All My Praise

Sing His Praise
Shout it out
Let the whole world know
Jesus Christ
Is Lord of all
His story must be told

He’s the King
Of all Kings
His glory fills the sky
Lord of Lords
Emmanuel
With us all the time

Beautiful
Creator
Lover of all men
Wonderful
Great Counselor
Savior to the end

He is Holy
Lord Almighty
Mighty Prince if peace
Rock of Ages
Lion of Judah
Filling all our needs

I will lift
My voice and sing
Glory to His name
I worship Him
With all ne heart
And give Him all my praise.

 

Which Will You Choose?

It’s an easy life

To just eat cake

Sit back and take it easy

But in the end

You’ll be alone

And hell will make you queasy

 

The harder road

Is sacrifice

A life that’s lived for Christ

But in the end

Heaven will win

You’ll enjoy eternal life

 

And when in Christ

The blessings far

Outweigh the price you pay

The cake you eat

While serving Christ

Gets sweeter every day

Alices Cat

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

A.S.K.

When I’ve lost my direction
In this crazy old world
I’m reluctant to ask for some help
I think it’s a reflection
That I’m not self-assured
And it makes me feel very inept

But I can’t have this attitude
In my walk with the Lord
When I find I am losing my way
I will have more gratitude
If i look to His word
And find how He tells me to pray

He says first I must ask Him
When I’ve come to stray
Whether knowledge or wisdom I need
And He says that He’ll give
And show me the way
To find the next step in my plea

Next is to seek out
His will for my life
In the situation I’ve fallen in
Then I can figure out
The escape from my strife
And find the path destined to win

Last I must knock
At the door I come to
It shall open to me on its own
The door is unlocked
And it opens to view
The answer that He will make known

Now all that sounds simple
And easy to do
But there’s one trick you need to remember
The asking and seeking
And knocking you do
Must be done ’til you’re led to the answer

He always leads to the answer

He always answers your plea
It’s the waiting and watching that’s hard to do
So ask ’til your heart is set free
And seek ’til you see
And knock “til you reach the door.

Sharing Grace

My hometown is real pretty

With streets set up in squares

And it’s easy to walk through

With sidewalks everywhere

 

I kius happened to be walking

Down a sidewalk yesterday

When I meet a man that limped

And was obviously in pain

 

I asked if I could pray for Him

That God would Heal his leg

He told me that would be great

So I took His hand and prayed

 

I saw a tear come down his face

As I finished up my words

He said thank you so  very much

I know your prayer was heard

 

We went out on our merry way

A smile broke on our face

A joy filled up my peaceful heart

I was glad I shared His grace

That Precious Name

Precious are you Lord, precious to me

More precious than silver, or gold or rubies

Dearer to me than anything

Precious are you Lord

 

Holy are you Lord, Holy indeed

Purer than anything this world can bring

Loving and Justin all your decrees

Holy are you Lord

 

So I will shout from the mountaintop

Praise the name of Jesus

I will sing with all I’ve got

Praise the name of Jesus

Worthy of my worship

Worthy of my heart

Praise the name, the precious name of Jesus

 

Merciful are you, my merciful Lord

Your mercy has reached out and pardoned me

From all of my sin and all my disease

Merciful are you Lord

 

Gracious are you Lord, gracious to me

Your grace extended to Calvary

You give more than I deserve unto me

Gracious are you Lord

 

He never stops loving me, never stops healing me

Never stops leading me through this earthly life

Never leaves me lonely, never strays away

He’s always right here by my side

And He has a plan for me, a plan to prosper me

I will trust Him always.  My life in in His hand

Even through the trials, even through the tests

I will rest in Him each day, my peace is His command

 

So I will shout from the mountaintop

Praise the name of Jesus

I will sing with all I’ve got

Praise the name of Jesus

Worthy of my worship

Worthy of my heart

Praise the name, the precious name of Jesus

Heaven’s Song

It’s a song for the ages

Sung in heaven above

The angels sing it boldly

Telling of God’s love

 

The melody is beautiful

The chorus fills the skies

Cherubim and seraphim

Sing it as they fly

 

His love is so amazing

His love is so divine

It reaches down from heaven

And touches you and I

 

In response to the daily prompt Melody

His Mercy

His mercy is powerful

Reaching down to me

Cleansing all my sin

And setting me free

 

His mercy is majestic

Soaring ‘bove the clouds

Placing all the stars

So they speak aloud

 

His mercy is much higher

Than anything I know

It fills up all of heaven

And all of earth below

 

His mercy is much richer

Than our diamonds or gold

It never runs out

And it never grows old

 

His mercy is purer

Than mountain streams that flow

It never fails to comfort

And His peace it will bestow

 

His mercy is enough today

To meet all of my needs

So I will give my praise to Him

Because He first loved me

It’s Coming Soon

It’s summer time now and it’s warm

But that will soon fade away

And the cool breeze of autumn will come

And the sun will shorten the day

 

Then winter will surely set in

And the cold north wind will come

Sending a shiver all over me

As I huddle and try to keep warm

 

But there is another shiver

That has me much more concerned

It’s the shiver of fright that people will feel

When Jesus our Lord will return

 

When the saints are all gathered together

And those left behind realize

That they are now in tribulation

As was promised in years gone by

 

If you have not met my Jesus

Now is the time to be saved

You too can avoid the shiver

That will come on that fateful day
