His Glorious Face 

In this world HIS Glorious Face we may not see
His Glorious Grace and Love are enough for me

HE is with me wherever I go
I can feel HIS presence this I know

Leaning on HIM gives me faith to endure 
I thank you, GOD, for being secure

As I draw closer to my goal 
I pray HE accepts my soul

I look forward to seeing HIS GLORIOUS FACE when I reach the end of this magnificent race

Difficult Times 

When our feeble minds start to fade
GOD remembers all the Prayers we’ve Prayed 

He continues to Hold Our Unsteady Hand
And watches over Us in This Foreign Land

Walking Every Day Closer by Our Side
Soon We'll go home with HIM to  Abide

One Day His Glorious Face We’ll See 
Falling to our knees, Shouting With Glee

Sing Praises Unto HIM 

Sing Praises Unto HIM
In the worst of times

GOD is forever listening 
 Helping in difficult times

For those that Love HIM and Praise HIS Name
HE’S there to rescue them from any shame

When the task is impossible, and there’s no way out
Sing praises unto him. Let HIM Hear You Shout

For there is nothing that GOD Can’t  Do
Feeling His LOVE, That is So True

Open My Heart 

Open my heart so that I might see
Your work being done in me

Open my heart so that I might see
Your SON JESUS more clearly in me

Open my heart so that I might see
How to better each day to serve THEE

Open my heart that I might reach out to my brother
That we might show more Love to each other

Open my heart so that I might see
How to increase my faith in THEE

Hard Times 

Looking back in time
Hard times were good times
Because JESUS was there all the time

He walked and talked with me
every day 
Molding me in his divine way

HE saved me and made me whole         And gave me Joy in my Soul

The bad comes with the good
So that we can make the decisions we should

If it were all good and there was no bad
There would be no decision to be had

For it’s only the right decision that we make
That will bring us joy for JESUS' sake

Memories of Yesteryear 

The memories of yesteryear linger in my mind
Giving me mixed feelings a lot of the time

 Happy Memories that linger the longest
They seem to be more vivid and the strongest

Mostly the love of my family through the years
And others that became so dear

There were good times and hard times as there will always be
But Faith in GOD always gave Strength to me

After all these years I rest with peace now
Thanking GOD that he found me somehow

The love that HE brought can’t be explained 
We can only bow our heads and thank him again and again

Why did I do that 

Did you ever wonder why did I do that
Oh if I could only change it like a Magician with his Hat 

Always remember GOD Knows Best
He already knew what you were going to do 
So don’t fret. HE still loves you

This is too much for our minds to comprehend 
We just have to leave it up to HIM in the very end

HE Loved us So Much, that HE sent HIS SON to Die for Us
For whatever decisions we would make
Would be forgiven in His Namesake

Oh GOD 

Oh GOD
Make the wind my chariot 
The Sun to light my path every day

The mountains to give me refuge
All along the way

Give me the meadow that I might rest
To renew my spirit for the quest 

Give me the oceans that I might see
The Majesty of GOD and what HE has done for me


Give me the night that I might sleep
That my soul you should keep

When my journey is over give me the Peace I need
That I might submit to your will to be freed

The Puzzle 

Did you ever wonder how your life is like a puzzle 
With pieces, only GOD knows  how to scuffle

You see GOD can change the pieces each day
So you will follow HIS Will along the way

This is too much for us to understand 
How GOD can keep us in HIS hand

HE sent HIS SON JESUS to die on the Cross
So that the pieces of our puzzle will never be lost

Such Great Love, we can’t understand 
We can only bow our heads and Thank HIM Again and Again

Time 

What is time here on earth
It’s the movement from our birth

We move so slowly as time passes by
Then we reach a point it seems to fly 

We can’t stop it no matter how hard we try
It will only end when we die

That’s when your Loving JESUS steps in 
And says come and live with me in eternity 

Your love will last from now on
Because GOD gave HIS Only SON
