Then I realized, who am I telling this story to? You? Me? Who?

“There is so much good in the worst of us, and so much bad in the best of us, that it doesn’t behoove any of us to find fault with the rest of us.” – Frank Cole, one of the men in Pop's Sunday school class, which Jim and I have been attending.

Then rain cleared his whole entire head one day. Weeks, months, years had gone by since he could clear the fog. Then one day- the storm moved on. It might have been a bolt of lightening, or hurricane winds, nobody knows for sure. One day he just woke up, and it was clear. Thoughts, tastes, understandings, everything radiated, illuminated by the divine consciousness that is like the water underneath the bottom of the ocean of consciousness.

Hallelujah
Martin Sexton

Does Satan wear a suit and tie
Or does he work at the Dairy Queen
Does he listen to rock and roll
Does he feed the mean
Singing Hallelujah

What about Jesus
Didn't he do it too?
Hang out with prostitutes
And have a drink or two.
Power of example
My mama said it and I heard
She says one ounce of action
Beats a ton of words.

Singing Hallelujah.
Mama said there would be angels
Mama said there would be sun

Is the devil in Elvis to go where no white man went
Or hiding in Hugh Hefner's body or maybe even Larry Flynt.
Say, hows about the President shielding all them stones
Man if I could find a shield like that I'd run 'round naked
in my glass home.

Sippin' Hallelujah
I think my angel's gone to Vegas
Sippin' Hallelujah
Holding aces in her hand. Hallelujah
As she's singing rock of ages. Hallelujah
On the table at the Sands. Hallelujah

Does Satan wear a suit and tie or
Does he work at the Dairy Queen.
Does he listen to rock and roll
Does he feed the mean
Streak in all of us.
All us saints here on earth
Hypnotized and over-advertised
'Til we're numb at birth

Singing Hallelujah
And my angel's turning pages
Singing Hallelujah
And she just don't understand. Hallelujah
That the devil's hot on her trail. Hallelujah
On the road to broken promised land. Hallelujah
On the TV and the radio. Hallelujah
Good and evil look the same to you
