Born Again

1 Reply

I was born to be holy; I was born to be free

I was born to take part in His ministry

I was born when the spirit came in like a dove

I was born when I accepted God’s own son

 

Born again – He gave me new life

Born again – the old man must die

Born again – by the power of His hand

Praise the Lord, I’ve been born again

 

I was born to be righteous in Christ alone

I was born to live here but make heaven my home

I was born to praise Jesus with all of my heart

I was born to serve Him and to do my part

 

Not a day goes by that I don’t wonder why

The God of the Heavens would come here to die

When I think of the mercy and grace He displayed

I can’t help but worship His wonderful name

 

Born again – He gave me new life

Born again – the old man must die

Born again – by the power of His hand

Praise the Lord, I’ve been born again

What is Your Passion

2 Replies

Our world has turned love

Into lust

And it is called passion

But passion is so much more

More than lust

More than emotion

More than a desire or need

Passion is what you pour your heart into

Your life into

Your soul  into

Your mind into

Your strength into

The Word says

Love the Lord your God

with all your heart

And all your mind

And all your soul

And all your strength

In other words

Be passionate about Jesus

Precious Gifts

1 Reply

When I came to Jesus and asked Him to save

I knew I had little to give

He took what I had, and washed it away

And gave in return precious gifts

 

I gave Him my sorrows for all of the things

That I never seem to do right

He gave me His joy, unspeakable joy

Oh what a sheer delight

 

I gave Him my troubles, and many they were

They compass me every day

He gave me His peace, a peace so complete

Too wonderful to explain

 

I gave Him my doubts, and the fears in my life

They buried me in deep despair

He gave me His faith, so that mountains would move

If I’d call to Him in prayer

 

I gave Him my hurts, my aches and my pains

It seems they’re new every day

He gave me His healing, complete and secure

He heals me in every way

 

I gave Him my thoughts that the future was bleak

That nothing was there in the end

He gave me His hope, eternally sure

Now I know I will see Him again

 

I gave Him my life and my heart and my soul

It seemed I had messed them all up

He gave me salvation, and new life began

I’m free from all that can corrupt

 

These precious gifts, and so many more,

His mercy and grace has supplied

I just go to Him, and lay them all down

And He gives to me a new lfe.

Unperplexed

Leave a reply

Perplexed is a word that we often use

When seeing the plight of this world

There seems to be conflict on every side

And everything’s up in a swirl

 

If we could just reach out in love and not hate

As Jesus would have us to do

Perplexed is a word that would soon disappear

As we follow the golden rule

Nature’s Praise

Leave a reply

As I wake up in the morning

And the sun is breaking through

I sit in awesome wonder

At the good things that you do

 

You fill the air with sunshine

You bring the evening rain

You light the stars at night

And then you bring the sun again

 

You start the birds a chirping

In the early morning light

And as sunset rolls along

You give them sleep into the night

 

The animals all trust you

To provide their daily care

They go about their daily tasks

And know you’re always there

 

The trees uplift their branches

In praises unto you

They know their source of life

And they give praise where it’s due

 

All of His creation

Is a song of simple praise

I think I’ll try to be the same

When I proclaim His name

 

No more murmuring or whining

No more wishing there was more

No more wondering if He hears me

No more doubting His dear word

No more thinking it is my time

No more sulking in my woes

No more worries in my trials

No more angry at my foes

 

If nature can just praise Him

For the good things that He gives

Why should I be any different

In the praise that I uplift

Far From a Winner

3 Replies

It may seem irrational

Or even quite radical

That one man could make such a change

But I’m here to tell you

That this change is quite true

Through Jesus life was rearranged

 

From a dirty, ugly sinner

I was far from a winner

When I found out that He really loved me

I asked Him to come in

My life was cleansed from sin

And now I know He’ll meet all of my needs

 

So if you need a change

And life needs rearranged

Why don’t you cry to Jesus Christ today

He’ll gladly save your soul

And make your spirit Whole

Then guide you as you travel in His way

I Praise You Jesus

I set my eyes on you this morning

My gaze was looking for the light

The morning came upon me quickly

And now the dawn has taken flight

 

I rose out of bed and looked up

Toward the heavens high above

Then I stretched my hands above me

And I started shouting out

 

I praise you Jesus

For this day you’ve given me

I praise you Jesus

Foe the breath inside of me

I praise you Jesus

You have granted me just one more day

 

I praise you Jesus

My eyes are open wide

I praise you Jesus

You are always by my side

I praise you Jesus

For the gift of life you send my way

 

There’s nothing that can keep me

From lifting up your name

No matter what this day brings

You are still the same

 

My wonderful redeemer

My Savior and my friend

You have my life in your hands

You’ll keep me ‘til the end

 

I praise you Jesus

For this day you’ve given me

I praise you Jesus

Foe the breath inside of me

I praise you Jesus

You have granted me just one more day

 

I praise you Jesus

My eyes are open wide

I praise you Jesus

You are always by my side

I praise you Jesus

For the gift of life you send my way

This day we remember an enemy lurks

Who would love to harm us much

He has looked at our land and despises the fact

We’ve been blessed by the Master’s touch

As our morals decline and our streets fill with hate

He slowly creeps in like a fog

We better stand up and shout from the roofs

This enemy must be stopped

 

We love America

Land of the free

Brave soldiers bled and died

For liberty

Let all who threaten us

Be brought to dust

By the Mighty hand of God

In Him we trust

 

In this year of great division

All across our land

It is time we come together

And make a bold new stand

One that says we are united

And our country’s standing tall

When we rise up as a nation

We can never fall

 

So let us boldly lift our voices to the sky

And pray that God will hear our heartfelt cry

When we bow down on our knees

And Him only do we seek

He will come and heal our land that very day

 

We love America

Land of the free

Brave soldiers bled and died

For liberty

Let all who threaten us

Be brought to dust

By the Mighty hand of God

If you’re looking for peace in your turmoil

And you can’t find the solace you need

Where peace always Flows

And sadness is claiming your day

And you will be loved evermore
