"Foundations in Measure"

God exists with distinct beings of three.
We are accountable in what we choose.
Christ redeems those who repent and change views
To work first steps of Gospel on bent knee.

Called to serve through proper authority.
Like ancient church a structure to abide,
Enhanced by spiritual gifts as guide.
All scripture reveals truth for clarity.

Israel gathers for Christ to reign on ground.
With a right to worship God we can pick.
Obey laws with civil order, no trick. 
Be honest, kind, and amend all around.

These teachings frame the life we choose to live.
They shape our purpose and guide what we give.

 "Ministry Beyond Mortality"

A time awaits when it will be fulfilled.
Veterans of faith's battle with worthy scars.
Souls refined by fire, across all the stars.
Faith confirmed by countless others was thrilled.

They wait confirmation of a release,
A need for words, your remission has come.
A brutal war is over, and then some.
A reunion to happen will bring peace.

Son of God comes, the work laid out.
A charge to go forth and carry the light,
To spirits in darkness, with all their might.
Beyond the grave, Gospel's now brought about.

The bands of death dissolve in gospel flame,
All hearts who seek may hear the Savior's name.
