Did you ever take a risk and immediately swet pop out on your brow
You wondered why I did that. I should have never made that vow
A risk-based solely on physical things you can see
It is a risky decision. Divine intervention will set you free
It's not a risk if you have prayed and feel good inside
For there are no risks with God walking by your side

He noticed when I was in my room crying all alone
He noticed at school when my heart turned to stone
He noticed when I went with my friends to the bar that night
He noticed my fowl language and that I got into a nasty fight
He was watching me all this time
I had no clue I didn’t give a dime
Then one day my head spun around when a drunk driver ran me down
I didn’t have time to think or repent
I noticed a face that was Heaven sent
When I awoke a different person was I
Noticing Him out of the corner of my eye

In autumn's embrace, the world transforms,
With hues of gold and red, nature performs.
A symphony of colors, a painter's delight,
In fall's gentle embrace, everything feels right.
Leaves flutter down like confetti from the trees,
Carried by the breeze, dancing with ease.
The air is filled with fragrances so sweet,
Crisp apples, pumpkin spice, a cozy retreat.
As daylight wanes, the firelight glows,
In the hearth's warm embrace, stories compose.
Fall's magic whispers in every cool night,
A season of wonder, a pure delight.
So let's savor this moment, let's take it all in,
For fall is a treasure, where memories begin.
With colors and aromas that fill the air,
In this wonderful season, we find joy everywhere.

Keep on keeping on. One foot in front of the other.
Through faith in God you will make it my brother
No matter where you find yourself in this old world
Faith will protect you from the darts being hurled
Put on the Armor of God that you may be protected
From the devils demented thoughts of rejection
Jesus will walk with you through the flames of fire in your life
Not having a burned hair on your head
Dividing good from evil like a sharp knife

What is it I need? Everything that needs to be.
Everything that my life and heart desires for me.
Is there something out there that will fulfill all my desires?
Always looking for the Faith and hope my soul requires.
It is all wrapped up into one name I must say.
I found it in the Name of Jesus when I begun to pray.

In life's grand tapestry, we weave our deeds,
Seeking purpose, chasing dreams, and planting seeds.
Accomplishments and triumphs, we may amass,
But when the final moment dawns, we see, alas,
The greatest story ever told, in humble grace,
Of Jesus, who suffered and rose, His saving embrace.
For nothing in this world, no laurels we've won,
Can compare to the gift of God's beloved Son.
He bore our burdens, our sins, and our strife,
Offered redemption, the promise of eternal life.
In the grandest symphony of history, we find our place,
Through Jesus Christ, God's love and saving grace.
So let us, in our communities, with hearts unfurled,
Share the greatest gift, the hope of the world.
In our circle of friends, in our own special way,
Spread the message of salvation, day by day.

Where there’s a Will there’s a way
That’s what I’ve heard people say
Finding my will is difficult most days
Leaving me lost in a dense foggy haze
Clearing my mind and calming my soul
Will lead in the direction of self control
At last I have found my Will I must say
Just over the horizon I will find my way

Oh Lord, let my heart's fire blaze,
For Your love, my soul does raise.
In Your light, I seek to learn,
To cleanse my heart, for You I yearn.
Replace my guile and frailties, I pray,
With love, mercy, and guidance each day.
By the Holy Spirit, let me be led,
To walk the path Your word has spread.
In this burning heart, a fervent desire,
To be closer to You, to aim even higher.
With each beat, let Your presence ignite,
A love that shines forever bright.

Which bus do I find myself on these days
Is it a bus of understanding a bus of Praise
The old bus picks me up every morning
To take me to my destination
After a day of hard work I board returning home with no hesitation
It’s not the bus that makes my life it’s what’s in my heart that brings love or strife
The old bus just takes me where I need to go
It is left up to me to find what my heart should know

The time is coming when no one will be found
To be the Great President of our great land
Each party scrutinizes the other
Only finding fault with one another
When will this end? One must say
It seems the future is not far away
