The Car 

You can build a vehicle for your soul
Using the finest materials from GOD’S Gold

The interior is so plush and fine
The lighting is So Gentle and sublime 

The battery is charged with the Holy Spirit
It provides a Spark that is sure to start

The transmission is made of Humility
It is filled with the oil of Love and Grace

The power steering is so easy and smooth
It’s made of peace and kindness 

The cruise control
Is maintained by Self-Control

The breaks are made with Patience in mind
Slowly coming to a stop
Never running over the Kind

The ride is so Gentle
It’s like riding on a cloud of air
Making life so smooth and fair

The radio plays music all day long
Full of Joy, Faithfulness, and Generosity 

The Navigation System is JESUS CHRIST
HE will always keep you on the right path 

It runs on fuel that is powered by GOD
You will never run out if you listen to HIS word

You will be on your way
When you stick the key of Faith in the ignition 
And Pray

The real Joy comes when you see a friend that has stalled
You stop and jump-start him on his way
And He pays it forward during the day

Highway to Heaven 

Is there a Highway to Heaven
That we should be on

Is it a paved road so smooth and fair
Is it a road full of potholes and snares 

Is it a road that leads to GOD’S Throne 
Or a road that leaves you all alone

The road signs should direct where you should be
If only you would look at them and see

There is only one light to follow on the road above
That’s the light of JESUS sent from his father above

Angels Unaware 

Have You Ever Seen An Angel 
We're they a Friend or a Stranger

Were you scared or startled by the fact
Or did you even take time to React 

Was the Angel From GOD do You Think
Or another force that came in a blink

There’s only one real way to tell
Did You Feel GOD’S LOVE come in to dwell

Did it seem to be a Familiar Face
As you Ran Life’s Race

You see Angels can appear from Anywhere 
They might even be your Neighbor who cares 

What is Prayer 

Really, I don’t know what to say
It seems like we just keep asking for what’s on the way. 

We keep asking for Miracles that we Think We Need. 
When in Reality A Miracle is Only A Good Deed. 

We’re supposed to do the best with what we have, doing the best we can. 
Trusting the Rest to GOD’S Great Plan.
