Heavens Door

2 Replies

I went through life when I was young

Aimlessly at best

Drugs and booze and sex  were found

And sober was a test

I thought I loved the life I lived

But one day realized

That all the things that I believed

Would soon turn into lies

 

Maybe if I’d turned away

From all the party life

And maybe if I’d told the truth

Instead of telling lies

And maybe if hadn’t stolen

Things throughout’t my life

I’d have a home in heaven

And things would be all right

 

But then I learned there’s just one way

To get through heaven’s door

Acepting Jesus as my Savior

Gets me there for sure

There are no maybes in Gods word

His promises endure

So ask Him in your heart today

And heaven will be yours

Constantly abiding

In Him I will stay

Bask in His love

Follow His way

Never to leave

His precious side

He is my Lord

My love and my life.

 

Amazing grace

He’s given to me

Paid all me debt

Then set me free

Out of the darkness

Into the light

He is my Lord

My love and my life.

 

The Old Rugged Cross

Is a vision of love

Total redemption

Sent from above

His precious blood

Shed there for mine

He is my Lord

My love and my life.

 

Great is His faithfulness

He’s always there

Sunrise to sunset

Answer my prayers

He walks beside me

In Him I’ll abide

He is my Lord

My love and my life.

 

It is well with my soul

When I call Him Lord

He is my Savior

Whom I adore

He gives me peace

When the world gives me strife

He is my Lord

My love and my life.

 

Just as I am

He accepts me each day

I’ll never be worthy

Of His awesome grace

He looks beyond

The flaws in my life

He is my Lord

My love and my life.

Only through Christ the blessings flow

Only through Christ will I ever know

The promise from Heaven He bestows

To all who call on His name

 

He bought me at such a great price

By becoming my precious sacrifice

Paying the debt of sin in my life

So that now I am redeemed

 

His blood wiped away all my sin

Now God will never bring it up again

It’s just as if I’d never sinned

Justified by His blood

 

No longer will sickness rule in my life

Because I am healed by the horrible stripes

Now I claim victory when evils rise

Delivered from pain and disease

 

My mind is now free from doubt and fear

The thorns that he wore brought a covering here

Now I can now he will always be near

Peace and Joy flood my life today

 

He opened the way to heaven for me

He calls me His son, and He says I am free

He sets me apart because I believed

Sanctified through the cross

 

He’s there for me in good times or bad

Giving me guidance that I never had

His Holy Spirit shows me His plan

To prosper my life every day

 

From now on I’ll praise Him with all of my heart

I’ll sing out my worship, I’ll never depart

His precious love has set me apart

I am a child of the King

Be Quiet

Leave a reply

I listened

Hoping to hear His voice

Quietly waiting for His direction

 

I heard the voices of this world

Roaring like a mighty wind

But God was not speaking through them

 

I heard the sound of battles in foreign lands

Shaking the earth and all its people

But God was not speaking through them

 

I heard loud preachers and evangelists

With fire in their voices they preached the word

But God’s direction for me was not in their words

 

So I settled down to sleep

Quiet and peaceful

And then I heard His voice

Still and small, giving me direction

 

I Kings 19:11-12.  And, behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the Lord was not in the earthquake: and after the earthquake a fire; but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice

Forever Yours

I bow to you Lord Jesus

You are my sovereign King

You gave your life to set me free

I owe you everything

I offer up my worship

I offer up my praise

I’ll follow you with all my heart

The rest of my days

 

You gave to me your mercy

And wiped away my past

Gone were all the wrongs I’d done

Your love was mine at last

Your joy replaced my sadness

Your peace replaced my fears

I can’t repay the debt I owe

Forever I am yours

 

You offered me your grace

So amazing and so free

Once I asked you for forgiveness

You did so willingly

You gave to me a new life

Now heaven is my hope

I’m so in awe of what you’ve done

My heart is now your home

 

Oh the wondrous love of Jesus

Came to earth to die alone

He our Savior gave His own life

Now He claims us as His own

Full of blessings freely given

Has a plan to prosper me

How can I refuse to praise Him

When His child I’ll always be

 

Praise the mighty name of Jesus

All the earth will bow to Him

Lift His name in solemn worship

Give your life and offering

Praise the wondrous name of Jesus

Lift Him high in joyous song

He is worthy of our worship

Let’s rejoice all the day long

Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow

Leave a reply

Yesterday I was a sinner

Lost in the depths of despair

I had no hope

And I could not cope

And I didn’t really care

 

Yesterday hell was my future

I partied all the night long

I didn’t know

That I was so low

Until someone showed I was wrong

 

Then I met Jesus and life took a turn

My sin was all gone and a new life begun

He saved me from hell and turned me around

Now I am standing on solid ground

 

Today I am forgiven

The slate of my life is wiped clean

He died for my sin

Gave me peace within

The greatest gift I’ve ever seen

 

Today heaven’s my future

Eternal life spent with Him

He rose again

Death does not reign

Due to His love I win

 

When I met Jesus, everything changed

He buried my past and showed me His plan

Now all I want is to tell everyone

Their future is better with Jesus the Son

 

Tomorrow life can be different

You don’t have to live in your sin

He gave His life

The supreme sacrifice

So that you could have His joy within

 

Tomorrow, you can know heaven

And the glorious future He’s planned

Accept Him today

Repent and be saved

And forever you’ll dwell in His hand

Here’s Jesus

My victory won

And now every day, here’s Jesus

Two Great Gifts

Leave a reply

I’m awaiting His mercy this morning
With His sweet, gentle grace by its side
I know that I’ll need them throughout this day
As I live out my everyday life

I try to walk worthy of His name
Always doing the best that I can
This flesh that I live in still wants to be free
To do things that are not in His plan

When I find myself stepping the wrong way
And I’m tempted to keep going there
His mercy steps in to turn me around
And His grace says forgiveness is here

When my words become hurtful to others
Because of my passion and pride
I turn to His grace to help me explain
That this battle is deep down inside
And that only by grace can I conquer
The pride that I have in my life
So I ask them for mercy whenever my words
Are raising their level of strife

When I stumble back into my old ways
And the urge to keep going is strong
His mercy and grace rush in like a flood
To keep me from going along
And if I insist I’ll go deeper
Back into my past life of sin
He reminds me His grace and His mercy
Are there when I want to return

Oh wonderful is His mercy
How amazing is His grace
He did on the cross
At such a great loss
To put these great gifts in place

I can always depend on His mercy
And His grace always covers me
He died for my sin
And then rose again
So I’d be with a Him eternally

Mercy and Grace are amazing
And they’re gifts that He gives away
Let me never forget
To do my best
To give mercy and grace every day
