When I Take My First Step
Caleb John Feb 2018
I stepped out of what seemed like a dream

A life time of things past that have no meaning

As I stand here in a timeless gaze

Standing in awe through a haze

I stare at that timeless face

Angels sing

Trumpets blow

A city of gold stands behind him

People run to me

To welcome me home

But it all seems like a blur

As I feel the beautiful presence

The aroma of love

That seeps through the aura of his presence

He steps forward

His arms stretched out


And gives me a hug

And says

Welcome home my son
My depiction of Heaven
Caleb John Feb 2018
Every day I walk through an ocean
It looks so beautiful
But that's before you see the dangers
The sharks look so peaceful
Before a fish swims by
Then it rips it apart

Every day I walk through a pretty school with whitewashed walls
Fulls of guys and girls
Have nothing left to lose
The girls want love
So they give the guys what they want
The guys are like an ox going to the slaughter
They don't know their doom is immanent
It tastes so sweet but it burns so deep
Those halls are full of seduction
Which will lead to destruction

Just Another Animal
Caleb John Oct 2018
Just another animal

Is what teachers and classmates say

Man is just another animal

No wonder suicide rates are skyrocketing

We have it ingrained in our minds

That there's no difference in our kinds

Our lives have no more importance than a fruit fly

But don't worry if my teaching got to you

Remember that there's a suicide prevention hotline you can cry too

And once the pills and therapy makes it so you're not quite suicidal

You're good too go

Your oil and water are fine

So go back to your life

Be a good clone and be like everyone else

Climb the financial cliff

Don't worry about your family

You can't afford to spend the time with them

Just keep making that money

Live for yourself

Make the money

Get that mansion

Get that Ferrari

And when your old and regret forgetting your family

Just remember you've got your stuff to comfort you

Take to the Stars
Caleb John Jan 2018
I was so lost in my own world
When I lost my balance
And ran out of talents
I noticed the world zooming away
As I swept past the stars
Into a new place that was above par
I felt the warm sensation
Of the gravity fixation
I saw new worlds beyond the stars
I came to a place beyond all time and space
I saw everything in unison like a clock chime
I flew threw the sun
And saw what was done before it began
Colors flew bye as I ran
Then I closed my eyes as I felt the thrill of running through this strange dimension
Then I opened my eyes
Turned over and got out of bed
And realized that my mind didn't see the impossible
My imagination could just predict the future that is possible
When man finally completes the impossible and
Takes to the stars

Fire
Caleb John Sep 2018
Why do we as humans do this

We struggle with desires and pain

Yet we keep coming back for more

More burns more bruises

We walk straight into the fire that first destroyed us

It's like we don't know any better then to walk through the pain we wanted to leave behind

Why do we keep walking in circles

I hate circles

I just want to walk a line

Jesus gave us to walk in freedom

The fire keeps coming after us

But Jesus uses the fire to forge us

And he provides water to put out the fire

Waves
Caleb John Jan 2018
We float gently across the waters
We are individuals yet we make up an ocean
Sometimes we crash and were violent
Because our life at times is peaceful
Then it's rolled up into a tube and turned into the surf
We fail to see the big picture
That we are just a wave in an ocean of waves

Men of Courage
Caleb John Feb 2018
What ever happened
To the design called family
I was raised to see that
Every family
Desperately needs a father
A protector
A husband
Yet I see so many fatherless homes
So many kids grow up hating their father
Then they become them
They abandon their family
They become the man they hated
So where are the men of courage
Who will take their responsibilities
Who provide for their families
Who will protect their families
Who will lead their families
Who will honor, respect and love their wives
Who hold their family as second priority only to God
Where are the men of courage?

I Came

Don't have Time
Caleb John Mar 2020
I don't got time for these poisonous thoughts

I'm not gonna sit here looking at all I could've bought

There's lives on the line

I don't have time to smell the pines

Why do I keep wasting my time  on everything that I know is evil

You see my mind, you know just what you could reveal

The darkness tries so hard to conceal

I'm so sick of this sinful meal

Oh God, please change this heart

My sin is just ripping it apart

Call to Arms
Caleb John Mar 2019
Why are so many of us so unstable

Willing to be anything that will get us accepted in modern society

But we weren't called to be a part of the world

We were called to love it

We were called to stand for what's right

We were called to speak out against legalized ****** of millions of young babies

We were called to stand up for what's right

We were called to be honorable in our actions

We were called to be soldiers who take up arms to stand with our king

We were called to fight till our last breath

If the world hates you

Will you join it?

Or do what's right?

The Modern World
Caleb John Jan 2018
All we can think about is politics now
It's all about blacks vs. whites
Women vs. Men
God created different roles for men and women
That doesn't mean women are less then men
This world grieves my heart
Feminists hate the fact that they need the fathers permission
Before they **** their child
Abortion is a monster
Fewer things make me madder
Or sadder
The Bible says that God's law is written on the hearts of all people
We know abortion is wrong
We just don't want the responsibility of our actions
God created one human race
Not blacks and whites
Not whites and blacks
So why can't we live and treat each other with love and respect

Locked In a Cell
Caleb John Mar 2019
A society of suicide is what we live in

People locked in their own minds

Thinking about their own problems

We isolate our selves

And promote our own agendas

Yet the only way we can stand together

Is if we burn away the barriers

Stop living for ourselves

Give up who you think you are

Accept who you are in Christ's name

Let Jesus burn down your walls

He stormed the gates of Hell for you

So why are you still locked in your cell

The Life We Were Promised
Caleb John Jan 2018
So many followers of Christ wonder why hardships happen to them
Here's the answer
We weren't promised an easy life full of ease and luxury
We were promised a life of hardships
A life of persecution and struggles
But that wasn't all we were promised
We were promised a life of satisfaction
A life of joy
A life worth living
We were promised that we would be led through every struggle
Every pain
Every hardship
Every strife
Every hurt
Every bout of depression
Every bout of anxiety
Every struggle
Has a solution
Has a way out
Has a hope
Has a reason
So bring it on
My God will lead me out
My God will lead me through

Live for the Ocean
Caleb John Sep 2018
We barely spend any time on this planet

A life time can go by in a blink of an eye

A human life is look when you cup your hands

And scoop a handful of water from the ocean

Slowly the water drains through the fingers of time

And soon that life is no more

Some people live for that scoop of time

But followers of Christ live for the ocean of eternity

Which will you live for?

To Do What's Right
Caleb John Feb 2020
It's always a fight

To keep it in sight

Some think it's like flying a kite

But really it's costs a lot of sleepless nights

I bet you never thought you'd suffer a bite

Or get snuffed out like a light

For simply trying to do what's right

Warhead
Caleb John Jul 2018
There's a bomb headed in this direction

The explosion will be bigger and more terrifying then anything this world has ever seen

This warhead will hit and destroy the world

Everyone has a way of escape

All you have to do is give up your fight against the God who loves you

He will save you

He wants to save you

The only way he can save you is if you accept his salvation

Don't be victim of your own sin

You see your sin created the warhead

You have doomed yourself

But Jesus can save you from your own doom

He loves you

He died for you so you don't have to

Give up your false gods

They won't satisfy

They're not enough

The lonely pillar
Caleb John Feb 2020
Standing strong

Standing alone

Some walk by it and marvel

Some look at it's cracks and point out it's rips and flaws

But none the less it stands

To uphold what is true

What is right

Too many think about the strength of the lone pillar

Few aspire to it's strength
Caleb John Jul 2018
There's a God who loves you who will carry you on his back

Jesus Died and fought for you

The devil wants you dead

If anything fight because he will win

I may not know your pain

But you have a life to live

If you read this and turn up dead

Others won't know how to live with the pain

Jesus loves you

You may not feel it

Why do we act on feeling on instinct

When at the end of the tunnel there is a God who gave everything for you

Call on the Holy spirit

Call on the name of Christ and you can beat this depression

If you believe in him He will fight for you

Give up fighting him

Don't pull the trigger

Championship
Caleb John Apr 2020
A couple thousand skirmishes

Till the last finish

Satan thought he had him

Turns out he got torn limb from limb

The Christ overcame

Yet so many are quick to pass the blame

What a stupid game

The God incarnate came to save us

When we were just putting up a fuss

Posterity
Caleb John Nov 2019
What will they see in this generation?

Will they see us as a generation who cared for life?

Or will they see us as a generation of people who murdered little children because they weren't convenient.

Who will they see?

Me
Caleb John Feb 2018
Me
I call out arguments
I stand for whats right
I cling to my God in the middle of the storms
Sometimes I lose my grip
I love people
Because he gave me the love
I see the lies of hypocrites
My God has shown me his grace and his wonders
He disciplines me with his very wonders
He uses me to be a voice crying out in the desert
He feeds when I am hungry
My God gave me the job of Jeremiah
I love my God
Yet while reading this you may think I have a big ego
Or I'm arrogant
I tell you this because
Out of all of this
Out of all the wonders I've seen
I'm no better than the very ones who scorn me
I've been the hypocrite
I've been the liar
I am the chief of sinners
As for the things Jesus gave me to do
That wasn't me
The only thing I ever did was make one simple choice
I made the choice to follow Jesus
He did the rest
So one day someone may ask me my story
I will look them in the eye
And say
Why ask for my story
When you can ask for his
Why ask about me
When you can ask about Jesus
To tell you about me
Is to tell you of him who made me me
I gave my life to him
And he made me new
So don't ask about me
Ask me about him
Or even better
Ask him

A time for love a time

A time for sorrow

A time for forgiveness

A time for joy

Bullets in your back don't heal like jack

We can still choose to love

Not just the one who shares your heart

Friends

Family

Brothers

Sisters

They are all part of your love

Waste of Youth
Caleb John Sep 2019
Just chasing highs

Spending time until the clock ticks by

We just keep chasing pleasures and treasures

None of it matters

When will America stop wasting their youth on drugs and ***

When will we learn to study the words of wisdom

To remember the precepts of old

Of honor

Respect

Strength

Passion

Yet lawful

Selfless

Protective

Productive

An end to this useless taste

Men of God

Where are they?

Where are the men who stand to protect their families?

Where are the men who pray with savage determination?

Where are the men who lead with a kind spirit?

Where are the men who truly love their wives?

Where are the men who respect their wives and see them as their one and only?

Where are the men who would lay down their life for their family?

Where are the men who discipline their children out of love?

Where are the men who teach their sons how to fight the right way?

Where are the men who teach their sons to be men that treat others with kindness and respect?

Where are the men that teach their sons to respect authority and treat women with honor and respect?

Where are the men who teach their daughters that they are precious and are dearly and wonderfully loved?

Where are the men who teach their daughters that they have more worth than a toy that brings a boy pleasure?

Where are the Men of God?

Victory
Caleb John Feb 2018
Day after day
Night after night
I go on fighting for Christ
I go through the debates
The arguments
Trying to prove his existence
I don't know why I try when he'll already did
America knows the name of Jesus
They've heard the Gospel message
So why do I keep fighting
When he already won
I keep fighting because of love
I love the people of this world
I don't want them to fall to Satan
Instead I want them to jump to Christ
The world keeps telling me all the logistics
All the scientific facts
But even though their facts are false
They don't show the whole comparison
Over an argument
To win a stupid argument
That may not matter in the next 30 minutes
Why does this world keep stalling
When my God gave up the brawl
And slammed sin straight through the wall
If I'm wrong then my life will still have the same meaning as yours
But if your wrong then your going to regret it for eternity
My God has already won
And when he comes back every knee will bow
Every tongue will confess
That Jesus is God
All odds have come against him
And everything that came against him
Fell at his feet
The laws of death lie there broken
My sin lie's there
The sins of the world lie there
He has already won
So back down now
Give up your soul
And

Be

Embraced

By

Love

When I Ruled the World
Caleb John Jun 2018
I had it all
The fancy car
The mansion
The late nights with pretty girls
When my voice hit the mic the world worshiped me
Crowds sang with me
I had all the money in the world
I went everywhere
Did everything
I did as I pleased
I was only told what I wanted to hear
I had the crowds
I was in the magazines
My name was known all over the world
I built the greatest economic empire in history
The sun never set on my empire
I had all I ever wanted
Yet it never satisfied
I ruled the world
Yet I still craved more
I needed more
And then one day you saw my name on a magazine
And all you thought was
Another star that committed suicide
What a waste
The perspective of a rock star that had the world in his hands

Tree of Glory

A symbol of hope

But there's no rope

How are you gonna climb this tree

Even when the tree has been climbed

The glory is not mine

It is thine.

Endure
Caleb John May 2018
What's the point?
To endure a consequence?
Where is the glory?
Where is the honor?
What do I have to boast of?
Every fire
Every pain
Every rage
Every stab
Was my fault
What was the point
Of trading water for sand
I found the point
I crucified my savior
And threw his grace to the wind
Then he crushed my pride and broke my hide
Yet my heart builds it back
Why won't this heart of stone crack?
Sometimes I think about the night
I considered putting a knife in my chest
Why did you save me?
When you picked me up and gave me life
You called me to do something so big
When I'm so small?

Directions
Caleb John Oct 2018
When I'm lost and confused

And I'm just tired of being abused

By this world

It leaves me breathless without a word

I will look to you

But when I miss your cue

And keep taking a beating

I'll break through my mind

Some may call it cheating

But you gave me a free will

I may not know your will

But I know what in my heart I need you to ****

Sometimes I need direction

For reproof and correction

But when I can't hear which direction I need to go

I will make my best decision that I know

If I make the wrong decision

Push me to the right one

I Left you in the Dust
Caleb John Feb 2019
You tried to weigh me down

You tried to take my crown

Tried to be the only sound

You thought I was something you could pound

Then I realized the power of a single cry

When I asked why?

A new breath filled my lungs

A new spirit took a hold of me

Then this body, filled strength

Out ran a cage

By the power of Grace

By the power of God

I leave you in the dust

I enjoy my freedom

I enjoy life

I have joy

So stay in the dust

But through it all

I know you may only see us as friends

But to me you are my brother

So keep on fighting

You can count on me to lend you my hand

When you struggle cry out to your God

And wait with patience

Never forsake the Lord your God

He will never fail you

I know you may not always be able to see him

It's so dark down here

But he's here

Call his name and he will answer

The Battle Cry of Love
Caleb John Jan 2018
Every day I get up and go to school
I'm called crazy
Stupid for believing in something I can't see
But how can I remain silent
How can I not tell them about the hope that is in me
So many hopeless roads that they are running down at top speed
Every day I get up and walk into battle
On the inside I just want to scream the result of their futility
But I guess some just have to learn the hard way
I'm surrounded by kids who want the answers to life
They want to know their purpose
The answer is Jesus Christ
Jesus gave the answer to life
He fights for them even now in their denial
I can't help but to look on them with love
The love of Jesus
This is our battle cry
Of Love

This World
Caleb John Feb 2018
My heart breaks for this world
All the stabs and all the lies make me want to curl
To curl up into a ball and pretend this filth doesn't exist
But no matter how hard I try
Or how many tears I cry
This world still remains
All around
All I see is are kids dying
If not on the outside
Then on the inside
School shootings and car crash's
Suicides and murders
And all we can think are oh I hope they caught the killer
Or this is a tragedy now lets try to get past it
But while everyone tries to get past it
No one stops to think about how to go through it
It's all about you now take care of you
Do good and school and climb the ladder
But the higher you climb the farther you fall
It's all about the money, the fame and the girls
Whatever happened to the value of family first
Family comes before money and fame
And the girls are just fly buys that you rob in your past times
My heart breaks for this world
Because no one ever thinks to stop and hit the breaks
Because they want the first shot at this world going full speed
Why do so many people trade their lives to this world
This world means nothing in the end
It's just a ticking clock
What happens when the time runs out
You gave your soul to the world
You never took the time to listen to that preacher when you were a kid
You were just ready to make the highest bid
So what happens that one day when you stand before Jesus
And you will see him face to face
And unless you turn from your ways your going to see the face
You didn't want to see
As judgement comes you start to panic
And start looking for the rewind button
But all you can do as beg and plead
But you had your chance and you traded it for a tin glance
When the gavel comes down you'll find yourself
In a place of anguish
Absolute pain
Absolute misery
Unless you accept Christ as your savior
You wont find yourself in this world
You will find yourself
In a terrible place
Called Hell

Walking By Faith
Caleb John Aug 2018
It's so easy for me

To sit down at this screen and talk about faith

To talk about doing great things

Believing that God can do anything

But sometimes it's not easy for me to believe

When I don't hear the voice of God I can get sad

I might feel like I've done something wrong

Or when I lose a loved one

I may not feel joy

But it's at these times I have to cling to faith

In the hard times I have to still believe

I know God will remain faithful even when it's hard

But I can't give up on the God who won me

And neither can anyone

We have to remain faithful to him because he is always faithful

HeadStrong
Caleb John Sep 2018
Keep walking with your head raised high

You think your worlds about to end because you were burned therefore thought you would die

Little did you know that these fires and storms

Were just the beginning so you began to conform

Your head began to bow beneath the beatings anger and rage of the devil

Yet you cried out to the God who you thought loved you enough to make these storms level

But what you don't understand is that it takes fire to purify gold

Don't bow your head

Don't give the game away

Don't give Satan the satisfaction he's trying to beat out of you

Look him straight in the eyes

Break the ties

Face him head on

But don't be stupid and think that you can win on your own strength

Cause if you do your vision will be lucid

God gave you the power to overcome mountains

You may not see Him working but I can tell you He's there

So don't give up without a care

Keep your head up and keep moving forward

You thought you were beat but little did you know you had Jesus on your side

In him love abides

Don't discredit his power

For He is God

And He is in you if you receive him
Jeremiah 29:11 - For I know the plans I have for you, "declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Strange

Too serious

Too committed

Bigots

Fundamentalist

Old fashioned

These are some of the names that I receive

For what?

For speaking the truth?

If standing by Biblical principles gets me killed then it will have been worth it

I cannot remain silent

If I don't speak out to billions running straight into Hell then their sin is on my head!

If I don't warn them then I appease men

I must appease God

I cannot remain silent

Homosexuality

Adultery

Lying

Stealing

Gluttony

Hate
­
These things are what takes most people away from the truth

Some hate change

Some hate conviction

But I must tell the world

These false gods cannot satisfy

They cannot save

Only by the love and grace of Christ can one be saved

So I must hold by these principles that I hold true

I cannot remain silent

I cannot be quiet

I MUST SCREAM THE GRACE OF CHRIST!!

The world must know

The only way to salvation is through humbling oneself

Laying down their old gods

Accepting that this life isn't about us

Tell the world

Don't remain quiet

Don't fear the ones who can destroy your body, but fear the one who can destroy your soul

Speak out

Spread the word

FREEDOM
Caleb John Sep 2018
I thought I was trapped by my past and my addictions

I thought as a Christian

I was supposed to be perfect

Then I learned from preachers and teachers I wasn't alone

The struggle I thought was chained to

But these chains try to re shackle themselves

But you said my sin was atoned for

I realized my sin was nailed beside you on that cross

I'm still a sinner

But my sin has no permission to weigh me down

You gave me the freedom to struggle

You gave me the freedom to fight

But I still forget the strength you gave me

I still find myself at the foot of the cross asking for forgiveness

You see I'm not perfect and neither are you

We mess up again and again

I just have to remember the God who sent me

On my own strength I fail again and again

But I will keep fighting and you should to

When we're in ******* whether it be by men or by sin

We have to remember

When the world hates us

It hated Christ first

So I'm in this for the long run

Sometimes I feel like I've lost everything

But I have to keep my knee bowed to the God of power

And there I find my freedom

This world is temporary

And I'm just passing through

I have the freedom which was given to me by the cross

MY SIN CAN'T HOLD ME DOWN CAUSE I AM FREE!!

REDEEMED!

LOVED!

PAYED FOR!

WE ARE FREE!!!

Out of the Dark
Caleb John Aug 2018
When all I see is black

It's so dark I can't see my hand in front my face

It's so dark it makes me sick

There's no light in here

It makes me depressed

It makes me hopeless

The darkness is endless

The dark is so loud

All I hear is dread

Terror

Death

Brokenness

I hear that I'm unworthy

Worthless

Stupid

Unloved

Pain

The only way to come out of this darkness was to put a gun to my head and pull the trigger.....

Or so I thought.....

Or so many think

They see no hope

And all they feel is pain

We think we live in Hell

But what no one seems to get

Is that when you pull that trigger

There's no turning back

If you pull that trigger

You will be in Hell

You will experience loneliness

Darkness

Burning

Pain

Hurt

Brokenness

Sadness

A­ll you will hear

Are screams

There you will spend eternity

Burning in the lake of fire

I'm just waiting for the day when all humanity cries out for the light

When will we cry to Jesus

When will we let the light shine

I don't ever want to walk in darkness

I will let the light of love shine

There's no one else who can pull us out of this darkness

Jesus is the light

The light always beats the dark

Let him shine on you

Let his love overwhelm you

Put down your guns and let him in

How can I get to the finish line

When I'm not the one running

You're the one who gives me the strength

But I keep messing it all up

I ask you to give me the strength to make it to the end of the line

I want to finish the race with honor

But every time I get up

I keep causing myself to stumble

Please hold me fast

Pick me up

Blow away my blunders

Crush my pride

Thinking I can do it on my own

When you designed every cell that composes my body

You gave me everything I needed

It's all you

So I guess the only way for you to tell me well done

Is for me to let go

Take the reigns

So Be It
Caleb John Feb 2019
Watch

Watch as the God I serve crushes these demons

Watch as he puts the spirit of a warrior into you

I know that my God is with me

If I stand alone waiting for his might then so be it

If I have to wait for centuries

Just to see him win a war in a matter of seconds

So be it

My God is my champion

Now sit down and watch the God of Wonders

Sold Out
Caleb John Nov 2017
The Devil tries to take me
I'm not my own to give
I was bought by the blood of the Lamb
This life is not my own It's Yours
Only Yours
The Devil tried to buy me
But you hide me in Your hands
You bought me so when the Devil tries to get me to sell out
I'll just tell him
This isn't my life so
I'm gonna tell you to shut it when you try to tempt me
Live sold out
It's the hardest but the best decision of your life

How?
Caleb John Dec 2018
How could you love a sinner like me?

You know the things I've done

You know it all and still love me

But how could I know this and try to push you away?

You created a universe

You created an Earth with nearly 8 billion inhabitants and still you find time for me

I know I'm not worthy of it

But you made me worthy through your son

You make the rise and setting of the sun

How could I push you away?

I thought I was too far deep

I thought a standard was required of me and I couldn't fill it

I tried to run and hide

Then I realized that without my relationship with you all I felt was death

You said you'd always love me no matter what

I still can't believe how far Jesus went for me

But forgive me for my faults

I'm the chief of sinners

But maybe that's why you saved me

Was to show just how far you could reach and how far your love could span

Yet I know as far as I've run

I know it couldn't scratch the surface of your eternal love

I hope my salvation reveals your Glory

not mine

You used me to show your love and you allowed me to be a part of the salvation of others

But none of it was ever me

It was all you

Because my hands were on the wheel I would've crashed

I wouldn't even be here

I don't know how I could ask you this but...

Take this life and make a message...

Tolerance
Caleb John Jan 2020
The new generation proposes destruction

Since when has one generation, in all of human history, changed the definition of right and wrong?

The God who built this world wrote what is write and wrong

He also gave warning to these acts that we play into a song

My generation makes purity just want to curl

The Lord of might will not bless a mockery of his creation that gives me the inclination to hurl

His grace abounds to redeem and change a heart that seeks him and his precepts as a jewel

Not those who care nothing of the almighty and only seem to chase what's cool

All I can say is that it is only a loving God that could save such fools as us.

But give ear to what I am saying, you are priceless

The devil can take that which is priceless and convince them that they are worthless

The hand of God will not be stayed from an unrepentant people for much longer
Dear fellow Christians, Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. For those who say their is no God, the one you hate loves you more then you can imagine, but if you do not bend your knee to his will, you will not be spared from his wrath. Call out to him, he will answer.

Our Own Wars
Caleb John May 2019
We are always blind

We begin to find

We can't think past ourselves

We can't tell others about a God who loves them because we're so busy, wrapped up in our own needs, our own wars

I wish we as a nation could look past our selfish selves

And look to the God who made us

It's about Jesus

It's about his glory

Not ours

When can we look past the depression and this society of mass suicide and look around at the grace and forgiveness that was given us

We're so busy looking at our own wars

We don't bother to look at the one happening in the person right next to us
