Homeward Bound

2 Replies
I’m waiting for the trumpet sound
When dead believers leave the ground
They rise to Him
Free of their sin
And will go with Him, homeward bound
Then those of us who still remain
And confess the Lord, Christ Jesus name
Will leave this earth
And rise with mirth
And join Him in the clouds that day
But all who do not know the Lord
Will stay here on this earth forlorn
The judgment day
Will soon take place
And they will weep, and cry and mourn
The book of Revelation comes
God’s wrath us poured out on everyone
Though some get saved
That will be spared
The rest will suffer pain unknown
And when the final battle ‘ s won
Christ’s victory will all be done
If we’re with Him
We also win
And heavens home for everyone
But those who lose this fateful day
Will with their last breath surely pay
The Lake of Fire
Is their last pyre
Hells’ torment is where they remain
You must tell those around you now
That Jesus soon is coming down
Please get them saved
So they’ll evade
The judgement coming in the clouds

Start With Praise

2 Replies
If you want to have
A great day
I suggest that you
Start with praise
God is worthy of
Every word you have to say
Maybe music is
What you need
To get out of bed
On your feet
Set your radio
So your heart awakes to beat
Because praise will
Lift your spirit
Worship will
calm your worries
Putting Him first
Will bring you peace
So put your
Whole heart in it
Don’t let your world
Or your duties
Crowd out the praise
That puts your mind at ease
Singing Hallelujahs
Glory to the King
Hallelujahs
Lord of Everything
Glory,  glory
Savior of the world
Glory, glory
Giver of the word
Holy, holy
Perfect sacrifice
Holy, holy
Died to give me life
Loud Hosannas
Rose again that day
Loud Hosannas
Gave us power to pray
So many ways to praise Him
So many things He’s done
So don’t forget to start each day

 

By singing of His love!

Before the Light

Leave a reply

So very long ago

Our whole earth was void

Darkness filled each crevice and the air

But God said Light appear

And darkness had to flee

As in the light the darkness disappears

 

We all are born in darkness

just like this little earth

And slowly light is added as we grow

Learning brings us knowledge

And knowledge brings us light

And on those subjects darkness has to go

 

But essentially the main thing

Is to shed the light on our sin

So darkness doesn’t rule our hearts and souls

Jesus is the only Light

That can win this darkness fight

We must apply His blood by faith and we will know

 

Jesus is the Light

That God spoke into Darkness

Way back in the book of Genesis

Before the sun and moon

And even the stars above

This Light became the light of the world

 

And still today He shines

Forgivigs all mankind

If they will simply ask Him in their hearts

So free yourself from Sin

and Ask Him to come in

And let His light be shown into your heart

God Covered It

Leave a reply
God formed man from dust
Breathed life into him
And when he chose to disobey
God covered it
God asked Abram to obey
By giving his own Son
When God saw he’d follow through
God covered it
David had Uriah killed
Just to take His wife
When Nathan pointed out his sin
God covered it
Man has sinned throughout time
He prefers to disobey
But when his cry goes out to God
God covers it
Finally God saw that man
Would never get it right
So He set His plan in motion
A covering for all time
Because God So loved to world
He sent His only son
To die upon across
To cover all my wrong
So now when I do wrong
And disobey His law
I look up to that cross
And God covers it all

His Perfection

Leave a reply

I used to try and do it all

Not wondering if wrong or right

But it wasn’t long before I’d fall

And get lost in the fight

 

I wanted to be perfect

To impress all of my friends

But I soon found the difference

To gain any respect

 

Because I can never be perfect

In this human flesh I have

The only chance at that aspect

Is to call on Jesus name

 

Because when He comes to live in me

His Spirit makes me whole

And His perfection dwells in me

Forever in my soul

The Celestial City

Leave a reply

I can’t wait to get home to glory

Where my precious Jesus I’ll see

I;ll walk through those pearly gates

And onto the celestial sea

 

Golden streets will welcome my footsteps

Trees of healing will line the street

And I’ll sit at the feast He has made me

And then my Jesus I’ll meet

 

Oh what singing there ll be in that City

The Celestial City of God

All praises to Him will be lifted

I will stand before Him in awe

 

I urge you to make sure your ready

By making Jesus your Lord

And one day you’ll enter to heaven

The Celestial City of God

No More Struggling

Struggle  Written in response to the Daily Prompt

I used to blame God for my hardships

It seems He was out to get me

I wandered in drugs and  some drinking

And thought He’d abandoned me

 

But one day I turned toward His mercy

And I asked Him to enter my life

I can still remember His answer to me

As He walked in and opened my eyes

 

He said my struggle was not against Him

But against my own sinful heart

But now that I had Him walking with me

The path would not be so hard

 

He said He’d walk with me every day

And help me with anything hard

So I smiled and I took hold  of His hand

And my struggles all seemed to depart

 

Turn

Leave a reply

There are times in life when I get turned around

From the path the God has chosen just for me

But when I realize

The troubles that arise

There’s only one way that will set me free

 

Every time I turn around, there’s Jesus

He said if I’ll repent, He’ll forgive

So when I fall to sin

Or trouble deep within

I turned to Him and he will help me live

 

If my life has turned to pain or sickness

And I start to fear that this will be the way

If I turn to the cross

And see his precious blood

That blood will heal me every single day

 

If I find that fear and doubt has crossed my path

And I simply don’t believe I’ll ever win

I turn to read His word

The promise of my Lord

He fills with up with faith deep within

 

If I find myself in weakness or despair

And I feel like I just can’t go on

I turn my trust to Him

And he comes flowing in

And tells me He’s been with me all along

 

So if you find yourself

In trouble, and need help

I trust you now know what to do

Just simply turn around

And Jesus will be found

He will always see you through

The Way of Love.

Lord of My Heart

Leave a reply
Wonderful Jesus
Lord of my heart
You rescued me
Out of the dark
You gave your life
So that I could be free
When you died sinless
On Calvary’s tree
Bought my salvation
A debt that I owed
Your love has paid
So I could have hope
Rose from the grave
Up to heavens door
Where I will dwell
Forever more
Wonderful Jesus
Lord of my heart
I know that you
Will never depart
You promised me
You’d stay by my side
From this very day
‘Til the day that I die
Then when I rise
To my heavenly home
I’ll spend eternity
Never alone
Wonderful Jesus
Lord of my Heart
I’ll worship you
Until I depart
Then when I land
On my mansion above
I’ll praise you always
For your tender love
