The Color Of Things Coming ~

I watch Fall’s colored leaves,
turn from red to golden brown
drifting on the breeze of Autumn
floating idly to the ground.

They lay in all their splendor,
till rake piles them knee-high
for eye to see and foot to crush
before they wither away and die.

Fall reminds me of the colors,
of the things forthcoming . . .
when Jesus with a trump
declares He is returning.

His eyes will see those waiting,
eagerly for His return
while He crushes under foot
those who gave Him no concern.

As I watch Fall’s colored leaves,
turn from red to golden brown
I pray everyday I can turn . . .
just one sinner’s heart around!

~~~~~~~~~~

Matthew 13:30

Let both grow together until
the harvest: and in the time
of harvest I will say to the reapers,
Gather ye together first the tares,
and bind them in bundles to burn
them: but gather the wheat into my barn.

Hebrews 9:28

So Christ was once offered to bear
the sins of many; and unto them
that look for him shall he appear
the second time without sin
unto salvation.

The Lion and The Lamb ~

 

One day Judah’s Lion,
will break open seven seals
one day the wrath of God
He will at long last reveal.

One day the Lamb of God,
from each scroll will read
for worthy is He . . .
who was crucified on a tree.

One day Judah’s Lion,
will be crown King of Kings
one day the world will know
the peace that He brings.

One day God’s precious Lamb,
who died for the sins of mankind
will return to conquer Satan
and his enemies for the last time.

One day the Lion of Judah,
God’s sacrificial Lamb once slain
will from heaven’s glorious throne . . .
the whole world will ~ forever reign!

~~~~~~~

Revelation 5:5-7

And one of the elders saith unto me,
Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe
of Judah, the Root of David, hath
prevailed to open the book, and to
loose the seven seals thereof.

And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst
of the throne and of the four beasts,
and in the midst of the elders,
stood a Lamb as it had been slain,
having seven horns and seven eyes,
which are the seven Spirits of God
sent forth into all the earth.

And he came and took the book out
of the right hand of him that sat
upon the throne.

If the Lord Should Tarry ~

If the Lord should tarry,
and I should see another day
I’ll continue to press on
as I travel the narrow way.

If I have to remain,
on this earth a while longer
my faith in Jesus . . .
will only just get stronger.

If I have to wait,
until the Lord comes for me
my hope will see me through
until the day with Him I’ll be.

If I have to linger,
and I’m given here more time
I’ll keep on trusting Jesus
as obstacles I climb.

If the Lord should tarry,
and I remain here another day
I’ll be waiting right here . . .
till with Him ~ He takes me away!

~~~~~~~~~~

Hebrews 10:37-38a

“For yet a little while,
and he that shall come will come,
and will not tarry.
Now the just shall live by faith:
but if any man draw back,
my soul shall have no
pleasure in him.

John 10:27

My sheep hear my voice,
and I know them,
and they follow me:

God Keeps His Promises ~

God keeps His promises,
His Word never fails
His promises He keeps
right down to the details.

Promises of new life,
that His Son brings
promises of hope
to work out all things.

Promises of comfort,
when trails we face
promises of new mercy
and sufficient grace.

Promises of blessings,
of every spiritual kind
promises of His peace
to guard heart and mind.

Promises to finish,
all that He has begun
promises of salvation
through the gift of His Son.

God keeps His promises,
they are solid as a Rock
He promises us Jesus . . .
will return for His flock!

~~~~~~~~~~

Hebrews 10:23

Let us hold fast the profession
of our faith without wavering;
for he is faithful that promised;

Life In The Pasture ~

Life in the pasture,
isn’t always green . . .
for nothing appears
always as it seems.

Though the grass is soft,
underneath my feet
often with a dry patch
my footsteps still meet.

That is why I pray,
for Jesus to lead me
around the rough patches
before them I even see.

For He is my Shepherd,
who I trust avidly
to be my guide be it
victory or tragedy.

Life in the pasture,
isn’t always green
but when Jesus returns . . .
is will be pristine!

~~~~~~~

Psalm 23:1-2

The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down
in green pastures: he leadeth
me beside the still waters.

Great Expectations ~

Great is my expectation,
Jesus will soon return
vehement is my hope
from this world I’ll adjourn.

Great is my anticipation,
with the saints I will be
robust is my soul’s desire
a twinkling I’ll soon see.

Great is my determination,
to be sober and diligent
confident is my belief
Jesus’ return is imminent.

Great is my excitement,
I’ll hear the trumpet blow
intense is my eagerness
when He calls me to go.

Great is my expectation,
Jesus will soon reappear
great is my prospect . . .
in the clouds we’ll disappear!

Matthew 24:27

For as the lightning cometh out
of the east, and shineth even
unto the west; so shall also
the coming of the Son of man be.

When At Last Jesus Returns ~

When at last Jesus returns,
He’ll bring with Him all the angels
up to the clouds He will call
the saints throughout the ages.

There’ll be a reuniting,
of all His sleeping saints
from the grave their bodies
and souls will reacquaint.

When at last Jesus returns,
there’ll be a loud command
the sounding of a trumpet
will be heard across the land.

Those who’ve been waiting,
will join their Savior in the air
as soon as they hear . . . .
the trumpet’s final warning blare.

When at last Jesus returns,
to paradise with Him we’ll go
where bliss and peace eternally
will gloriously forever flow!

~~~~~~

1 Corinthians 15:52

In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye,
at the last trump: for the trumpet shall
sound, and the dead shall be raised
incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

These Final Days ~

Fill us with hope Lord,
in these final days
keep us from following
the world’s wicked ways.

Fill us with trust Lord,
as the end draws near
keep our minds sober
our consciences clear.

Fill us with faith Lord,
in these perilous times
keeps our hearts pure
our souls fit and prime.

Fill us with peace Lord,
as Your return we await
keep our steps heading
towards the narrow gate.

Keep filling us Lord,
with hope, faith, peace and trust
keep our love for You . . .
till the end strong and robust!

~~~~~~

Timothy 3:1-7

This know also, that in the last
days perilous times shall come.

For men shall be lovers of their
own selves, covetous, boasters,
proud, blasphemers, disobedient
to parents, unthankful, unholy,

Without natural affection, trucebreakers,
false accusers, incontinent, fierce,
despisers of those that are good,

Traitors, heady, highminded,
lovers of pleasures more than
lovers of God;

Having a form of godliness,
but denying the power thereof:
from such turn away.

For of this sort are they which
creep into houses, and lead c
aptive silly women laden with sins,
led away with divers lusts,

Ever learning, and never able to
come to the knowledge of the truth.

Perhaps Today My Lord Will Come ~

Perhaps today . . .
my Lord will come
perhaps today I’ll see
my Lord on the clouds
coming down for me.

Perhaps today . . .
my Lord will call
perhaps today I’ll hear
the sound of His trumpet
telling me He is here.

Perhaps today . . .
my Lord will show
perhaps today I’ll catch
that twinkling in my eyes
and be taken in a snatch.

Perhaps today . . .
my Lord will arrive
perhaps today I’ll leave
with my Savior to paradise
along with all who believe.

Perhaps today . . .
my Lord will come
perhaps today I’ll be
forever in peace with Him
in the bliss of eternity!

Matthew 24:30

“And then shall appear the sign
of the Son of man in heaven:
and then shall all the tribes
of the earth mourn, and they

of an eye, at the last trump:
