SAMSON — a poem and song by Bill Kochman

SAMSON

by Bill Kochman

11-28-2017

A very long time ago in Israel,
There was a dude named Samson,
The girls were so gaga over him,
‘Cause he was strong & handsome.

Samson wed a woman of Timnath,
But she was one deceptive lass,
Thus, he later killed 1,000 men,
Just with the jawbone of an ass.

After judging Israel for 20 years,
Poor Samson’s fate finally came,
A beauty in the Valley of Sorek,
Delilah was that cute gal’s name.

So in love was he with that girl,
He told the secret of his strength,
Oh dear, what a terrible mistake,
They cut his long locks at length.

Weakened now & without the Lord,
The Philistines took out his eyes,
But as he ground in the prison house,
The Lord heard poor Samson’s cries.

Little by little his hair grew back,
And he became stronger day by day,
So that when Dagon’s feast arrived,
Thousands of Philistines he did slay.

SAGGY OLD PEOPLE

by Bill Kochman

11-26-2017

Oh you dear, dear, poor women,
How you must dread getting old,
Your fine breasts begin to sag,
Showing flesh you’re not so bold.

Then there are so many wrinkles,
They appear all over the place,
You apply piles & piles of makeup,
To try to hide them on your face.

And regarding all of you old men,
Your baldness puts eagles to shame,
That growing belly below your belt,
It is impossible for you to tame.

Yes, we are slowly falling apart,
We each begin to sag and creak,
It really makes one stop & wonder,
What will happen to us next week.

But such is the way of the flesh,
It only lasts for so many years,
Someday we’ll move on to New Life,
Without pain, suffering or tears.

SAFE HARBOR — a poem and song by Bill Kochman

SAFE HARBOR

by Bill Kochman

12-14-2016

In this life we all have battles,
Yet our Father protects us well,
For we are all bound for Heaven,
And most certainly not for Hell.

God’s protection does not mean,
Free of problems our life will be,
Yet despite all of Satan’s darts,
We will enter God’s Harbor safely.

So we should thank the Lord above,
For our situation could be worse,
Don’t forget to praise your King,
Or things may quickly turn adverse.

SADNESS — a poem and song by Bill Kochman

SADNESS

by Bill Kochman

05-03-2014

Sadness can be such a terribly lonely thing,
Robbing us of joy so we don’t want to sing.
Both energy and spirit are brought down low,
Satan takes advantage with a knock-down blow.

Sadness is a prison with bars raised up high,
We question and wonder and ask ourselves why.
Has God abandoned us, does He no longer care,
Are our sins so great, for us alone to bear?

Nay child, your prison is of your own making,
Jesus opens the door, frees you from aching.
He heals broken hearts, He opens eyes to see,
He restores your joy, and gives you victory.

SAD REALITY

by Bill Kochman

12-07-2016

Today the game is superficiality,
So many void of true spirituality.
Sad to see the state of morality,
Many are confused about sexuality.

Men becoming women in personality,
Women do it too, such abnormality.
Living in sin is their speciality,
God does not like this new reality.

Even the church has lost vitality,
Less concerned about its mortality.
Unless we each repent in totality,
Destruction comes, our eventuality.

SAD KING SAUL

by Bill Kochman

04-15-2014

God measures us not, by the color of our skin
Nor by our social status, He looks deep within.
Money fame and power, are the standards of men,
God wants obedience, going when He says when.

Yielding to His Will, is what God desires most,
Giving Him the glory, without a single boast.
Saul failed to do it, he went ahead of the Lord,
Thinking he knew better, ignored Samuel’s word.

In his foolish rebellion, King Saul lost it all,
Struck down in a battle, on his sword he did fall.
King David was wiser, a man after God’s own heart,
So from his house, the kingdom did not depart.

RUN WITHOUT SHAME

by Bill Kochman

12-06-2016

In this age of political correctness,
It can be difficult running our race,
At times when hecklers approach us,
We back down so we can save face.

But this kind of shameful behavior,
Is so very disappointing to the Lord,
He prefers that we just stand firmly,
And poke the enemy with our Sword.

Yes, we must still stay very humble,
But to Satan we must give no place,
So we must defend our faith boldly,
And ask God to bestow us His Grace.

RUN THE RACE WELL

by Bill Kochman

12-10-2016

We have all heard the story,
Of the tortoise and the hare,
The hare acted so confidently,
But just never made it there.

As for that wise, old tortoise,
He just patiently trod along,
And while he was a lot slower,
To him the victory did belong.

Running our long race of faith,
Is very similar to that tale,
It’s not really how fast we run,
Only that we run the race well.

RULE MAKER

by Bill Kochman

01-02-2017

We all age so differently,
No one is exactly the same,
Some folks die very early,
Yet others stay in the game.

A 90-year-old is so healthy,
While on a child death pulls,
It’s difficult to understand,
But God alone makes the rules.

But regardless of when we go,
One thing you need to hear,
Accept Jesus Christ today,
And death you’ll never fear.

ROYAL LAW

by Bill Kochman

12-15-2016

In this life in order to survive,
We are taught to push and shove,
That’s how you make it to the top,
There’s just no acting like a dove.

Never mind if other folks get hurt,
That’s the price they have to pay,
But let me tell you here and now,
You’ll be held accountable someday.

Our God has decreed a Golden Rule,
It is called the Royal Law of Love,
And if you refuse to obey it well,
You may never find your place above.

ROMANS 11:6

by Bill Kochman

12-07-2016

As the Apostle Paul explained,
By Grace or works we’re saved,
It’s clearly one or the other,
By which Salvation Way is paved.

Now if you trust in your works,
Then God’s Mercy you have waived,
You can try as hard as you like,
God will insist you misbehaved.

So be wise and accept the plan,
Which the Lord himself has faved,
Many souls have already found it,
Which is why the Angels raved.

ROCK STAR PREACHER

by Bill Kochman

12-13-2016

I want to have that abundant life,
Oh yeah, with a well-dressed wife.
And throw in the latest model car,
Make me a great preachin’ rock star.

That’s what all those hucksters say,
They preach that rot, take your pay.
Don’t be fooled or accept their word,
What they say is just really absurd.

That’s what the Devil wants for you,
You’ll forget God, when he’s through.
In the flesh, you will totally be,
Blinded by Satan, oh can’t you see?

ROCK PUNK FUNK AND JUNK

by Bill Kochman

08-04-2014

So Tom likes rock, and Pat likes punk,
Jane likes reggae, and Dick likes funk.
Sid likes rap, he says the rest is junk,
But if you ask me, it is all just bunk.

Nothing nice in it unless you’re drunk,
Can’t you see just how low you’ve sunk?
Music of the Spirit, is a better choice,
It’s more soothing, than all your noise.

Tunes to lift up, and not cast us down,
Devil’s music, just gives you a frown.
I’m sick of your noise and ungodly crap,
Please lay off, let me take my nap!

ROBOT POLITICS

by Bill Kochman

09-14-2014

I am just your little robot,
I do exactly as you command,
You say it’s time to go to war,
I agree your plan is grand.

You say some foreign leader,
Wants to bring our nation down,
I admire your great wisdom,
So blow up that dirty clown.

Well thanks for thinking for me,
You put my mind at so much ease,
If ever I should disappoint you,
You can just shut me down please.

ROAD TO HELL

by Bill Kochman

01-15-2017

The Devil was after you,
But you couldn’t even tell,
Friends tried to warn you,
You did not hear the bell.

Satan said “I’m a friend”,
You thot it was so swell,
He then lied yet again,
Said “You are such a pal.”

Blinded by all his tricks,
You bought his slick sell,
Oh it was a big mistake,
Your wisdom was a fail.

He enticed you to sin,
It was beyond the pale,
So it’s little wonder now,
You’re chained in a cell.

Down the hall others cry,
They shriek, moan & wail,
They were just like you,
Believed his evil tale.

You thot you were smart,
God’s Word you did bail,
But now just look at you,
Your sitting here in Hell.

ROAD OF FAITH

by Bill Kochman

12-02-2016

The road I have traveled,
Has been so very long,
Tho not always faithful,
By Grace I continue on.

There have been obstacles,
And detours along the way,
Lessons were learned there,
God said I could not stay.

So forward I march on now,
As long as I have breath,
May God be ever glorified,
Till the day I see my death.

RIVER JOURNEY

by Bill Kochman

08-01-2014

I don’t claim to have it all right,
And know I’ve got some of it wrong,
I strive to discover God’s truth,
As His Holy Spirit leads me along.

My quest is a lifelong journey,
There’s so many paths to explore,
I grasp a verse of the Scriptures,
But still wonder about five more.

God’s Word is such a deep wonder,
A great flowing river without end,
I sail along with such excitement,
To see what’s around the next bend.

RISE ABOVE IT ALL

by Bill Kochman

06-05-2018

It is a wonderful feeling,
To know God is in control,
While Satan tries to bury us,
And throw us in some hole.

So many are our battles,
Our afflictions are not few,
If it were not for Jesus,
We wouldn’t know what to do.

But the Lord is ever present,
With His help we stand tall,
Despite the Devil’s devices,
We can rise above it all.

RIGHTEOUS ROD

by Bill Kochman

12-07-2016

In this current day and age,
Some think it strange and odd,
That our Heavenly Father above,
Still may use His righteous rod.

You see, people on this Earth,
Have often become way too lax,
Punishing kids is way outdated,
We don’t dare touch their backs.

They also promote a God of love,
Not a wrathful one of years ago,
But if you rebel, be real sure,
God will definitely let you know.

RIGHTEOUS KINGDOM

by Bill Kochman

11-30-2016

The world is filled with so much division,
Rich live in luxury, poor can’t make it by,
It is time to embrace a brand new vision,
So everyone gets a fair piece of the pie.

But such plans go against our human nature,
Selfishness & greed are the rule of the day,
Corrupt laws are passed in the legislature,
Where the rich and powerful hold full sway.

But in God’s Kingdom things are much better,
Love reigns throughout that majestic land,
The Lord holds each citizen to the letter,
As He rules righteously with a strong hand.
