Higher Ground 

Are you Marching on to Higher Ground
Are you satisfied staying here below

We may not know what lies ahead 
But we’ll understand the further we go

The closer we get to the Peak we anxiously await
To meet JESUS and Our Loved ones by the Eastern Gate

The fulfillment of HIS call is surely worth more than we could imagine 
When HE reveals to us those Glorious Heavenly Mansions

GOD Bless Us All 

Why does GOD Bless Us So much
We know it’s from HIS Touch

I don’t understand 
I think it’s just because He Can

We can’t do anything to make it Happen
We can only stand Amazed Before HIM
Thanking HIM for Filling Us to the Brim  

It’s HIS Will that be done in our lives
We have no choice in the matter 

Only to make our Souls available to HIM
To fill them up Again and Again

So we Bow and Thank HIM every Day
For what HE’S Done for Us along the Way 

Thank You, GOD, For Sending Your SON
So we Might All Live With You As ONE

The Surgeon 

I’m just a feeble Man
Striving to do the best I can

I work with all the knowledge I have obtained
And refine it with my experience again and again

But if the truth be known 
YOU are the one that guides my steady hand
YOU  give me calmness no Man can 

I pray each day you fill me up
With what it takes to complete each task
For what comes only from you will last

THE SPOT 

Painting by Spike O’Dell W4WGN Brentwood Tennessee
There was an old story in our family
Don’t know if it’s true or not

Great Grandpa Percy
Used his yard for a Bank
They said where he put it he forgot

Never thought much about it
Till I got down on my luck 

Then I prayed to GOD
He would show me the Spot

Red Bird

The Red Bird comes to visit 
He always seems so pleasant 

I’ve heard their Angels from above
Looking after us with their Love

A relative they might be
Looking in on us 
To see what they can see
  
Either way I stop and Pray 
I thank God for sending them my way
