Do you ever get down with nowhere to turn
Digging the hole deeper, the more you churn
Life is like quicksand in a way
Finding yourself on the wrong road today
Never judge yourself when you are down
You might judge from the perspective of a clown
Wait till the cloud passes and the sun shines through
The many bright colors God made just for you
We can’t stay in the valley all the time
The road to Paradise is a continuing climb
Climbing may be as important as the destination
Following the right guide will guarantee us a reservation

Sacrifice is giving what you cherish to another
Physically transferring your love to a brother
There is no explanation for love in action
True love is increasing great satisfaction
Whatever you have, large or small
Remember someone less fortunate
May have nothing at all

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
Thanking God, in my heart, Grace abounds
God's Loving Grace came to live in me
Changing my life has set me free
Thanking God for His divine intervention
His son, Jesus, gained my full attention

The Good Lord Knows I didn't did it
I don't think I did. If so, I've done quit it
Whatever I did, I shouldn't done it
I'll ask for forgiveness when I quit it
God is so good every day
He forgives me when I pray
So Lord knows I didn't did it
If I did, he’d ferget it

I have a compass that shows me the way
It keeps me on the right path, keeping me from harm's way.
I have a moral compass deep inside me
Paying attention to it will keep my soul free
Morality is based on the teaching I have had
Using what I have learned wisely will make me glad
Having done something I shouldn't
My moral compass is very prudent
The guilt I feel from performing a questionable task
Being judged by the truth deep inside, I dare not ask.
Bowing my head and thanking my God
For being so wonderfully blest

What's your story, and are you sticking to it
Everybody has a different story. If we only knew it
Some stories are good, and some stories are bad
Some stories make you feel happy, and some make you feel sad
Whatever your story, keep your eye on Jesus
Bow your head and thank God for the Love he has sent us

It’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas
The spirit of Love is in the air
Sleigh bells jingle in the snow
Just listen; your heart will begin to glow
All of us kids get so excited; I can hardly wait
The arrival of Santa, oh, I hope he isn’t late
Santa’s Love began in Bethlehem
Many years ago
With the Birth of God’s Son, Heavenly Love began to flow
Love conceived in many ways
Through God's son, we offer Praise
We bow our hearts and proclaim
Thank you, God, in Jesus' name

I met the Master Face To Face
Oh what Glorious Peaceful Grace
I met the Master Face to Face
Oh, how I could feel his sacrifice
I met the Master Face to Face
Oh, I have won the eternal race
I met the Master Face to Face
Giving Everlasting Life through Amazing Grace
What He did for me, He will do for you
Just Bow your head and ask Him to

Christmas is for children; That's always been the case.
Oh, how I can remember it made my tiny heart race?
The giving of gifts, the excellent food
How I remember the warm, loving mood
The Love of Jesus shines brighter than the Star of Bethlehem atop my Christmas Tree.
The real meaning of Christmas is the Christ that lives in me.
