end at last We see that God is light, and truth, the future and the past   The God we look for earnestly resides as light within The very light inside us was our signal to begin   When we can see the face of God in the light from one another That is when our search will end realizing God is in our Brother   God is in us as well, in the trees and majestic mountains God is everywhere, all things, Gods Love flows like fountains   There is nothing that is not God, we searched and found each other There is only One you see The Father, Son, & Brother      John T.
