TITLE: Beat the HEAT! By Trisha Jackson 07/23/07 |

Beat the heat
(God speaks)
Beat the heat.
Is what I tell everyone.
Who seems to be having fun
Doing their will and not mine.
Only wasting time
Walking through many doors
I’ve never ordained
That inflict great pain
And leave many stains.
Beat the heat
That’s what I said.
Get this through your head.
You’re on a road that’s dead.
My heart aches and dreads
The outcome ahead.
Beat the heat!
I’m yelling and screaming!
You’re only dreaming!
Please stop believing
The lies he is gleaming!
Have you not heard,
He’s always scheming!
Beat the heat
Don’t you know that I love you
More than any other
Especially the accuser of the brother.
Who stands daringly before me
And constantly pleads
Asking me for your soul.
That devil’s very bold.
Beat the heat
I have a given my son
My only one
To cover your sin
To ensure that you win
The battle within
Again and again.
So, beat the heat.
Get on your feet.
You can defeat
The enemy
That has reserved
A front row seat
Prepared for those
Who love to live
Simply unreflective
Of me.
In a day like today
This what I pray
That you won’t fall prey
To the array of decay
And finally walk away
From that widen path
That leads you astray.
