Is He Coming for You?

Leave a reply

He’s coming soon.  He’s coming for me

Because I asked Jesus to save me

I bowed me head and made my plea

And that’s why Jesus is coming for me

 

When Jesus died so long ago

He died a death that all should know

Because on the cross He saved our souls

My sin has been washed white as snow

 

But there is something I must say

Ask forgiveness right this day

And then repent and turn away

And walk in His way every day

 

I must apply the blood of Christ

To all the old life left inside

And let His Spirit override

My past of loving fleshly life

 

And as I do He will transform

My life to His desired form

I’ll see a new and living swarm

Of God’s desire becomes my own

 

And then He can work out the plan

He had for me when He began

To transform me by His sweet hand

So I’ll become a Godly man

 

And as I live my life for Him

He promised I’ll forever live

In heaven, and I’ll walk with Him

For all of time His praises give

 

He’s coming soon.  He’s coming for me

Because I asked Jesus to save me

I bowed me head and made my plea

And that’s why Jesus is coming for me

 

Is He coming for you?

Are You Finished?

Are you finished telling me that you don’t want to hear

About the love of Jesus, the friend I love so dear?

How He died to take your place so that you won;t have to fear

Where you will up up for eternity?

 

Well, I’m sorry, but I really have to ignore your request

Because i am unfinished in showing how your blessed

So I will keep on planting seeds whenever I assess

That you need Jesus just as much as me

 

He died for you, and took your sin

He provided peace and joy within

And one day you can enter in

To heaven’s wondrous doors

 

So won’t you come to him today

And He will wipe your sin away

He’ll brighten up your darkest day

With His wondrous love

Crossing Over

7 Replies

I was drowning

A mountain of sin  encompassed me

And I had no way out

Then I heard about Jesus

And His love for me

And His sacrifice to take away

my sin

And I took the jump

From sinner to saint

From sorrow to joy

From turmoil to peace

From doubt to faith

From worry to hope

From guilty to forgiven

From Hell to Heaven

Crossing over was easy

Won’t you take the jump?

Born Again

1 Reply

I was born to be holy; I was born to be free

I was born to take part in His ministry

I was born when the spirit came in like a dove

I was born when I accepted God’s own son

 

Born again – He gave me new life

Born again – the old man must die

Born again – by the power of His hand

Praise the Lord, I’ve been born again

 

I was born to be righteous in Christ alone

I was born to live here but make heaven my home

I was born to praise Jesus with all of my heart

I was born to serve Him and to do my part

 

Not a day goes by that I don’t wonder why

The God of the Heavens would come here to die

When I think of the mercy and grace He displayed

I can’t help but worship His wonderful name

 

Born again – He gave me new life

Born again – the old man must die

Born again – by the power of His hand

Praise the Lord, I’ve been born again

In One Piece

My life was out of control

Sin abounded

Trouble lurked on every side

Emotions were fragile

Mind wandered endlessly

 

I felt as if I was falling apart

Piece by piece

 

But then

A friend

Introduced me to

His friend

Whose name us Jesus

 

He rook all my broken pieces

Put them together in His love

And now I feel whole again

 

One piece

I have peace

In Jesus

Once upon a time I was a sinner
Caught up in a world of shame
I didn’t have much hope
And I really couldn’t cope
With the fact that I just could not change

Then I heard about a man named Jesus
They said He was the only Son of God
Because of His great love
He came down from above 
And sacrificed His life upon a cross

They told me if I’d just accept His mercy
And ask Him to come in my heart
He’d wipe away my sin
And give me peace within
And I would have a brand new start

I cried out and I asked Him to forgive me
And told Him I would make Him Lord
And now I have new life
‘Cause Jesus made things right 
I’ll live hap’ly ever after evermore 

Precious Gifts

1 Reply

When I came to Jesus and asked Him to save

I knew I had little to give

He took what I had, and washed it away

And gave in return precious gifts

 

I gave Him my sorrows for all of the things

That I never seem to do right

He gave me His joy, unspeakable joy

Oh what a sheer delight

 

I gave Him my troubles, and many they were

They compass me every day

He gave me His peace, a peace so complete

Too wonderful to explain

 

I gave Him my doubts, and the fears in my life

They buried me in deep despair

He gave me His faith, so that mountains would move

If I’d call to Him in prayer

 

I gave Him my hurts, my aches and my pains

It seems they’re new every day

He gave me His healing, complete and secure

He heals me in every way

 

I gave Him my thoughts that the future was bleak

That nothing was there in the end

He gave me His hope, eternally sure

Now I know I will see Him again

 

I gave Him my life and my heart and my soul

It seemed I had messed them all up

He gave me salvation, and new life began

I’m free from all that can corrupt

 

These precious gifts, and so many more,

His mercy and grace has supplied

I just go to Him, and lay them all down

And He gives to me a new lfe.

Far From a Winner

It may seem irrational

Or even quite radical

That one man could make such a change

But I’m here to tell you

That this change is quite true

Through Jesus life was rearranged

 

From a dirty, ugly sinner

I was far from a winner

When I found out that He really loved me

I asked Him to come in

My life was cleansed from sin

And now I know He’ll meet all of my needs

 

So if you need a change

And life needs rearranged

Why don’t you cry to Jesus Christ today

He’ll gladly save your soul

And make your spirit Whole

Then guide you as you travel in His way

Wonder

3 Replies

I cannot help but wonder
How he came to love me so
And I cannot imagine
How his love I came to know

So is it any wonder
That I lift His name in praise
He’s more than I imagined
His worship fills my days

Oh how amazing is His love for me
He came to save me, and set me free
I am in awe of His sweet grace
I cannot wait to see His face

I cannot help but wonder
Why He left His throne above
And I cannot imagine
Why He’d die to show His love

So is it any wonder
That I give my life to Him
He’s more than I imagined
That is why His praise I sing

My wonderful redeemer will soon return for me

And take me home to heaven where His I’ll always be

All pain and sorrow He’ll erase and death will be no more

I cannot wait to see His face

The one that I adore

Oh how amazing is His love for me
He came to save me, and set me free
I am in awe of His sweet grace
I cannot wait to see His face
Oh how amazing is His great love for me
