Mercy To Me

Leave a reply

When I think of His mercy 
His wonderful mercy
I can’t help but lift up my voice
For it is His mercy
Magnificent mercy
That gives me great cause to rejoice

 

I was a sinner
A mess of a man
When mercy came calling to me
I heard His voice
And accepted His words
His mercy has now set me free

 

Mercy saved me
Mercy raised me 
Mercy gave me a brand-new life
Mercy healed me
Mercy sealed me
I’m a child of the King for all time

 

Now I have Jesus

Beside me each day

He guides me with His gentle hand

I call on His mercy

Whenever I fall

And He will restore me again

 

Mercy touched me
Mercy cleansed me

Mercy washed all my sins away
Mercy called me
Mercy loved me
And this love follows me every day

 

So, I sing of His mercy 
His wonderful mercy
I lift up my voice to His name
For it is His mercy
Magnificent mercy
That’s worthy of all my praise

 

Praise be to Jesus

Wonderful Jesus

The author of mercy is He

I worship you Jesus

Magnificent Jesus

You have shown mercy to me

 

What A Change!

Leave a reply

I have long been searching

For fulfillment in my life

As a child the toys and play would fit the bill

Then my friends would fill my life

But I always needed more

And I searched both in the dale and up the hill

 

I turned to drugs and alcohol

Thinking this would be the way

Girls were thrown into the mix quite often too

But the more I went that  way

The more I needed more

I just nver got enough to make me full

 

Then I met Jesus, and all that changed

Every need I had He did supply

His mercy forgave all my misgivings

And His grace has sated every thing inside

 

I  no longer need to search for my fulfillment

Because all that I need is in His love

If today your life is wandering, not sated

Then why not look to Jesus up above!

He Is Your Sacrifice

I can’t imagine heaven

Beyond what I can read

A paradise unlike

Any that I’ve ever seen

Prepared from the beginning

For those who find the way

And no one knows when Jesus

Will declare “This is the Day”

 

Way back in the beginning

The Father had a plan

He created all this earth

And then He made a man

But man’s seed became sinful

When he chose to disobey

And God chose Cherubim

To block our access to the way

 

Many centuries went by

Before a virgin heard the call

The Holy Ghost descended

And His seed produced a child

They named the child Jesus

He was born to save the world

He taught men of the Father

And healed them with His words

 

He was hated by the leaders

For the people all loved Him

So, the leaders of the day

Decided He they should condemn

They beat and crucified Him

As He hung His blood dripped down

Then He died before they killed Him

And they buried Him in the ground

 

Before He went He told us

That He was the Way

And that no one came to God

Unless they came through Him by prayer

His blood would cleanse their sins

And bring healing for disease

And because He rose again

He gave us life eternally

 

Those who have accepted Him

Will make heaven their home

We’ll dance upon the streets of gold

Never more to roam

If you have not accepted Him

And His wondrous gift of life

Any not ask Him in today

He is your sacrifice.

Life is full of ups and downs

And ins and outs

And all arounds

It can be so chaotic

We almost get psychotic

 

But Jesus changes evrything

The joy and peace I found

Keep my life real sound

He loves me oh so much

And I can feel His touch

 

Do you know Him and His grace

Do you know His love today

If not, dont wait

It’s not too late

Ask Him in your heart today

And bid chaos goodbye!

Are You Prepared?

This time of year is thrilling

As Christmas lights get lit

Anticipation fills the air

As Santa has his list

The children are all smiles

Awaiting the big day

It couldn’t come to fast

For they’re prepared to play

 

Much like the signs of Christmas

Are the signs of the end times

Calamity throughout the world

And loss of civil minds

The church awaits the coming day

With great anticipation

Are you prepared for Christ’s return

Do you have His salvation?

 

If not we can take care of that

Right now if you don’t mind

Just ask Jesus to forgive your sins

And make Him Lord of your life

Acknowledge that He died for you

And that he rose again

To give eternal life to you

Forever up in heaven

Changing Words

Leave a reply

I used to think sarcasm 

Didn’t matter much to most 

I use to use it every single day

But then I found my words 

Were hurting all my friends 

Like an arrow from a bow, a mark they made
Then one day I met Jesus 

And His gentle voice called out 

In a way that did elicit my response 

I knelt down on my knees 

And I asked Him in my heart 

 I knew my life was changed from that day on
The first thing my friends noticed 

Was the changing of my words 

The sarcasm and cursing was all gone

I told them I’d met Jesus

And you should do the same 

You’ll be glad you did your whole life long.

For Me

Leave a reply

This one thing I know.
Jesus loves me so
Died upon a tree
Just to set me free
Shed His precious blood
Just to show His love 
For me

 

I will give my life
All to Jesus Christ
His I’ll always be
For He’s done so much 
For me

 

How incredible
How amazing
How extraordinary is His love
I’m undeserving
Such a sinner
Yet His mercy reaches out to me
Great compassion 
Down from heaven
Grace will always be enough

For me

 

One more thing I know

One day I will go

Up into the air

He will meet me there

Never more to roam

He’s prepared a home

For me

 

How incredible
How amazing
How extraordinary is His love
I’m undeserving
Such a sinner
Yet His mercy reaches out to me
Great compassion 
Down from heaven
Grace will always be enough

Avoiding The Fire

I have to admit, I’m a sinner

I’ll never be perfect down here

Try hard as I can

I never will stand

As a sinless man, that’s for sure

 

But I made a choice long ago

To avoid being scorched for all time

I asked Jesus in

And He covered my sin

Now heavens my home for all time

 

I am sure that you don’t intend

To burn in hell when your life ends

Why not ask Him today

To take your sins away

And you can have peace in the end

Is It True About You?

3 Replies

Yes, in my youth I was vulgar

Ostentatious and loud

My life was a blur

Of drugs, booze and girls

And my words would make no one proud

 

But then I met Jesus, the Savior

And I asked Him into my heart

He set me free

From sins dread disease

And He gave me a brand new start

 

Now I sing praise to Him daily

My words are uplifting and true

I’m sober at last

And my wife is a blast

I sure hope this is true about you!

Yep, He Was Real

We’ve all heard stories from long ago

About people and creatures that just weren’t so

These made up tales

Were told to regale

And through time some believed what they told

 

But to say that Jesus was mythical

Is truly quite unethical

There’s plenty of proof

To make it a truth

That Jesus was real and methodical

 

He came to this earth as a sacrifice

And He lived to offer up His life

His blood set us free

From sins dread diisease

And He rose to give life for all time
