The blood that cleanses from all sin
Will never lose its pow’r.
It gives us access to God on high,
From “far off places” it brings [...]

“So Send I You”
So send I you to labor unrewarded,
To serve unpaid, unloved, unsought, unknown,
To bear rebuke, to suffer scorn and scoffing,
So send I you to toil for me alone.
So send I you – to loneliness and longing,
With heart a-hungering for the loved and known;
Forsaking home and kindred, friend and dear one,

He died that’s to be sure,
But arose to ever endure,
Thus saving the whole human race. – eab, 2/27/05

Now and then I see where prankster,

Locals know that “Main” is “Main,”
Not turning where miss-signed,
And the turned-street labels,
Make them to humor inclined.
But to the traveler on his journey
From his home to city far,
Doesn’t know the sign is wrong
And his day can fully [...]
