I used to never be careful

About what I said or did

I just had fun and I partied

And most of my life was hid

But then I made Jesus my Savior

And He asked much more of me

He asked me to be His disciple

And live a life for His glory

So I put aside all of the parties

And I watched every word that I said

I wanted to glorify Jesus

And not bring reproach to His name

Now I know it’s hard to be perfect

In all that we say and do

So I will proceed with caution

As I witness to all the world

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

Have You Seen the Lord?

2 Replies

Have you seen the Lord today?

Looked in His eyes?

Have you walked down His street?

Have you stopped to say Hi?

There was that beggar who asked you for bread

You walked on by, hanging your head

You had the money to spare him a dime

But you did not want to take the time

You passed by a lame man trying to walk

Your spirit said help him, but the flesh just balked

You watched as he fell and tried to get up

But you did not want to stay and get stuck

Then there’s that girl who asked you the time

She said she was late, but you drove on by

You were going her way with plenty of room

But you were afraid she would do harm to you

Have you seen the Lord today?

Looked in His eyes?

Have you walked down His street?

Have you stopped to say Hi?

Jesus said even when I do it for them

It is the same as I’d done it for Him

If I’d look in their eyes, I’d see my Lord

As He asks me to help His floundering child

When will I learn to reach out in faith

And help those in need when they pass by my way

God showed me His mercy when I was so lost

Now I must reach out and help His dear cause

Every day we’d see the Lord if we’d look

Every day we can do what he says in His book

Every day we can show grace to meet needs

Every day we must reach out and believe

Have you seen the Lord today?

Looked in His eyes?

Have you walked down His street?

Have you stopped to say Hi?

Now I Can See

I can see, I can see said the blind man

As he wiped the mud out of His eyes

He’d been touched by a man whom he did not know

And His sight was now fully realized

He cried where is the man who touched me?

Jesus came up and stood by him

He said I am the one who brought back your sight

Will you now give witness to me?

The man looked at Jesus and smiled

He said surely I’ll ell the whole world

Because I was just blind and now I can see

Just help me to speak the right words

Jesus told him to just tell his story

Of how he’d received his sight

And the man went his way as a witness for Christ

Sharing with all of his might.

Go

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”

Tell Them

Today the Lord was calling in a voice so sweet and low

He said “Son, there’s something special that everyone should know.

It’s really not a secret. It’s written in my book.

But there are way too many who never take a look.”

I asked the Lord how I could help to get to everyone

This world is so enormous. I’d never get it done

He said “My child it’s simple, just start with that one there

And one by one you will surely make this world aware.

So I said “I’ll do it Lord, I’ll take your message out

I’ll speak it in the marketplace. I’ll travel all about.

Just let me know the words that I should share today”

And then I heard His gentle voice say

“Tell them I love them with an everlasting love

Tell them I love them, and I want them here above

I sent my Son to take their place

They’re covered by my endless grace

Tell them I love them, and that should be enough”

I said “My Lord, I know it’s true that you have love for me

This world is very skeptical because of what they see

The violence and suff’ring seem to get worse every day

There’s many who blame you for this – then what should I say.”

“Tell them I love them with an everlasting love

Tell them I love them, and I want them here above

I sent my Son to take their place

They’re covered by my endless grace

Tell them I love them, and that should be enough”

And then He whispered in my ear that many just don’t know

Because we’ve turned our churches into places for a show

The truth that they must make the choice of heaven or of hell

Is something that few preachers are still willing to tell

He said “I need the laborers to get out in the field

The harvest is awaiting, and they need someone real

To tell them of this love I have for every single one

I’ve done all that I can do – I sent my only Son”

Okay, I got the message Lord, the gospel is enough

I’ll go out into all the world and tell them of your love

That Jesus died to take our sins and wash them all away

That message is more powerful than any words I say

I’ll tell them that you love them with an everlasting love

I’ll tell them that you love them, and you want them up above

You sent your Son to take their place

They’re covered by your endless grace

I’ll tell them that you love them, and that should be enough”

Life is Not a Game

We hear familiar music on the TV every day

Of a game show that so many love to play

People wager what they’ve won as they try to guess the clues

And every time they answer they’re in jeopordy to lose

It’s fun to play along on this trivial pursuit

In fact the board games really are a hoot

Simple fun can be a way to come together with your friends

And create a bond that opens up a door to let you in

So take advantage of those times when gathering together

And find out if their lives are jeopardized forever

Or if they have met Jesus and are now bound up for heaven

Please don’t let that moment pass you by.
