Go To Jesus

If you’re looking for peace in your turmoil

And you can’t find the solace you need

There’s one place to go

Where peace always Flows

Go to Jesus

 

If the joy in your life is depleted

And sadness is claiming your day

You’ll find what you need

If you sit at His feet

Go to Jesus

 

Jesus has all that I need

And all I could ever desire

He’s always right there

To hear every prayer

I will never go wrong with Him

 

If you think you’re unloved by the world

And you feel like you’re always alone

I know that you’ll find

A real love divine

Go to Jesus

 

His mercy is everlasting

His grace flows freely from His throne

When you ask Him in

He will be your friend

And you will be loved evermore

 

Jesus has all that I need

And all I could ever desire

He’s always right there

To hear every prayer

I will never go wrong with Him

The Little Dash

2 Replies

We all live our lives the best that we can

Trying to leave some mark on the land

When our time is done and our life is at rest

Our bodies are laid in the ground

 

The graves are all marked with a stone of some kind

With some words written to keep through time

And the dates of the life of the person are there

Separated by a dash of a line

 

That dash is now sandwiched between birth and death

All of your life is wrapped up in it

What does that dash say about you?

That is the question we one day will get.

 

So let’s make a sandwich that touches our friends

That reaches beyond to incredible ends

Don’t let that dash just be a small line

Let it bring joy and peace through the land

I can see it in your eyes

That bright shining twinkle

That comes form knowing Jesus

 

Knowing His love

Knowing His joy

Knowing His peace

 

Knowing He has removed your sin

As far as the east is form the west.

Knowing He’s preparing a mansion for you

And your home is eternal in heaven

 

What a wonderful j]knowledge that is

It builds up inside us

And puts a twinkle in our eyes.

In Wonderland she walked

Trying to find her way

Alice wasn’t sure

If she really should stay

 

Then she saw a funny thing

A moon eclipse she thought it was

But when it was revealed

A Cheshire cat smile as the cause

 

The cat was full of joy

And funny little tricks

He made himself invisible

Except his smile and licks

 

As we go through this life of ours

It seems joy can be fleeting

But the joy of the Lord will never cease

It’s abundance is relieving

 

So make your joy be in the Lord

And not in earthly things

And you w ll see how it endures

When earthly joy is fleeing

Fruit For Life

1 Reply

Flooding up within my soul
Your Spirit comes to make me whole
Bringing with it fruit for life
Filling me with sheer delight

Joy unspeakable fills my heart
Overtakes all other parts
Fear no longer bothers me
Because His joy makes me complete

Peace that passes knowledge comes
Soothes my mind from what I’ve done
Worry ’bout the future gone
Now that peace has overcome

Patience, goodness, faith thrown in
Measured full from His blessing
I know He is in control
In His time all things will flow

Temperance, meekness,  gentleness
My life free from all my mess
Overcoming victory
That’s what His fruit brings to me

Over all His love abounds
Sets my feet on solid ground
Love that transcends everything
Washes over all my sin

Fruit for life this is to me
Giving me a life that’s free
Free from all of life’s dismay
Free to praise Him all my days

His Amazing Love

Higher than the mountains

Wider than the oceans

Deeper than the canyons

That’s His love for me

 

Purer than spring water

Makes us sons and daughters

Fills our heart with wonder

That’s His love for me

 

What amazing love He has for me

When He gave His life on Calvary

He left His royal throne

To come and die alone

All so I could be set free

 

Always sends His blessings

Joy that’s never ending

Fills me so my heart sings

That’s His love for me

 

Peace that calms my heart’s cry

Guides me safely through trials

His Spirit teaches me life

That’s His love for me

 

What amazing love He has for me

He rose from death and lives again

And one day He’ll return

To bring me home with Him

To a mansion He’s prepared just for me

 

What amazing love He has for me

I can only lift my voice and sing

Jesus is His name

I’ll give all my praise

Forever He will be my Lord and King

I heard God Calling

In a voice sweet and low

He said “Child, you are ready

It’s time that you go

You’ve studied and prayed

That the harvest would come

So go out today

And touch everyone.

 

Hope for despair

Joy for their sorrow

Peace in the storms

Through all their tomorrows

 

Deliver the captive

Give sight to the blind

Bind up the demons

And cast them aside

 

Cleansing for lepers

Words for the dumb

Strength for their weakness

Heal everyone

 

Faith for the doubters

Forgive all their sin

Calm down their minds

Bring solace within

 

On top of all that

Show mercy each day

Give them my love

Teach them my ways

 

And treat everyone

With unrestrained grace

Never be harsh

Fill them with praise

 

And when you have done

All the things I have said

Then people will listen

And souls will be saved”

Only in You

Only in you am I free, Lord

From all the sin in my life

You paid the price for my freedom

You became my sacrifice

 

Only in you is there peace, Lord

For my whole mind and soul

Even in times of trouble

You make my heart feel whole

 

Only in you is there joy, Lord

Not just a happy, cool place

You bring a blessing within me

That nobody can displace

 

Only in you is there love, Lord

Not just the lust of this world

You showed us your  compassion

And you taught us in your blessed Word

 

Only in you I reach heaven

You paved he way when you rose

Now I will live forever

Becuase it’s you I chose
