Share The Light

Leave a reply

There’s a feeling in the air
That’s hard to explain
It always comes this time of year
I feel I should dare
To make a life change
And I’m hopeful the change will endure

Call it a hunch or dream
Or resolution
My mind is determined to try
‘Cause right now it seems
I shouldn’t be done
Growing in my spirit life

Starting right now I’ll try
To rid all distractions
And live more in tune with Christ
I Him I’ll abide
With daily devotions
And pray for the lost to gain life

But more than anything
I’ll be determined
To praise Him with all of my might
I’ll lift my voice and sing
From deep down within
I’ll worship Him and share His light.

Forever Grateful

Leave a reply

I’m forever grateful for
What Jesus did that day
When He came to earth a babe
In a manger filled with hay
When He left His royal throne
He knew the price He’d pay
Yet He came and did it anyway

I’m forever grateful for
The mercy He shows me
I am such a sinner
Yet He died to set me free
And He rose up from the dead
So I will live eternally
I can’t believe He did it all for me

Oh, what a Savior
He is to me
My love grows deeper
Each time I see
His hand of mercy
Sweep over me
He is my Savior
My friend indeed

I’m forever grateful for
The joy He gives to me
It conquers every fear
And fills my heart with glee
He also gives me peace
That calms the storms in me
Fear and doubt just have to flee

I’m forever grateful for
His amazing grace
When I make all my mistakes
He won’t throw them in my face
He calmly reassures me
That beside Him is my place
And one say I’m going to see His face

Oh, what a Savior
He is to me
My love grows deeper
Each time I see
His hand of mercy
Sweep over me
He is my Savior
My friend indeed

Trouble Within

4 Replies

I won’t cry
‘Cause I know why
Some people just can’t win

And I can’t cope
With those that mope
Due to trouble deep  within

If they’d just cry
To the one who died
To take away their sin

Then they could cope
And have new hope
A new life they’d begin.

More Time

This year has past
A new is upon us
What will it bring
Good things, I trust

More time with God
Giving Him praises
Lifting my heart
Accepting His graces

More time in prayer
Lifting my neighbors
Hoping to see
Them come the Father

More time to love
Those who are hurting
Giving them hope
That their hurt is fleeing

More time to seek
His wisdom and passion
That I might proclaim
His words to the nation

More time to praise
My wonderful Savior
Lifting my voice
To worship my Lord

Yes, this year will bring
A new fire within me
To honor the name
Of Jesus my Lord

Meaningless Things

11 Replies

I used to get Sports Illustrated
And Consumer News
Readers Digest was a favorite
And every year renewal
Was done through PCH
Hoping that my number came our right

But all those things were meaningless
When it came to life and death
I needed so much more to be content
Then one day I found Jesus
And renewal for my soul
Now my life has meaning once again

Wondrous Love

Days roll into nights
Nights roll into days
When I think of God
I’m constantly amazed
At the love that He has for me

Abundant stars at night
One star rules the day
hen I come to God
I give Him all my praise
For the grace that He shows to me

I will sing I will sing
Of His wondrous love
And the mercy and grace
That He shows to us
I will lift up my praise
All of my days
I will sing of His wondrous love

Time and time again
I hear the melody
When I come to God
I cannot help but weep
As His presence sweeps over me

When the day is done
And the sun is getting low
Then I come to God
His mercy overflows
As I lift my voice in praise

His beauty is sweet
He’s holy and just
His power is great
His wisdom is vast
His mercy unending
His grace evermore
His love knows no limits
It’s Him we adore

I will sing I will sing
Of His wondrous love
And the mercy and grace
That He shows to us
I will lift up my praise
All of my days
I will sing of His wondrous love

 

We Win!

The stage was set just perfect
For Satan and his crew
Jesus they were going to crucify
Satan thought he’d pillage
Peace and joy and hope
From all who thought this Jesus brought them life

He used the guards to thrash Christ
Then they nailed Him to that tree
He died and then was burred in the tomb
Satan danced in victory
He thought the battle won
The Son of God was dead, and not too soon
Suddenly Christ then appeared
And took the keys of hell
Satan’s power was pillaged from within
Jesus Christ defeated death
He lives forevermore
He made the way for all of us to win

The Vision

7 Replies

Soaring

High above the earth

I’m soaring

Flying through the clouds

I’m soaring

Looking down at earth below

Hoping

By faith I ask the Lord

I’m hoping

That we can make a change

I’m hoping

Love will conquer all our fears

And then I see a fountain

A fountain filled with joy

Springing up all over

From within the saints of God

And then I see a river

A river filled with peace

Flowing ‘cross the landscape

Centered where the joy had been

They flowed into an ocean

An ocean labeled love

Eventually this ocean

Touched the nations all around

Wond’ring

Could this really be

I’m wond’ring

If the saints of God can yield

I’m wond’ring

If the vision I have seen can come

Hearing

The voice of God declare

I’m hearing

My son this can come true

I’m hearing

When all my children heed my word

I drop down on my knees

And ask forgiveness now

He shows me His great mercy

And bids me go and tell

The vision that I’ve seen

Can be both here and now

If only we will share our love

With everyone around

Soaring

All throughout the land

I’m soaring

Praising God’s great love

I’m soaring

Knowing that the world can change

Hoping

The saints will hear the call

I’m hoping

And release the love of God

I’m hoping

To see this vision come to life

The Day After

Leave a reply

The day has quickly past
The gifts are all unwrapped
The wrappings have been swiftly thrown away
The Christmas feast is done
Guests have all gone home
Now you rest from such a busy day

Your mind goes drifting back
To the year that has just past
You write down all the wonderful events
Then you start to plan
For the year that is at hand
Hoping to achieve the very best

You start to make a list
Of thinks that you would wish
Would come true in the coming year
Perhaps this year would be
A good year to agree
A closer walk with God would be so dear

Take more time to pray
Read the word each day
Listen for the sound of His sweet voice
Help those who have needs
Be a friend indeed
Always strive to make the righteous choice

Tell God all your fears
Let Him dry your tears
He will fill your heart with His sweet peace
Bring your needs to Him
And you will always win
All your doubts and worry He’ll release

With these resolutions
We know that the conclusion
Will open up a year that’s full of life
So please take time to pray
That you would find a way
To have a closer walk with Jesus Christ
