No Reason

There is no earth;y reason
To pack up for the season
If you love winter, there’s a place to go
The Northern Territory
Year round has winter’s glory
You can ski and sled in mountains of cold snow

There also is no reason
To be stuck in life’s dead pattern
If you haven’t come to know the Savior yet
Just ask Him to come in
He’ll forgive all your sin
Then in His arms you’ll be forever blessed

In response to the daily prompt Territory

Don’t Drink the Kool-Aid

We hear politicians speaking of the things their going to do
Evangelists are harping if you give God blesses you
The world outside is screaming for a change that’s overdue
And they tell us to be careful at what we’re going to choose

I say don’t drink the kool-aid of these modern day prophets
There’s a better potion out there that has long been hard and set
This elixir isn’t an;s device or something made of late
It’s a drink that comes from God Himself void of any hate

The drink I speak of never stops to fill us if we drink
This living water doesn’t come from anybody’s sink
It comes straight from the throne above, and it will make you think
That the wisdom of this world is full of death and stink

Let’s gather round our bible’s folks and read the word of God
Let’s follow in His path and use His wisdom from above
Then we’ll have a chance to fill this world with His great love
Because when it comes to spreading love, His word will be enough

Alleviate The Ruckus

I thought it was convenient
That the officer was lenient
When he stopped me for a tail light out that day
I didn’t think they’d hurt me
When the lights came on behind me
Because I hadn’t done a thing that was astray

But I know that there are some
Who would worry much and run
If those lights came on behind them unaware
Because in our world today
There are many who would say
That a prejudice exists that means to scare

It is my prognosis
That we need symbiosis
To alleviate the ruckus going on
Let’s all work together
To make our world run better
Where all are treated fairly all day long

My Heart Sings

I’ve sought after riches, wealth and fame
I’ve done what I could  to bolster my name
I’ve traveled to places and then back again
I’ve lived a life full of good things

Then I looked at what I had come to possess
And I realized all this was meaningless
Because in the end, my life was a mess
The result of this life would sting

For I had neglected my soul in all this
I decided to give up the life I thought bliss
And give my life to the Saviors sweet kiss
He came and made my heart sing

If you’re in a circle of meaningless life
Why not come in to the Saviors sweet side
And in Him forever you can abide
Safely in love with the King

What Are Yours?

We pay it little attention
We hardly know it’s there
We go through life so blindly
And most of us don’t care

When we’re young we learn to say no
And push the limits of all
As we grow our pride takes center stage
And our own way is our call

We strive for worldly riches
And we thing we know all things
There’s nothing that can teach us
Of a better way to live

My friends this is the symptom
Of the sin that’s born in all
From Adam’s seed it entered
And caused us all to fall

But Jesus paid redemption’s price
To take our sin away
Won’t you accept Him as your Lord
And save your soul today?

Open The Door

This world has it’s cliques and it’s classes
That dictate who’s in and who’s out
It seems that no matter what  I do
I never quite have enough clout

If you’re in the same boat as I am
And wonder who’ll give you a chance
This world is a place of hard lessons
We get stuck in circumstance

But Jesus is waiting with patience
For you to come open the door
He’ll give you His loving acceptance
When you ask Him to be Savior

 

 

In response to the daily prompt Acceptance

Give Your All

It only takes confession
Jesus Christ as Lord
Acceptance of His sacrifice
To take the place of yours

Do these things and you’ll be saved
From hells dark endless days
Your home will be in heaven
He’ll help you find your way

But why stand at the doorstep
When the blessings past the door
Go beyond the minimal
Give your all and reap rewards

Greater peace and joy are there
True hope and no more fear
Faith will come to drive out doubt
And He’ll wipe every tear

Give your all for Jesus
Give your all today
Give into the word of God
Let blessings come your way

 

In response to the daily prompt Minimal

Your Children

I have to admit it’s true
I hope it’s not true of you
I have a tendency
To lack the decency
Of giving each person their due

I have been quilty for years
Of giving a label from fear
If someone is different
I get defiant
And judge them from what I can see

Lord, help me to have compassion
To all who I have interaction
Let me see their heart
And know that they are
A child of yours just as I am

 

 

In response to the daily prompt Label

Lord of All

If you will put your trust in Him
The one who saved you from your sin
The one who died upon that cross
Jesus, Lord of all

Then He will wipe away your tears
You’ll conquer doubt, you’ll conquer fear
Because His strength will pull you through
Jesus, Lord of all

There s no mystery to this
He conquered death so we could live
His Spirit lives within us now
Jesus, Lord of all

I will lift my voice n praise
To the one who my life saved
Gives me victory each day
Jesus, Lord of all

A Brand New Start

When I accepted Jesus my friends thought I was nuts
I’d always been the party guy, no ifs, ands or buts
Now I spoke of love and peace, and they all turned their nose
They thought that I had lost my mind, and I should turn and go

But I persisted in my way of telling them the truth
There was no controversy on the change that I’d gone through
And as I witnessed of the cross, and what He’d done for me
They slowly opened up their minds so I could help them see

One, then two, then a couple more finally gave in
They asked me how they too  could know this freedom from within
I told them it was simple, just ask Jesus in your heart
He will come just as He said, giving you a brand new start
