About The Book
personal praise with a prophetic proclamation in the form of poetry.
Perhaps an interested and creative musician might be motivated to
compose music to accompany these lyrics. These poems cover a wide
range of social and personal life happenings, including Juneteenth,
protest marches, violence, and personal faith challenges.
He hopes that these poetic offerings will inspire the reader to find her
or his own poetic voice in the interest of uniting the two that belong
together—personal faith and social justice. The book concludes with a
the piece, written in poetry and prose, that he considered as a potential
title, The Grace of Something More.
Have you ever given thought to more balance in Christian praise music in terms of the spiritual and the social?

About the Author
Prophetic Poems of Praise
God Is On the Move
God is on the move
making crooked places straight unveiling words of truth
lifting bowed down heads.
God is on the move
let justice be our cry let peace be our prayer
let our minds and hearts agree.
God is on the move
tearing down walls of empire dismantling ancient building blocks of The System’s unholy power and opening paths to life and liberty.
God is on the move
let every church be bold to make every day count today the struggle; tomorrow the victor’s praise.”
Winds of Change
Winds of change are blowing
blowing across every nation rich or poor
poor in spirit are still blessed
blessed to be in the Kingdom of God.

Preface:
In the Book of Psalms (33:3, 40:3, 98:1, 144:9, 149:1), the Book of Isaiah (42:10), and the Book of Revelation (5:9) there are affirmations of “a new song.” Psalm 98:1 states why the summons is given to sing a new song: “for he has done marvelous things.” The call to sing a new song is not a perfunctory expression. The psalmist is sincerely inviting the community of faith to blend new experiences and insights with the familiar themes of Israel’s faith. God’s marvelous deeds reveal the changing face of divine grace. God’s grace is never static or stale. Each time persons of faith encounter a new experience of grace, there is, in truth, in the encounter, a summons to compose and sing of God’s ever-present and ever-fresh love and presence in the human story.
