Waiting Till God Answers ~

When not sure of what to do,
and God hasn’t answered you
when you’re feeling down and out
and you’re full of fear and doubt.

That’s the time you need to look,
for His promises in the Good Book
you’ll find the remedy for your needs
when to His Word your spirit heeds.

When you’re troubles take over you,
and worry surrounds all you do
when you’re down and feeling sad
and your anxieties mount and add.

That’s the time you need to pray,
asking the Lord to lead the way
He will show you where to go
and His directions you will know.

When you need answered prayer,
be still as you wait to hear
for God promises with His eye
to make for you the way clear!

~ to GOD be the GLORY ~

The Sun On The Horizon ~

Give me the sun on the horizon,
a sherbet color morning sky above
give me a clear, cloudless, warm day
then you’ll know why with God I’m in love.

Give me the shade of a willow tree,
the Good Book for me to read
give me a sweet tea to sip on
and I will have close to all I need.

Give me a creek’s mesmerizing flow,
chirps coming from a robin’s nest
give me green pastures with my Lord
well now you can picture the rest.

Give me the sound of children playing,
the laughs and giggles of youth
give me the peace of a summer’s sigh
found around a lemonade booth.

Give me the soft breeze off the ocean,
the sun painting its dazzling set
give me the coolness of the moonlight
and I’ll be close to heaven as I can get.

Give me a day in the radiant Son shine,
let me bask in God’s glorious love
give me a warm summer day to reflect . . .
on the splendor God’s sends from above!

Until God Answers ~

When you don’t know what to do,
and His answers haven’t come to you
when you’re feeling down and out
and you’re anxious and full of doubt.

That’s the time you need to look,
for His promises in the Good Book
you’ll find the remedy for your needs
when to His Word your spirit heeds.

When your troubles take over you,
and worry surrounds all you do
when you’re down and feeling sad
and your fears just mount and add.

That’s the time you need to pray,
asking the Lord to lead the way
He’ll lead you down the right path
so His will for you, you will know.

 When waiting for answers to your prayers,
remember that God has all your cares
for He’ll never take His eyes off you
so trust in Him no matter what you do!

Where’s Your Peace?

Where is your gift of peace,
where do you keep it . . .
is it found in a bottle of booze
or that cigarette you just lit?

Where is your gift of peace,
how many pills does it take
how many drugs do you need
till you no longer shake?

Where is your gift of peace,
when will the violence end
when will you stop hurting
your family and your friends?

Where is your gift of peace,
how much longer will you look
to the world for the answers
and not in the Good Book?

Where is your gift of peace,
where do you keep it . . .
how much longer from God
will you keep your sin a secret?

Jesus, is the Prince of Peace,
He’s your strength in all things
but you must turn to Him . . .
and confess to Him everything.

Then you will find the calm,
of God’s eternal peace . . .
and from these worldly things
in Jesus, you will be released!

Isaiah 9:6
King James Version

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given:
and the government shall be upon his shoulder:
and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor,
The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.”

Seek ~

Seek and you shall find,
whenever you’re in doubt
turn to the Good Book
to find the answers out.

For in the Bible you’ll see,
what God wants of you
seek and you shall find
His light shining through.

Seek and you shall find,
love that is everlasting
when in uncertain times
all else is so contrasting.

Come to the throne of grace,
God is always the same
seek and you shall find
the power in His name.

Seek and you shall find,
the answers to your prayers
then find rest in knowing
Jesus has all your cares.

For Jesus came to save you,
from daily fear and strife
seek and you shall find
for yourself eternal life!

“And ye shall seek me,
and find me,
when ye shall search
for me with all your heart.”

Summer Lovin’ ~

Give me the sun on the hazy horizon,
the sherbet color morning sky above
give me a clear cloudless day
then you’ll know ~ why God I love.

Give me the shade of the golden willow,
the Good Book for me to read
give me something refreshing to drink in
and I’ll have close ~ to all I need.

Give me a creek’s memorizing humming,
chirps coming from a robin’s nest
give me a green pasture with my Lord
well ~ you can picture the rest.

Give me the sounds of children playing,
the laughs and giggles of youth
give me the peace of a summer’s sigh
when God reveals to me ~ another truth.

Give me the soft breeze of the ocean,
as I watch the sun paint its dazzling set
give me a cool night in the moonlight
and I’ll be as close to heaven ~ as I can get.

Give me a day in the radiant Son shine,
let me bask in God’s glorious love
give me a summer day to spend reflecting
on all the splendor ~ He sends from above!

My Bible is Like a Computer ~

My Bible is like a computer,
God is the Father board
where all His personal data
is backed up, saved and stored.

When I boot up the Good Book,
there’s a full menu bar to look at
a list of His commands pop up
so with God I can have a chat.

There are plenty of applications,
that I always have access to
I paste them to my clipboard
for future studying and review.

Each verse has it own control key,
that keeps me pressing on . . .
I sort them in my soul’s hard drive
and burn them on my heart’s CD ROM.

Sometimes my memory is short,
and I can’t remember a Scripture
so I launch my anti-verse program
to debug the fuzzy picture.

When I feel like I’m freezing up,
or when I’m feeling fragmented
I search for my favorite passages
to ensure a crash is prevented.

I still have a lot of virtual memory,
to download and file all I’ve learned
so I’ll install an anti-sin protector
to insure I don’t crash or burn.

My uninterruptible power source,
has its own surge suppressor
and I count on the Holy Bible
to be my anti-Christ protector.

My Bible is like a computer,
it has a powerful control panel
the Father, Son and Holy Spirit
is all my database will handle!
