Adulation and Praise

by mark walters

Adulation and praise
Twisted sisters of desire
Bred in every heart that beats
Born to stoke a hellish fire

As America's new idols
Claim a title not their own
Who feed on other's worship
But God's glory isn't shown

Siren songs on rocky shores
Call softly to the heart
Lives once bound for glory
Cause other's grace depart

Marvels of the modern times
Blazing in a lusty fire
Their TV antics all the rage
To such lives, all fans aspire

The sound of sweet success
Waits to answer all your dreams
But it's lusting in your heart
Not the beat of angel wings
