1. Put your music player on shuffle
2. The first lines of twenty songs = a poem; the first line of the twenty-first song is the title
The Kingdom is Ransacked
If you go lookin' for hot water
When I saw you in the garden of Gethsemane,
You wanted a challenge, it's calling you higher.
I lit a thin green candle.
Well they were given the grapes that go ripe in the sun that loosen the screws at the back of the tongue,
If it be your will.
Starshine, never gonna find me,
You can reach, but you can't grab it.
Where's your head at?
It's a decision that was made between you and me.
Now I will tell you what I've done for you:
I'll take the position, assume the missionary part.
Your heart is not open so I must go.
Six o'clock in the morning;
I can't say that I love Jesus,
Never knew I could feel like this.
Set me free;
The heart is a bloom,
It's coming up, it's dare.
Tonight I felt stronger inside of your ways.
Seems a religious theme got in there somehow!
