There was once a young girl named Mag.

She was treated like a old beggar hag.

She had no friends, except for one..

He’s the Father, the Holy spirit, and Son.

Mag was indeed poor,

for she begged all day.

And this is what most people would say

"Get lost! You’ll never get any pay."

But indeed she did, for that night she died.

Not a single person was sad or cried.

. Now there was also a rich man named Treed.

He lived for his gold and greed.

Every time there was free dinner or gold,

He took every thing that Could be sold.

And other times, he would come and say,

"I will go first, and I want my way!!"

He always did, until the day he died.

And when he did, everyone cried.

But he did not know Jesus, nor did he care.

A few little crumbs was all he would spare.

Then when it came time for the judgement day, Mag was first and then she began to say.

"Oh thank you dear Lord! I bless your name!"

She fell at God’s feet,

And she was let into Heaven,

All her family she’d greet.

But when it came time for old greedy Treed,

All he did was think about money and grow did his greed.

But he was doomed for he did not know the Lord.

And then he realized that it was true.

Money was all he ever knew

"I'll suffer for You."

By Leah Kathryn Oxendine

Tonight's the night I take wings and fly.
Tonight's the night I know I will die.
The people are coming to take me away.
I may not see the sunset on tomarrows day.
But it dosn't matter, I'm gonna die for my Lord.

Yes, it doesn't matter, I'll be at Heaven's door.
He is waiting for me, and I'm waiting for him.
I am writing though this light is dim.
They say my future looks pretty grim.
But what awaits me makes me want to grin.
I'll never ever suffer, after this night.

I'll be With Jesus, So, go away you silly fright.
Why would I worry? There's nothing to fear.
Jesus will hold me close and near.
I only worry for me dear friends,
My family, and those who said our love would never end.
I pray for those who are lost.
I thank Jesus for paying the cost!

Thank you Lord! Oh my God, take me home.
I know I'm not all alone.
I'll suffer for you. I'll suffer for you.
They will be here soon,
But I'll still suffer for you.

"Adelle"

By Leah Kathryn Oxendine

There once was a girl named Adelle.

She was very pretty, with golden hair.

But was she a Christian? No one could tell.

Now Adelle was a beauty, that’s what the people said.

She always wore a scarlet gown of the brightest red.

One day however, she was walking along;

And she heard the most horrible song.

She covered her ears, then hurried ‘round the corner,

to see who it might be.

Then when she saw who it was, she gasped and said

" Oh my, Oh Me!’

For It was the handsomest prince she’d ever seen.

He stood proud and tall,

dressed as if he was ‘bout to head off to a ball.

When Adelle realized what she’d done,

She sighed and thought she’d cover it up.

"Oh fair Prince, where going, thee?"

"I am off to a ball to be filled with glee."

"Would you take, a girl such as me?"

"I would, quite happily.."

"Then off we go.. Twee-dee-twee-da."

"But I don’t know you truly love me.

"You judged me for something I was not.

As if I were a little snot."

The prince sadly smiled then went off with his true girl,

And Adelle pushed away a golden curl.

She sadly looked after her gone ‘love,’

then walked off just like a captured dove. 

"Our country's freedom"

By Leah Kathryn Oxendine

 Stripes of red on a flag that’s free;

It waves, and it waves, and it’s meaning I see.

Our country is freedom,

cause’ of our brave men who fought:

They fought for freedom witch they so dearly sought.
