 His Manuel
You exposed your heart with what you just said;
Our declarations are easily read;
Jesus said what we store abundantly,
will actually show for all to see.
It’s like giving a doctor total permission
to x-ray you without interruption;
Walking radiation that has it’s own mission
of complete and total destruction.
Well, I’ll just become the silent type;
No one will be able to see
all of the things that I really think,
stored up on the inside of me! 
That’s called ‘acting’; You’d better buy some tape;
Just like gas, you can anticipate
a spontaneous reaction from your heart to your mouth;
It’s another opening usually involved That’s
the way that it works; That’s the whole idea;
The term loosely used: running diarrhea.
Don’t you understand, your design is Devine
(thou, it’s good to not poison others);
What you’ve stored up will show,
Cancer always will
be seen, one way or another.
It doesn’t have to be that way;
Why don’t you start storing what God has to say?
The Manuel He left you, that is called, The Bible,
will instruct you, instead to start killing idols.
You’re smart enough to know this is true
(but on the outside chance that you’re not);
What has what you’ve stored up to date given you
but an occasional pleasure shot.
In-between times you’ve almost killed yourself,
to maintain your own endeavor;
You know this is true; The world system’s designed
to  work you, kill you and keep you blind.
Yet, you obediently go on trying to find
your own solutions by your own design.
As you’re caught in this loop, that’s now going faster,
with one designed purpose: Total Disaster!;
Have you noticed the pace of survival’s increased?
It’s harder now to get restful sleep.
Well, where do you think choosing drugs come from,
or new methods for some form of pleasure? 
Man’s trying so hard to cope in this life;
find self-worth that can somehow be measured.
I ask, Have your methods worked so far?
We both know the answer to this;
My suggestion: Get off spinning merry-go-rounds;
Centrifugal force does exist;
You can’t hold on longer; You’re not strong enough;
It’s plan: Spin you off; Leave you dead in it’s dust!
You weren’t designed to end up this way;
Your spirit wants to hear what He has to say;
You’ll have to decide; This is what He’s decreed;
Will you open His Manual and begin to read? 
If you don’t understand, then ask some questions
about the things that you’ve read;
You say you think that He is alive
but you treat Him as thou He is dead;
The only time you call on Him
is when you are scared or afraid;
How long do you think He will put up with this...
to bless your arrogant ways?
This is more than suggesting; This is a warning;
You say, I don’t serve a God of fear;
I have news for you; You don’t serve Him at all;
Your life shows that you just don’t hear.
Now, I’m not a promoter of majoring on fruit;
It’s only an indicator,
to expose to yourself (and it will to others);
Your fruit isn’t from your Creator.
Created, is one thing that’s evident;
Re-created, a totally ‘nother’ event;
You are here; I can see you;
You’ve been created;
Your parents gave you physical birth;
You are walking around, taking up space,
on this physical, tangible earth;
You’ll read in The Manual, if you pick it up;
Jesus says that He is the way;
He’s totally paid for every sin
from the past, right up thru today;
This is perfectly free; what He’s all about
and because this is real, there will be results.
So, this ‘re-creation’; this second birth
will be seen in a much greater way;
Because now, a direct power line of communication’s
been established to your Father each day.
With that kind of hook-up, there’ll be no doubt;
You will understand what you’re reading about.
The choice is still yours but your gratitude level
has now come into play;
You’ll not only want to hear what He’s saying,
You’ll want to do things His way.
It isn’t a matter of working to earn
a Love that is freely yours;
It’s wisdom that now is alive in you;
You have been completely ‘re’-formed.
All that He is and all that He has
is now your inheritance;
A son and an heir, in perfect standing
to win every circumstance...
that the world’s system has thrown your way;
So, let’s see what Father has to say
about forces coming against His son;
They’re not wise; They’re now messing with The Holy One.
Then, you can decide if you’ll ask your Father:
Please, to not enforce
the dangerous place they are standing in;
Let there be another recourse
and show to them the very same mercy
You so many times showed to me.
So that they can have this very same peace
and share in Our victory.
Because you’re a son, He will listen to you;
What you care about makes a difference
as He proudly watches this new heart of yours
delight to run interference.
