MASSACRE

by Bill Kochman

02-20-2018

A shot was fired, the children all ran,
That is how the massacre began.
Some kid got a gun, it wasn’t too hard,
He picked off children, in the schoolyard.

No one knows why, he did what he did,
He popped pills, maybe he flipped his lid.
No more words, action is what we need,
Time to bring law enforcement up to speed.

Gun owners resist, they put up a fight,
But killing our kids is just not right.
No more excuses, no more mistakes,
Rein in this problem by whatever it takes.

MASS MEDIA MADNESS

by Bill Kochman

11-18-2016

One says one thing, someone else says another,
You really have to wonder, why we even bother.
Telling us the truth isn’t really their game,
Sharks in the water, just another pol to frame.

Everything is slanted, and nothing is straight,
They bend our minds, they tell us who to hate.
If you really want truth, don’t depend on rags,
They all have agendas, to get us in their bags,

We gotta break free, resist their media spell,
See through deception, don’t accept their sale.
But if you read God’s Word, things become clear,
It really is time now, that you give God an ear.

MASS MEDIA BIAS

by Bill Kochman

01-28-2017

The mass media is so biased,
Really makes me want to puke,
I need to clear my head now,
Guess I’ll just go read Luke.

At least he was so concerned,
More about the actual facts,
But not today’s mass media,
Who just want to grind an axe.

They all sling mud on anyone,
With whom they do not agree,
Their lack of fair reporting,
Is really one great tragedy.

MARY — a poem and song by Bill Kochman

MARY

by Bill Kochman

06-04-2019

There is only one Mediator,
Established between God and men,
Mary is not a co-redemptress,
She cannot take away our sin.

Although she was indeed blessed,
Above all women of the Earth,
She was by no means perfect,
But was marked by sin from birth.

Mary shed not her blood for us,
Nor did she rise from the dead,
Salvation is not hers for giving,
Jesus Christ alone is the Head.

So away with this false doctrine,
Don’t be deceived by the pope,
If you truly wish to be saved,
In Jesus place all of your hope.

MARRIAGE BASICS

by Bill Kochman

12-08-2016

No one ever said that marriage is easy,
It requires a lot of love and sacrifice,
But unless you cannot live without them,
Then refrain from marriage is my advice.

Apostle Paul offered his bit of wisdom,
Stay single if serving God you do yearn,
Yet if someone has a very active libido,
It is much better to marry than to burn.

A loving couple who serves God together,
Can sometimes result in what is the best,
But problems with selfishness & jealousy,
Can cause you to fail the marriage test.

MANOS A LA OBRA

by Bill Kochman

09-11-2014

Someday we shall surely take our rest,
But now is indeed not that day,
The Lord has given us a job to do,
Our first duty is His Will to obey.

There are so many things in this life,
Which strive to keep us from our task,
He gives us Grace to endure the test,
All we really have to do is ask.

Strength for the hour, faith for the day,
It is really such a simple equation,
Just keeping our eyes upon the Lord,
Will result in a grandiose occasion.

MAKE UP YOUR MIND

by Bill Kochman

01-11-2017

Are you a Jew or a true Christian,
You need to make up your mind,
Because the Hebrew Roots movement,
Has left you so spiritually blind.

You claim your faith is in Jesus,
But then you cling to Mosaic Law,
You are now under the New Covenant,
A Freedom Plan which God foresaw.

Righteousness is alone through Jesus,
Keeping mitvoth will wear you out,
It’s time to abandon your legalism,
And give that tricky Devil a rout.

MAKE THE YEARS COUNT

by Bill Kochman

12-12-2016

It seems that life has just started,
Then it’s suddenly already at an end,
We wonder where all our years went,
When did we go around the final bend?

That is the problem with we humans,
We don’t truly appreciate our time,
God grants us some number of years,
And then He rings our closing chime.

So rather than waste them foolishly,
Use them to glorify the Lord’s Name,
Stop doing things that don’t matter,
Because this life is not just a game.

MAGNANIMOUS

by Bill Kochman

11-21-2016

They claimed that it was impossible,
He could not possibly win the race,
Dems, pundits and even his own GOPs,
Were forced to back off in disgrace.

For despite an onslaught against him,
He proved them wrong at every turn,
Even though a few missteps he made,
In the end enough votes he did earn.

Now it’s the time to be magnanimous,
And stretch his hand across the isle,
Show himself to be the better man,
For national unity it is worthwhile.

MACHINE FROM HELL

by Bill Kochman

01-29-2018

I was going to log into my account,
Well, that is, if I only could,
I tried everything I could think of,
But, alas, my password was no good.

So then I called up some tech guy,
Explained what my problem was about,
Although he tried hard to help me,
That darn server just locked me out.

Minutes soon turned to half an hour,
As my poor ear got sore on the phone,
Though we troubleshooted for so long,
The problem still remained unknown.

I then realized I was getting sweaty,
And I probably even raised my voice,
I just wanted to get myself online,
But that server gave me no choice.

Soon after I suddenly began to notice,
A sharp pain was growing in my chest,
Slow down partner, just take it easy,
You are not ready for eternal rest.

Our lives online can be so much fun,
When everything is going really swell,
Just pray you never have a problem,
With one of those machines from hell!

LYING SPIRITS

by Bill Kochman

05-05-2013

Beware of lying spirits,
They are everywhere today,
Be careful, just don’t listen,
To a single word they say.

Putting bitter for sweetness,
And darkness for true light,
They deceive you and blind you,
And dim your spiritual sight.

Just like God’s own servants,
They smile and speak a word,
But if you discern closely,
It is just not of the Lord.

LOVER OF MY SOUL

by Bill Kochman

11-19-2017

I haven’t always been faithful,
Sometimes I have fallen down,
Life’s temptations are so many,
To keep us from Heavenly Crown.

But our God is so understanding,
He knows we are but mere dust,
Seeing us only with eyes of love,
His judgments are fair and just.

Tho sometimes I disappoint Him,
And don’t quite reach the goal,
I have this blessed assurance,
That He’s the lover of my soul.

LOVE GROWN COLD

by Bill Kochman

12-08-2016

Love God, and love your neighbor,
Can Bible basics be more clear?
Yet we seem to stray so far away,
Gets worse with each passing year.

We each live in our modern boxes,
Like sardines packed in a tin can,
But neighbors are strangers to us,
We don’t know every child and man.

Love for others has grown so cold,
Selfishness is the rule of the day,
If Jesus were to return tomorrow,
I can just imagine what He’d say.

LONG TONGUE

by Bill Kochman

12-14-2016

We will each be held accountable,
For every idle word that we speak,
So before wagging your long tongue,
Perhaps the Lord you ought to seek.

Because once you’ve started a fire,
It may be impossible to put it out,
Lives ruined, you lose your friends,
Of this, there should be no doubt.

Words will come back to haunt you,
You’ll be accused for what you said,
The situation may even get so bad,
You’ll even wish that you were dead.

LITTLE PEOPLE

by Bill Kochman

11-26-2016

Little is much if God is in it,
Don’t feel bad if you are small,
Folks filled with so much pride,
Are rarely used by Him at all.

God tends to use little people,
Not quite equipped for the task,
But if we want Holy Spirit power,
Well, we just have to simply ask.

That way God gets all the glory,
Which is really how it should be,
But don’t be the least surprised,
If He chooses little you and me.

LITTLE BOY

by Bill Kochman

01-14-2017

America dropped the first bomb,
And it seems that ever since,
It’s been just an uphill battle,
The rest of the world to convince.

She claims that it was justified,
That so many died in that flash,
There was nothing left to bury,
No, not so much as even ash.

Oh what wicked, vile weapons,
Are born in the hearts of men,
I can only hope and pray,
That they never do it again.

LIFE ON THE STREET

by Bill Kochman

08-23-2014

Life on the street isn’t fantastic,
As you foolishly thought it would be,
You sell yourself for food and money,
That is not what it means to be free.

You had everything that you needed,
With mom and dad back at your home,
But your rebellion made life so hard,
So on the street you’re forced to roam.

The Lord gave you so many blessings,
Why did you throw them all in His face?
Are thugs, drunks and addicts friendly,
As you look for a safe sleeping place?

LIFE INSURANCE POLICY

by Bill Kochman

12-15-2016

There are so many medical books,
Describing diseases known to man,
Yet despite our great knowledge,
For death we have no solid plan.

Sooner or later it takes us all,
So it is wise to know what’s next,
We can find a very clear answer,
It is written in the Biblical text.

There is a tome, the Book of Life,
It is like a life insurance policy,
If you wish to be found therein,
To accepting Jesus you must agree.

LIFE ELSEWHERE

by Bill Kochman

01-14-2017

It is not really blasphemous,
To believe in an alien race,
There is nothing in the Bible,
That excludes some other place.

The Bible was in fact written,
Just for dwellers of the Earth,
The Lord told us our own story,
Of how humans were given birth.

Perhaps He made life elsewhere,
Who may be as human as we are,
And maybe they live on a planet,
Whose Sun is just another star.
