One day it’s going to happen
And it’s too far away
Jesus Christ will split the Eastern sky
And all have accepted Him
As Lord of all their lives
Will vanish as from earth they take their flight
Imagine all the chaos
That will happen on that day
When millions will be gone iin just a flash
If you don’t want to stay behind
Ask Jesus to come in
And you will rise with us because you asked
In respone to the daily prompt Vanish
I love to come into His house
And lift my voice in praise
Raise my hands up high
And lift His holy name
Jesus, name above all names
Jesus, worthy of my praise
Jesus, let my lips proclaim
I love the name of Jesus
My voice will lift His mighty name
Each day I am alive
Loud Hosannas ring
His spirit testifies
Jesus, He’s the King of Kings
Jesus, He’s the Lord of Lords
Jesus, blessed forevermore
I love the name of Jesus
My hands are raised to heav’n above
I offer Him my life
I want to be with Him
For all the rest of time
Jesus, every knee shall bow
Jesus, sovereign Lord of all
Jesus, reigning over all
I love the name of Jesus
His name can move the mountains
His name can calm the sea
His name can heal our sickness
And wipe out all disease
His name can wash our sins away
His name can set us free
His name can fill our hearts desire
Supply all of our needs
Jesus, gave us His great love
Jesus, His name is enough
Jesus, let my voice lift up
I love the name
The wondrous name
I love the name
of Jesus.
I used to be running scared all the time
That hell was awaiting me
I’d finally taken a look at myself
And realized I wasn’t free
This spiriitual evaluation
Then brought me to my knees
And I prayed a prayer to Jesus
And asked Him to forgive me
He did for me just as I asked
Then He made a change by decree
He just rearranged a few letters
To make scared into sacred for me
My life now is totally different
It’s a wonder that He set me free
So now I willl live for my Savior
And through Him, how sacred I’ll be!
In response to the daily prompt Sacred
Can I praise Him enough
For all He has done
He has given His love
And my vict’ry He won
Can I thank Him enough
For His mercy to me
When I was still rough
He set me free
I will lift up His name
His excellent name
I will lift it up high with my voice
That magnificent name
Is worthy of praise
I will lift up His name and rejoice
Can I cry out enough
Of my love for my Lord
It is Him that I love
It is Christ I adore
Can I praise Him enough
For His marvelous grace
I’ll not stop lifting up
I’ll not stop giving praise
I will lift up His name
His excellent name
I will lift it up high with my voice
That magnificent name
Is worthy of praise
I will lift up His name and rejoice
Jesus, Oh sweet Jesus
Jesus, my Lord and my King
Jesus, wonderful Jesus
You are my everything
Jesus, matchless name, Jesus
Jesus, my Savior divine
Jesus, merciful Jesus
You are forever mine.
Back so many years ago
When i was just a lad
I had a panoply of baseball cards
Today I sometimes weep
When I think of what would be
If I had kept them clean and in safe guard
But now I see my life
And I smile with no regrets
Because I’ve taken Jesus as my Lord
And he has given me
A panoply of blessings
That is much more precious that a million cards
In response to the daily prompt Panoply

I am the Vine, you are the branches. When you’re joined with me and I with you, the relation intimate and organic, the harvest is sure to be abundant. Separated, you can’t produce a thing. (John 15:5, The Message)
In the U.S., the Thanksgiving holiday is over. Yet my thankfulness exceeds a five-day weekend feast.
I am incredibly thankful for the peace-filled place I am in, joined with Christ who led me into my Father’s embrace. God’s arms are full of unconditional love, extravagant compassion and outrageous grace and mercy.
My mission as a follower of Jesus is
to bring others back to Him. It is central to our good news that God was in Christ making things right between Himself and the world. This means He does not hold their sins against them. But it also means He charges us to proclaim the message that heals and restores…

I hardly know what to write
When I sit down at my keyboard
My own words just don’t seem to carry
The message that comes from my Lord
So I do all I can to block out
My own thoughts and words for my rhyme
And I turn to the Holy Spirit
To construct my posts one at a time
In response to the daily prompt Construct
He started in a manger filled with hay
At death borrowed tomb is where He lay
He never owned a home
In ministry He roamed
Teaching of the truth, the life, the way.
He was the King who came to die
A minister of light and life
The masses followed Him
He eased their suffering
And told them words that opened up their eyes
He is the King eternal
The everlasting God
The mighty creator
The one who reigns above
His victory is forever
He shed his precious blood
He died for you and me
So we could know His love
The leaders of the day were mad
The words He shared they thought were bad
They sought to take His life
Against Him the conspired
They turned the crowd against Him and were glad
This King was beaten mercilessly
He carried His cross to Calvary
His feet and hands were nailed
The soldiers had prevailed
They crucified Him there upon that tree
The borrowed tomb became His grave
The guards had sealed the tomb and stayed
But death could not hold Him
Over the grave, He wins
Now eternal life is mine always
He is the King eternal
The everlasting God
The mighty creator
The one who reigns above
His victory is forever
He shed his precious blood
He died for you and me
Some people quote Confucius
Or Plato or Gandhi
Others look at stars and think
They need astrology
I prefer the words of Jesus
They echo down through time
Not only are they full of truth
They also changed my life
For I was once a sinful man
Who did a whole lot wrong
But Jesus took my sin away
So now I sing His song
It is amazing how just words
Can make a difference
I pray that my words echo down
And touch my grand children
In response to the daily prompt Echo
