Jesus takes my burdens

Walk in Victory

I had a heavy burden
It was so hard to bear
It always held me captive
Was with me everywhere

This burden was my sin
The lust inside of me
It made me always want more
Of everything I see

Then one day I met Jesus
He came to me with love
He said I’ll take your burden
My love will be enough

He said He’d share His yoke
It was easy and so light
I gave Him all my burden
And walked into His light

Now all I want is Jesus
He fills me with such peace
His joy has overwhelmed me
His hope sets me at ease

The burden that He took away
Still tries to hinder me
But when I look into His eyes
His love is all I see

Please give your lives to Jesus
He will your burdens take
Then you will walk in victory
Every single day

In Hard Times

Isolated

Sulking in a corner
Downstairs in my room
Thoughts of taking my life
All is doom and gloom
I can’t see a future
When I see my past
Why don’t I just end it
This misery will last

Isolated
All alone
The enemy attacks here
Going crazy
Hope is gone
Why am I in such fear

I search my inner being
I find a ray of hope
There’s something deep inside me
That rises like a smoke
It fills my mind with wonder
Then I can sense a joy
The Holy Spirit rises up
His peace I now employ

I won’t get isolated
I won’t go off alone
I won’t look at my past
That robs me of my hope
I’ll look to the future
Where God has plans for me
And in His loving arms
I will always be

Don’t get isolated
Don’t crawl inside your head
Allow the Holy Spirit
To bring joy instead
He is waiting for you
To summon Him today
Rise up from that depression
For God will show the way

Prayer of faith

Call On His Name

I don’t mean to be pushy
Or cruel or rude
I don’t want to hurt you
Or sound really crude

But I must be adamant
This is the truth
Make Christ Your Savior
And Let His love rule

If you don’t you are doomed
To an eternal flame
So before it’s too late
Call on His name

Ask for forgiveness
For all of your sins
Repent and be saved
Let your new life begin

Mercy and Grace

His Mercy is There

I struggle some days to see
The mercy of God for me
I know He is there
I know that He cares
I just don’t know why He loves me

I know He sees all my faults
He sees the worst parts of me
But He quickly forgives
Then He helps me to live
In the mercy He pours out to me

His mercy is always there
His mercy is always there
No matter where I go
His mercy is there
I cannot escape His love
He showers me from above
When I look at myself
His mercy is there

I have to open my eyes
To see all the love He provides
It’s more than enough
To fill up my cup
He has an enormous supply

Now I can plainly see
That His mercy is meant for me
I raise up my hands
I thank God for His plans
He always does the best for me

His mercy is always there
His mercy is always there
No matter where I go
His mercy is there
I cannot escape His love
He showers me from above
When I look at myself
His mercy is there

The Believers Life

At the Time Appointed

Every morning
Day after day
The sun rises slowly
Casting it’s light
Whether cloudy or clear
We see it approaching
The rays stretching far across the horizon
Creeping slowly across the sky
Until the brilliant light
Peaks above the horizon
At the time appointed

Twice a day
Day after day
The tide rushes in
Farther up the sand
Or higher against the rocks
Footprints disappear
Sand castles fall
Reaching its peak it than recedes
Leaving seaweed and shells
And a smooth sand
At the time appointed

The moon travels
Day after day
Across the sky
Various shapes fill our eyes
Crescent moon then half
Half then full
Then back the other way
Affecting oceans by its pull
Causing the tide to rise and fall
The suns light causes the moons shape
Over and over again
At the time appointed

We all will face God
We all will give account
We all will answer for this life
Jesus is the Way
The Truth
The Life
No man comes to the Father but by Him
Have you accepted Him
So that you will be with Him
At the time appointed

What A Friend

What a friend, an awesome friend

He’s with me all my life

He promised He won’t leave me

Or forsake me for all time

 

We have in Jesus, wonderful Jesus

Came to earth, God’s only Son

Gave His life, His precious life

Now the victory has won

 

All our sins, every one

Are washed as white as snow

Now I walk free and complete

Each day He shows me how

 

And griefs to bear, He gives me peace

And joy has filled me heart

His blessings overwhelm me

They flow when day does start

 

What a privilege, an awesome right

Has mercy will always be

It’s amazing I can approach Him

King of Kings and Lord to me

 

To carry. bring to Him

As He’s seated on His throne

Up in heaven, ruling all

The universe is His alone

 

Everything, every little thing

All my worries and my doubts

When I give them all to Him

I can know He cares about

 

To God in prayer, heartfelt prayer

To the King of Kings on high

He hears every word I pray

And He answers in His time

 

Oh, what peace we often forfeit

There’s no need be distressed

When we call out to the Savior

He will always give His best
Oh, what needless pain we bear

There’s no need for suffering

When we cry in heart felt worship

He will come and mercy bring

All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer

Wonder or Wander?

When I was young I’d wander

Through life with little hope

The many days I squandered

Kept me on a slippery slope

 

My soul was caught in trouble

My mind was bent on fun

I sought drink on the double

I thought my days were done

 

I had no cares of future

I partied day and night

Then I became a searcher

And wandered toward the Light

 

The Light, I learned, was Jesus

I learned He died for me

I asked Him for forgiveness

From sin, I was set free

 

Now I wonder at His mercy

I marvel at His grace

One day to heav’n He’ll take me

And I will see His face

 

From wandering to wondering

This change brought peace and joy

There is no more meandering

My life I now enjoy

 

fI you are wondering through life

And wonder what to do

Why not give Him all your strife

And new life He’ll give you?
