Not like a Hot Dog

I am a lover of hot dogs

Mustard and relish on top

They taste oh so good

A wonderful food

Three with the buns is enough

 

But when it comes to my soul

Only Jesus can satisfy

Nothing to garnish

Like mustard or relish

Just His precious grace gives me life

 

 

In response to he daily prompt Relish

Wondrous Grace

Your grace amazes me

It’s all I think about

For when I was a sinner

You turned my life around

 

I was lost and hopeless

My days filled with despair

But then your grace came flooding in

Forgiveness found me there

 

I knelt down at the altar

And asked you to come in

Your grace was there to meet me

And take away my sin

 

Oh, the wondrous grace of Jesus

More than I could ever dream

Just keeps giving me His blessings

Undeserved He gives to me

 

Every time I fail Him

I come to Him in tears

His grace is there to meet me

And take away my fears

 

And when I’m having troubles

And can’t find the way out

His grace comes in and rescues me

And takes away all doubt

 

Oh, the wondrous grace of Jesus

More than I could ever dream

Just keeps giving me His blessings

Undeserved He gives to me

 

I will lift my voice in praise

To His glorious name

Worship Him with all I am

For His wondrous grace

Beyond Belief

I must say it is not true

That you can save yourself

 

If Jesus isn’t Lord

Then you’ll wind up in hell

But it’s also no hyperbole

It’s a fact that brings relief

That life in Jesus Christ

Is blessed beyond belief

 

 

 

In response to the daily prompt Hyperbole

The Vine

Lord feed me wisdom
That I might see
All the injustice
That’s all around me
All of the heartache
All of the pain
All of the suffering
All the disdain
Feed me a heart
That will reach out in love
And touch all the broken
So they’ll know your love

Lord feed me courage
That I might know
How to change doubt
Into faith that shows
All of the fear
All of the worry
All of the sorrow
All of the hurry
Feed me the strength
To open their eyes
And lead them to you, Lord
So faith will arise

You are the vine
I am the branch
Fill me with love
Give me a chance
To bear you much fruit
As I follow your plan
Tend to my life
With your loving hand

Feed me compassion
So others  may see
Your love for them, Lord
Through the life that I lead
All of the joy
All of the peace
All of the grace
All the mercy
Feed me with life
In all that I do
So I can successfully
Lead them to you

And all of the fruit I bear dear Lord

I owe it all to you

It is your loving hand that prunes the branch

To make it bear more fruit

So do with me what you will, dear Lord

To shape and mold this branch

No matter the trial or test that comes

My life it will enhance

You are the vine
I am the branch
Fill me with love
Give me a chance
To bear you much fruit
As I follow your plan
Tend to my life
With your loving hand

He Endured For Me

It was not a pretty sight

In Jerusalem  that day

As they bludgeoned my Jesus

With cat-o-nine tails

 

Blood all around

Crown of thorrns on  His  head

Then up to Golgotha

Nails in His feet and hands

 

He endured it all

To wash away my sin

From the cross He cried out

Father forgive them

 

And the Father looked down

And saw His one Son

Ands forgave every sin

For all who choose Him

 

 

 

 

In response to the daily promptBludgeon

It’s Not Up To Me

It’s not up to me

To save a soul

To take their sins

And make them whole

But it is up to me

To tell them of Christ

So That they can accept Him

And change their lives

 

It’s not up to me

To heal the sick

To take their pain

And help them live

But it is up to me

To help them see

The one who heals

And dries their tears

 

My task is to tell them of Jesus

And the wonders He’s done for me

To open their eyes to the light of His love

So that they will truly believe

 

It’s not up to me

To convict of sin

To judge the lost

And purify them

But it is up to me

To witness each day

Of the love of Christ

And to pray and pray

 

It’s not up to me

To look down on them

Or to think I’m better

Because I have Him

But it is up to me

To love them with all

My heart must go out

To both big and small

 

My task is to tell them of Jesus

And the wonders He’s done for me

To open their eyes to the light of His love

So that they will truly believe

 

For I do not know what tomorrow brings

It just might be their last day

I need to tell them of Jesus

And pray, and pray, and pray

Down with the Giant

David was a teenager

When he faced the giant

Goliath had a victors laugh

But David brought him down

 

The giant in our lives is sin

We’ve no way to defeat it

But Jesus paid the price for us

The giant’s been defeated

 

Today take Jesus as your Lord

And He will be your Savior

The giants in your life will fall

Before His mighty name

 

In response to the daily prompt Giant

I Hear His Name

I hear His name

His Mighty name

Sings His praise

Hosanna from on high

With His power

He can heal all pains

Broken hearts

And wounded souls

Arise to live again

 

His name is Savior

From sins dead grasp

He brings us out of chains

Our sin is washed

As white as snow

He frees us from our shame

 

His name is Counselor

His word is truth

He guides me every day

Teaches me

To follow in His ways

 

I hear His name

His Glorious name

His praise flows from my lips

And King of Kings is He

And lift my hands

With my praise offering

 

Worthy, worthy

Is the Lamb

Worthy of my praise

I will lift Him

Up today

And praise His mighty name

Crossing the Great Divide

There’s a great divide between God and man

The gulf is large and deep

It’s been in place since Adam ‘s day

It’s way the angels keep

 

When Jesus died upon that cross

He paid the price for sin

And He became the crossing bridge

For all of us to win

 

The only way to God you see

Is Jesus Christ today

So come and take Him as your Lord

And He’ll show you the way
