He Endured For Me

It was not a pretty sight

In Jerusalem  that day

As they bludgeoned my Jesus

With cat-o-nine tails

 

Blood all around

Crown of thorrns on  His  head

Then up to Golgotha

Nails in His feet and hands

 

He endured it all

To wash away my sin

From the cross He cried out

Father forgive them

 

And the Father looked down

And saw His one Son

Ands forgave every sin

For all who choose Him

I can’t imagine what it took

For God to give His Son

No other god would even think 

Of what our God has done 

He didn’t copycat His plan

To set the captive free 

He planned it from the very start

To save a wretch like me.

Copycat

Down with the Giant

David was a teenager

When he faced the giant

Goliath had a victors laugh

But David brought him down

 

The giant in our lives is sin

We’ve no way to defeat it

But Jesus paid the price for us

The giant’s been defeated

 

Today take Jesus as your Lord

And He will be your Savior

The giants in your life will fall

Before His mighty name

Crossing the Great Divide

There’s a great divide between God and man

The gulf is large and deep

It’s been in place since Adam ‘s day

It’s way the angels keep

 

When Jesus died upon that cross

He paid the price for sin

And He became the crossing bridge

For all of us to win

 

The only way to God you see

Is Jesus Christ today

So come and take Him as your Lord

And He’ll show you the way

Merciful Savior

When I begin to think about

What Jesus did for me

I always must remember

The day He set me free

 

My sins were overwhelming

I couldn’t find my way

I tried so many other things

That just led me astray

 

But Jesus said He’d rescue me

From the depths of sin

I needed to escape my past

And find some peace within

 

Oh, what a merciful Savior

Oh, what grace divine

Jesus is my answer

Jesus now is mine

 

So I sat down and prayed a prayer

And asked Him in my heart

There was no doubt He touched me

As I felt Him from the start

 

From that day on He stayed with me

I grew in His embrace

And now I trust Him every day

To cover me with grace

 

My heart shouts out His praises

As I lift my voice in song

He’s all I ever needed

With Him I can’t go wrong

 

Oh, what a merciful Savior

Oh, what grace divine

Jesus is my answer

Jesus now is mine

The Fog Lifted

I used to live life in a fog

My mind was always cloudy

And smoke swirled ’round my head all day

My life was kind of rowdy.

 

But then I met my Savior

Jesus is His name

The fog lifted

Life was changed

i’ll never be the same

 

Now I’m free from sin and shame

I have reason to live

I’m free at last

From troublled past

My praise to Him I give

 

 

In response to the daily prompt Smoke

Now I’m Weclome

There was a time that I was not welcome

Banned is a better word

 

I had not accepted criteria

For eternity with the Lord

But then I asked His forgiveness

For all of of the  sins of my past

And He washed me whiter than whitest snw

And said enter into my rest

Now I’m not banned any longer

I’m welcome for all of time

I sure hope that you know the Savior

So you can share in my rhyme

From Lost to Found

Changes come and changes go

You never know what’s next

Hairstyles, fashion, colored toes

It’s hard to know what’s best

But all these changes just don’t last

They make no difference

And when the change has come to pass

Most people could care less

I know one change that is for real

A brilliant transformation

For when I came to Jesus Christ

He gave me Salvation

My life was changed in every way

His Word becamse my ration

As I applired it to my life

It gave me inspiration

From weak I now became strong

From poor He filled me up

I  was a sinner, shame throughout

He cleaned my inner cup

My life was bound for hell that day

But now I’m heaven bound

The transformation Jesus brought

Chnaged me from kost to found
