I can see it in your eyes
That bright shining twinkle
That comes form knowing Jesus
Knowing His love
Knowing His joy
Knowing His peace
Knowing He has removed your sin
As far as the east is form the west.
Knowing He’s preparing a mansion for you
And your home is eternal in heaven
What a wonderful j]knowledge that is
It builds up inside us
And puts a twinkle in our eyes.
In response to the daily prompt Twinkle
He took the stripes His blood ran red
A thorny crown was on His head
Stood Pilate”s judgment on that day
Silently gave His life away
He took the cross, that rugged tree
And on that day He died for me
Bowed down His head, gave up His life
As He became my sacrifice
What a wonderful Savior you are to me
My precious Redeemer you set me free
What a wonderful Savior you are to me, Jesus, oh Jesus
Laid in a tomb, a borrowed grave
Big stone was rolled to seal Him safe
All hope was gone for those He taught
They went to hide, and not get caught.
Three days went past and darkness loomed
Suddenly stirring in the tomb
Then He arose, He arose
With a mighty sound of triumph He arose
The angels up in heaven were rejoicing on that day
For they knew the Son of God was coming home again to stay
He was building up an army of the saints who took His name
Now I am in that army, and I’ll never be that same!
What a wonderful Savior you are to me
My precious Redeemer you set me free
What a wonderful Savior you are to me, Jesus, oh Jesus
I remember well
The Alka Seltzer tale
Plop, plop, fizz, fizz
Would fix you when you ail
But that was temporary
And wouldn’t last for life
Relief would need to come again
When you weren’t feeling right
When you come to Jesus
He wipes away your sin
And sends it far away from you
It won’t come up again
The relief that brings inside you
Is more than you can know
So put your faith in Jesus
And see those ailments go
In response to the daily prompt Plop
It’s an easy life
To just eat cake
Sit back and take it easy
But in the end
You’ll be alone
And hell will make you queasy
The harder road
Is sacrifice
A life that’s lived for Christ
But in the end
Heaven will win
You’ll enjoy eternal life
And when in Christ
The blessings far
Outweigh the price you pay
The cake you eat
While serving Christ
Gets sweeter every day
In response to the daily prompt Cake
Precious are you Lord, precious to me
More precious than silver, or gold or rubies
Dearer to me than anything
Precious are you Lord
Holy are you Lord, Holy indeed
Purer than anything this world can bring
Loving and Justin all your decrees
Holy are you Lord
So I will shout from the mountaintop
Praise the name of Jesus
I will sing with all I’ve got
Praise the name of Jesus
Worthy of my worship
Worthy of my heart
Praise the name, the precious name of Jesus
Merciful are you, my merciful Lord
Your mercy has reached out and pardoned me
From all of my sin and all my disease
Merciful are you Lord
Gracious are you Lord, gracious to me
Your grace extended to Calvary
You give more than I deserve unto me
Gracious are you Lord
He never stops loving me, never stops healing me
Never stops leading me through this earthly life
Never leaves me lonely, never strays away
He’s always right here by my side
And He has a plan for me, a plan to prosper me
I will trust Him always. My life in in His hand
Even through the trials, even through the tests
I will rest in Him each day, my peace is His command
So I will shout from the mountaintop
Praise the name of Jesus
I will sing with all I’ve got
Praise the name of Jesus
Worthy of my worship
Worthy of my heart
Praise the name, the precious name of Jesus
It’s summer time now and it’s warm
But that will soon fade away
And the cool breeze of autumn will come
And the sun will shorten the day
Then winter will surely set in
And the cold north wind will come
Sending a shiver all over me
As I huddle and try to keep warm
But there is another shiver
That has me much more concerned
It’s the shiver of fright that people will feel
When Jesus our Lord will return
When the saints are all gathered together
And those left behind realize
That they are now in tribulation
As was promised in years gone by
If you have not met my Jesus
Now is the time to be saved
You too can avoid the shiver
That will come on that fateful day
In response to the daily prompt Shiver
How do I love you, Lord?
Let me try and count the ways
There are so many things I thank you for
And I give you all my praise
I love you as the creator
You gave us all that we see
You provided a world where we can live
Such a marvelous place to be
I love you as my provider
I have no need that you can meet
You watch out for me and care for me
Every day your grace is so sweet
I love you for you are my healer
When I’m hurt I can trust in you
I never should doubt or fear the result
For I know you will bring me through
I love you for all of the blessings
That flow out to me so many ways
I cannot begin to count all the times
You have touched me day to day
I love you for you are my Savior
You shed your blood to set me free
And you rose again to give eternal life
I’m in awe of your great mercy
There are so many ways I love you
For all the things that you’ve done
My praise will continue for all of my days
Because my victory you’ve won
But above all these things I love you
Just because of who you are
You are Lord of all Lords forever
I am constantly in awe
And I will lift my praises
No matter what life brings
Because you are seated in heaven
And are crowned King of all Kings
Lions and tigers and bears oh my
Roar out their power as we pass by
Fierce is the word that we use to describe
Their countenance on this earth
But fiercer still is the wrath of God
I don’t want to be in His anger caught
And there’s only one way to avoid the onslaught
That will come to those who don’t believe
Jesus, the way the truth, the life
You need to accept His sacrifice
He is the great escape for your life
Trust Jesus, and you will be saved.
In response to the Daily Prompt Fierce
Higher than the mountains
Wider than the oceans
Deeper than the canyons
That’s His love for me
Purer than spring water
Makes us sons and daughters
Fills our heart with wonder
That’s His love for me
What amazing love He has for me
When He gave His life on Calvary
He left His royal throne
To come and die alone
All so I could be set free
Always sends His blessings
Joy that’s never ending
Fills me so my heart sings
That’s His love for me
Peace that calms my heart’s cry
Guides me safely through trials
His Spirit teaches me life
That’s His love for me
What amazing love He has for me
He rose from death and lives again
And one day He’ll return
To bring me home with Him
To a mansion He’s prepared just for me
What amazing love He has for me
I can only lift my voice and sing
Jesus is His name
I’ll give all my praise
Forever He will be my Lord and King
Your love is more than I can fathom
Your hope is way beyond compare
I can’t imagine why you chose to save me
When all I did was mock your name
When I fall into sin you send mercy
When trials come around you lend grace
I see your hand surround me when I wander
And gently lead me back to your embrace
You see my future. I see my past
I need to learn that you always know what’s best
That when the trials of life come in I need to rest
You know my future. My past has passed
I have been blessed by the joy that you give
It overwhelms me each day that I live
Your peace is a river that flows slow and free
I am so thankful that you have blessed me
When sickness of pain should enter my life
I know that you’ll heal me in your chosen time
And if I should lose someone real close to me
I know that your spirit will comfort my grief
You see my future. I see my past
I need to learn that you always know what’s best
That when the trials of life come in I need to rest
You know my future. My past has passed
I can’t praise you enough for what you have done
Or for what you are going to do
So I yield control to your marvelous plan
And I lift my worship to you
The Psalmist
