Isaiah 43:10-11 Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. I, even I, am the Lord; and beside me there is no saviour.
Zechariah 2:6 Ho, ho, come forth, and flee from the land of the north, saith the Lord: for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the heaven, saith the Lord.

Johnny’s in the basement Mixing up the medicine I’m on the pavement Thinking about the government The man in a trench coat Badge out, laid off Says he’s got a bad cough Wants to get it paid off
Look out, kid It’s somethin’ you did God knows when But you’re doin’ it again You better duck down the alley way Lookin’ for a new friend A man in a coon-skin cap In a pig pen Wants eleven dollar bills You only got ten.
Maggie comes fleet foot Face full of black soot Talkin’ that the heat put Plants in the bed but The phone’s tapped anyway Maggie says that many say They must bust in early May Orders from the DA
Look out, kid Don’t matter what you did Walk on your tip toes Don’t tie no bows Better stay away from those That carry around a fire hose Keep a clean nose Watch the plainclothes You don’t need a weather man To know which way the wind blows.
Ah, get sick, get well Hang around an ink well Ring bell, hard to tell If anything is gonna sell Try hard, get barred Get back, write Braille Get jailed, jump bail Join the army, if you fail
Look out kid You’re gonna get hit By losers, cheaters Six-time users Hanging ’round the theaters Girl by the whirlpool is Lookin’ for a new fool Don’t follow leaders Watch the parkin’ meters.
Ah, get born, keep warm Short pants, romance, learn to dance Get dressed, get blessed Try to be a success Please her, please him, buy gifts Don’t steal, don’t lift Twenty years of schoolin’ And they put you on the day shift
Look out kid They keep it all hid Better jump down a manhole Light yourself a candle Don’t wear sandals Try to avoid the scandals Don’t wanna be a bum You better chew gum The pump don’t work ‘Cause the vandals took the handles.
1 Timothy 5:24-25Some men’s sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after. Likewise also the good works of some are manifest beforehand; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid.
Ezekiel 39:10 So that they shall take no wood out of the field, neither cut down any out of the forests; for they shall burn the weapons with fire: and they shall spoil those that spoiled them, and rob those that robbed them, saith the Lord God.
Hebrews 3:4 For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is God.

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK
Grandpa wore his suit to dinner
Nearly every day
No particular reason
He just dressed that way
Brown necktie and a matching vest
And both his wingtip shoes
He built a closet on our back porch
And put a penny in a burned-out fuse
Grandpa was a carpenter
He built houses stores and banks
Chain-smoked Camel cigarettes
And hammered nails in planks
He was level on the level
And shaved even every door
And voted for Eisenhower
‘Cause Lincoln won the war
Well, he used to sing me “Blood on the Saddle”
And rock me on his knee
And let me listen to the radio
Before we got TV
Well, he’d drive to church on Sunday
And he’d take me with him too
Stained glass in every window
Hearing aid in every pew
Grandpa was a carpenter
He built houses stores and banks
Chain-smoked Camel cigarettes
And hammered nails in planks
He was level on the level
And shaved even every door
And voted for Eisenhower
‘Cause Lincoln won the war
Now my grandma was a teacher
Went to school in Bowling Green
Traded in a milking cow
For a Singer sewing machine
Well, she called her husband “Mister”
And she walked real tall in pride
And used to buy me comic books
After Grandpa died
Grandpa was a carpenter
He built houses stores and banks
Chain-smoked Camel cigarettes
And hammered nails in planks
He was level on the level
And shaved even every door
And voted for Eisenhower
‘Cause Lincoln won the war
