You Are My Way

You are my way
My only way to heaven
It is a narrow way
A straight way
Following this way is hard
It requires discipline
And obedience
The world prefers the broad way
Where they can make their own rules
Follow their own path
Do their own thing
They think they are doing good
But they are headed for destruction
You are the way
The way that was blocked in Genesis
By Cherubim and Seraphim
The way to the Tree of Life
Eternal life
There is no other way
Jesus is my way
He is your way
Follow Him
Let Him lead you every day
Let His words guide you
Let His Spirit show you where to step
One step at a time
His footprints and yours
Or sometimes just His
When He carries you
I will trust Him every step
I will follow His rules
I will give Him my life
As a living sacrifice
For He is my way

Jesus Life

I Remember the Cross

There are times that I get hurt by those around me
They do something that I don’t really like
I’ll fuss and moan about offenses given
And I’ll hold my anger right ion through the night

I don’t feel any better
In fact I feel much worse
This feeling that’s inside of me
Can soon become a curse
Somehow I must release it
I search for ways to cope
And then I look to Jesus
That’s where I find my hope

I remember the cross
And the price that He paid
To purchase my salvation
To show me heaven’s way
He said I am forgiven
Now I must pass it on
Forgiving those who hurt me
Forgiving everyone

Now each time someone might say something offensive
Or do something that hurts down in my soul
Right there and then I pray and I forgive them
There’s none of that offense that I will hold

Forgiveness I will give
Forgiveness I will live
I’ll put aside offenses
I’ll live a life of love
For Jesus paid the price
And He’s forgiven me
I’ll practice that forgiveness
So others will be free

I remember the cross
And the price that He paid
To purchase my salvation
To show me heaven’s way
He said I am forgiven
Now I must pass it on
Forgiving those who hurt me
Forgiving everyone

You Are My Light

You are my Light
You shine into the darkness of my soul
Showing me the error of my ways
Shedding your brilliance on my plight
Revealing to me my hidden desires
The desires of my deceitful heart
I have trusted in my heart
It tells me all is well
My heart tells me I am a good man
The blood pumping organ that brings life to my body
Providing nourishment to my cells
Keeping everything going
Everything running
Is true and faithful to my physical body
My heart will always do everything it can
To make the provisions needed for my well being
Physically
But not spiritually
Spiritually my heart does not reveal my sin
It hides it in darkness
Until the light of Jesus shines in
Revealing my sin
This light only comes when I ask
When the Holy Spirit convicts me of sin
Then the Light comes in
The Light that is Jesus
The Light that opens up the dark places
The Light that allows me to see myself as I am
A sinner in need of Salvation
Shine you’re light into my heart Lord
Shine it every day
Reveal every dark place
Every hidden sin
Every wicked way
So that I might truly repent
Not from my intellect and what I know
But by what you reveal to me
I do not want to be intellectually saved
I want to be cleansed completely
Washed with the blood of the Lamb
Free from all sin
All iniquity
Only your Light can do that
So shine your Light into my soul
For you are my Light

The Grace that Covers Me

Every day I’m getting closer
To your precious holy way
You are working in my spirit
So your path my feet will take
As I yield my mind and body
Giving you my every care
You will gently guide me onward
Then one day I’ll see your face

Oh what wonder
Oh what glory
That you would care for me
I will ever
Tell the story
Of the grace that covers me

You have taught me to be patient
By the trials I’ve gone through
There have been so many chances
For me to draw close to you
As I go through every valley
And I see your mercy there
I can trust that I am growing
Through each gift you choose to share

Oh what wonder
Oh what glory
That you would care for me
I will ever
Tell the story
Of the grace that covers me

I look for you everyday
I follow you by your grace
I trust in your sweet embrace
I long to see your face

Oh what wonder
Oh what glory
That you would care for me
I will ever
Tell the story
Of the grace that covers me

Take Control (Music Video)

This is a new chorus the Lord gave me yesterday.  Hope you enjoy it!

Here are the words.

What else can I do but to worship you
What else can I say but give you praise
What else can I offer you but this life you’ve given me
All I have is yours Oh Lord

All of my heart
All of my soul
All of my spirit take control
All of my heart
All of my soul
All of my spirit take control

Open Me

Open me up Lord so others may see
The love that you’ve placed inside of me
Open my heart and mind and soul
That I may show joy to young and old

Open my eyes to see the pain
That others are facing again and again
Open me up Lord to let you shine
The light of the world for all of time

Open me heart Lord to help the lost
To let them known that you paid the cost
Open my mind to understand
What words it will take to reveal your plan

I want to be open to follow your way
I need to be open to your will today
I vow to be open to others in need
I promised to love them in word and deed

Open me. Open me. Open me Lord
Open me up to witness for you
Open me up to touch those for you
Open me up as a light for you
Open me Lord. Open me for you

You Have A Choice to Make

You have a choice to make
You better not be late
It’s heaven or hell
Your choice will tall
Where you will go forever and a day

Christ Jesus died for you
But there’s some things you must do
Confess your sin
Repent within
Ask His forgiveness from a heart that’s true

Then ask Him to be Lord
Make Him the one adored
He will forgive
And You will live
Forever with the saints who’ve gone befre

If you decide to pass
Your joy will never last
You’ll find yourself
Burning in hell
Satan’s minions torturing our flesh

You have a choice to make
You better not be late
It’s heaven or hell
Your choice will tall
Where you will go forever and a day

What Can I Do But Praise You

It will never be enough
No matter what I do
To pay you back for what you’ve done for me
I can’t even count the cost
That you redeemed that day
When you gave your life away at Calvary

Bruised and beaten crowned with thorns
Nails put in your feet and hands
You suffered for my sins upon that tree
Then you rose up from the grave
Forever you will be with me
Oh what wondrous love you have shown to me

What can I do but praise you
What can I do but worship your sweet name
Hallelujah
What can I do but thank you
For all the blessings you have given me
Hallelujah

You are my Lord forever
You are my friend forever
You are my King forever
Bless your holy name
Bless your holy name

What can I do but praise you
What can I do but worship your sweet name
Hallelujah
What can I do but thank you
For all the blessings you have given me
Hallelujah

 

Our Salvation

Unceasing

Shining
Brightly shining
From the sky above
Down to earth below
Every day
The sun’s rays stream down
From so far away
To touch us all
To heat us all
To give us sight
The light reveals colors
In its prismatic glow
Radiating energy and warmth
Even when the clouds appear
Seemingly blocking it out
The warmth still comes
The light still comes
It cannot be quenched
It cannot be darkened
It cannot be stopped
From rising each day
At the appointed time
And setting the same
With brilliance
And majesty
It shines from the heavens
Through all the earth
Unrelenting
Unceasing

So is God’s love
It always shines
Touching us all
With His mercy
And amazing grace
His love is pure and kind
Patient and not envious
His love always seeks our best
Always finds a way
Through every trial
Every test
Every temptation
His love
Never leaves us
Never forsakes us
Always shines its glory on us
Though He is King of Kings
And Lord of Lords
He still loves a sinner like me
He still loves me
When I lose my way
Nothing can separate me from His love
Not mountains or valleys
Not rivers or oceans
Not heaven or hell
Not forces of the spiritual realm
They have no power over His love
His love is always there
Unrelenting
Unceasing
