Free as a Bird 

Free as a bird that’s how I feel today 
Oh the freedom I feel can’t be explained away 

Freedom to Worship Freedom to pray
Freedom to do all good things today

True Freedom comes from GOD above
That’s the only place to find true love

Worldly love only lasts for a short span of time
That’s why we should rely on GODS LOVE all the time

In the Arms of JESUS 

When I Pray by night and day
I feel Safe In the Arms of Jesus

When I walk with HIM night and day
I feel safe in the Arms of JESUS

When I’m tired and weary and lay my head down to sleep
I feel safe in the Arms of JESUS

When I wake up alert and ready for the day
I feel safe in the Arms of JESUS

When I grow old and feeble 
I feel safe in the Arms of JESUS 

When I walk through the Valley of Death
I feel safe in the Arms of JESUS

When I reach That Golden Shore 
I will be safe in the Arms of Jesus
Resting there Forevermore 

Ivory Towers

Kings sit in Ivory Towers toiling away
While the peasants in the field work hard every day

Getting no recognition for the work they do
If only someone knew, their spirits it would renew

One day news comes to leave their peaceful fields
To take up arms with their spear and shield

Not knowing where they are going or the reason why
They march from their peaceful fields only to die 

It does not seem anyone should have such power
To send some to die in such a black hour

Satan 

The identity of Satan is most difficult to see
He is the artificial light blinding the truth to you and me

Satan roams the world looking for empty souls to fill
Giving Eternal damnation to those who do not resist his Will

Do not become disheartened my dear friend
He has been overcome by JESUS,  who will walk with you through the end

Put the LOVE of GOD Through HIS SON JESUS in your heart today

There will be no more room for the evil one to stay

 A Stranger

A Stranger knocketh at the door for me
I am afraid to answer his knock I plea 
Letting him in could change my life
Letting him in could bring much strife 

I jarred the door to see what I might see 
Oh the Glory that my eyes beheld In front of me

That STRANGER was sent from GOD above. 
To fill my lonely Heart with HIS LOVE

So if a stranger you should meet
Take a closer look before you retreat 
He may be sent from GOD Above
To fill your empty life with HIS love

Taming the Horse 

The Human is the hardest horse to tame
 Many reasons,  most of which bring us shame

Blinders help, keeping us from looking astray
A bit in the mouth keeps us straightaway 

A whip, once in a while will urge us on
Sharp prickly spurs, help make our evil thoughts gone

Still not tamed, for I am truly strong-willed
Only GOD can tame us through HIS perfect will

Four Paws Up 

When I go Four Paws Up
I can’t wait to give it up 

I will glide into Heaven 
On that Ole Steam Engine # 7

My hand has been on the throttle 
And my eye upon the rail 

So my run could be made successful 
So that we may never fail

When I meet My Dear Loving Savior
I will praise him for evermore

Resting in his Wondrous Glory
Forever and Forever to Adore
