What An Amazing Story

I listened to the Lord when He spoke to me
Knew that He loved me abundantly
And I knew what He spoke would come to be
At a time He had already planned

He told me that I should tell everyone
Of the work on the cross that he had done
I should tell of the Father who sent His Son
Because of His love for the world

What an amazing story
What an amazing friend
He asks us to share
And make them aware
Of His love that will last ‘til the end

I asked Him for boldness so I could speak
To all those who lovingly I would seek
And tell them the story of His great deed
And hopefully they would be saved

He told me don’t worry about the results
My job was to tell them the truth that’s all
The Spirit would be there to give them a call
The word would not return void

What an amazing story
What an amazing friend
He asks us to share
And make them aware
Of His love that will last ‘til the end
 
I’ll tell them I’ll tell them of your great love
I’ll praise you forever for all you have done
Until all my friends have been saved and won
To your precious holy way

What an amazing story
What an amazing friend
He asks us to share
And make them aware
Of His love that will last ‘til the end

You Love Me So

Solemnly 

I wait for thee

Your grace

Your love

Your sweet mercy

All around me

This I see

Because you love me so

Silently

I wait for thee

Listening

To hear you speak 

Knowing

You will comfort me

Because you love me so

Undeserving 

That is me

I am truly 

Unworthy 

Yet you came

And died for me

Because you love me so

Resting in

Your constant love 

Daily you 

Send from above 

All my praise 

Is not enough 

To show I love you so

Life Takes It’s Turns

I’ve always loved good music
It causes my heart to dance
There’s always a joy when I’m singing
To a song that I find by chance

We used to listen to records
Forty-five RPM was the speed
Those singles would jump on the turnstile
And we’d all start dancing with ease

Then 8 track and CD and DVD came
The records still there, but now small
And I listen to much different music
That lifts up a praise to the Lord.

Life changes fast in this world of ours
There’s little that remaiins the same
The only exception is Jesus
His truth and love will never change

If you need some come assurance
That will always be there for you
Just call on the name of Jesus
His record is always true.

Life Anew

I could hear the echo softly
As I went to see old friends
Their quiet murmuration
Came so quickly without end

A change had taken place in me
That made them stop and pause
They saw a new man standing there
And wondered ’bout the cause

I told  them I’d been born again
Asked Jesus in my heart
I put away my dark old life
He gave me a new start

Now that they had seen it
They had to know it’s true
And thus began my journey
To start my life anew

 

In response to the daily prompt Murmuration

Grace Is Everyting

He is here very near
Guiding me each day
Helping me to overcome
Trials on the way
He is watching eyes on me
Keeping me from harm
Seeing that I have His love
In His outstretched arms
Jesus my dear Savior
What a friend To Me
Always there
Always cares
Filling all my needs
Jesus precious Jesus
My redeemer King
Watching me
Hearing me
Grace in everything
He is hearing ears on me
Every single prayer
What a comfort I can feel
Knowing that He hears
He will answer in His time
His word has promised me
I will never doubt His love
What He wants will be
Holding me hearing me
Loving me watching me
Guiding me cares for me
Grace in everything
Jesus my dear Savior
What a friend To Me
Always there
Always cares
Filling all my needs
Jesus precious Jesus
My redeemer King
Watching me
Hearing me
Grace in everything

In The End

I can’t imagine how I would feel
If  I didn’t know where I would go
There’s eternal bliss in heaven above
Or fire and torture below

There’s a way you can know where you will go
So you won’t have to be nervous again
Make Jesus your Lord by asking Him in
And in heaven you’ll be in the end

Heavenly Vision

When I read about Heaven
It’s plain to see
That’s Heavens the place
That I want to be

With a colorful mind
A vivid mind set
I picture a scene
Like none I’ve seen yet

Streets of gold
Gates of pearls
A foundation of gems
Light of Jesus
Shines so bright
There’s no need for the sun

Can you picture it?
Do you know you’ll be there?
Jesus is the way
That you can be sure

The Devil’s Mean Band

The devil met God aone day long ago
Said I’ll fight your Son nd His blood will flow
God said go ahead I’ll send Hiin to earth
Just give Him some time to show them His worth

The devil agreed on thirty three years
The parley thus ended the demons all cheered
When Jesus had finished the time that was planned
He turned Himself over to the devil’s mean band

They beat Him and whipped Him and crowned Him with thorns
He carried His cross His flesh was all torn
Nails were then put in His hands and His feet
The devil cried victory  Jesus died, sure defeat

But three days later He arose from the grave
The devil was doomed Jesus sealed his fate
God just smiled big as His Son now came home
He knew all along His side had won

Free

Free
Free from doubt
Doubt about my future
Doubt about which path to follow
Doubt about who is in control

Free
Free from fear
Fear of the future
Fear of the things from my past
Fear of falling into a trap

When I gave my life to Jesus
He set me free
And He keeps me free
For eternity

Free
Free from shame
Shame about my sin
Shame about the words of my lips
Shame about who I have hurt

Free
Free from guilt
Guilt about who I have hurt
Guilt about my sinful past
Guilt about a wasted life

When I gave my life to Jesus
He set me free
And He keeps me free
For eternity

Free
Free from worry
Worry about the provisions of life
Worry about who might hurt me
Worry about where I will find happiness

Now I am free
Free to have joy
Free to have peace
Free to have hope
Free to have His love

When I gave my life to Jesus
He set me free
And He keeps me free
For eternity
