Is Not There Fruit Upon the Land?

at the crossroads we sit
time for us to begin
a new way ahead
for what is there to dread?

do we lack in money?
are not the days still sunny?
Is Not There Fruit Upon the Land?
does not god still open his glad hand?

we need not fear
to lose what is most dear
for times will always change
and fate will always rearrange

Always Jumping in Our Lap

the page has turned
and we have learned
of a new chapter to come
an end to some

terror creeps in
an obnoxious friend
Always Jumping in Our Lap
leaving our hands full of sap

the days seem dark
and without a spark
of good news to be had
everywhere faces are sad
