Everything to Me


Jesus is Everything to Me by Tedi Tuttle Wixom January 16, 2012

Jesus the Christ came as a baby in a manger
Roamed on earth as a wondering stranger.
The Bridegroom, my brother, the Bread of Life
The one who came to calm hate the strife.

Prince of Peace, Savior, and King
With his life, hope he doth bring.
Champion of children, the Holy one,
My guardian, example, God’s blessed Son.

Brother, Father, builder, and friend
Creator of Earth and worlds without end.
President, High Priest, neighbor, teacher
To the world simply a crazy upstart preacher.

Prophet, Maker, Mighty One, the Word
Timekeeper, gatekeeper, and humble shepherd.
Law Maker, Peace Maker, the Law, and the Light
Law Giver, Prayer giver, granting the blind sight.

Provider of sustenance, maintenance, architect.
Faithful, a doer, Satan’s plan he wrecked.
Healer, carpenter, builder, creator
Chief among the 12 Tribes and Mediator.

God of Israel and Savior of the World,
Fighter of Freedom with truth’s standard unfurled.
Sinless, ageless, and truth defender;
Angel and Saint, a great blessing sender.

Under appreciated while he lived on Earth
By his resurrection he gave mankind rebirth.
Let us praise his holy name every day
And serve only Him for he is the Way.

Let Earth Receive Her King


Let Earth Receive Her King by Tedi Wixom Jan. 13, 2012

The framers of the Constitution stand by
     Watchmen of America, their hands tied.
I wonder what they’d think today
     Of the words in their glory day thus penned.
Would they shake their heads in shame
     To witness their works torn asunder?

I pray a blessing on this planet
     In preparation for the reign of Christ
Dear Father swallow up all earthly curses.
     Send us faith in God, with hope in Christ,
And charity toward all men herein;
     May these attributes increase every day.

May a ripple of love emerge like an earthquake
     Rise and reverberate throughout this orb;
May this surge of hope and light go forth
     Through length and breadth of this entire Earth
And like a giant shockwave resonate
     ‘Til it reaches everyone in every clime!

Dear Father aid in healing our humble hearts;
     Break those with flint-like hearts and necks of steel
Replace them with forgiving souls who care;
     Gentle humanity ‘til ev’ry knee bend
And every tongue confess the truth they know
     Let the people of this Earth embrace their King!
