The Fruit Of My Lips ~

May the fruit of my lips,
produce bountiful praise
to God for His faithfulness
and His wondrous ways.

May my lips create music,
generate songs to sing
making a joyful noise
honoring my eternal King.

May the fruit of my lips,
deliver my thankfulness
with hearty hallelujahs
showing my gratefulness.

May my lips dance about,
jump with joy and delight
expressing to the world
the hope found in His light.

May the fruit of my lips,
produce bountiful praise
may my gratitude to God
I never stop to raise!

“O Lord, open thou my lips;
and my mouth shall shew
forth thy praise.”

A New King ~

One day there will be,
on this earth a new King
and a new morality
He is going to bring.

Over all the universe,
He is going to reign
the depraved swamp
He is going to drain.

He will be the leader,
of every single land
for the whole world
He’ll hold in His hand.

There will be a river,
where living waters flow
the Truth, Life and Way
all the people will know.

There’ll be no obstacles,
that will stand in His way
for satan and his demons
souls will no longer sway.

One day there will be,
a new King on this earth
and the whole wide world
will witness its rebirth!

~~~~~~~~

Zechariah 14:9

And the Lord shall be king over
all the earth: in that day shall
there be one Lord, and his name one.

I Know God’s Name ~

I know God’s name
tis why I truly believe
by no other one
can salvation I receive.

For He is my Savior,
my Lord and my King
soon one day His peace
He is going to bring

I know God’s frame,
tis why I do so trust
for it is always good
righteous and just.

For He is my tower,
strong, high and mighty
tis why I don’t take . . .
things He says lightly.

I know God’s name,
it’s one like no other
tis why at its mention
in holy awe, I shudder!

~~~~~~~~

Proverbs 18:10

The name of the Lord
is a strong tower: the
righteous runneth
into it, and is safe.

Psalm 9:10

And they that know thy
name will put their trust
in thee: for thou, Lord,
hast not forsaken them
that seek thee.

#throwbackpoem ~ On This CHRISTmas Morn ~

A promise to the world,
a child to be given . . .
so many years foretold
so all could be forgiven.

Moonless night shining,
with the Morning Star
calling watchful shepherds
to come from afar.

Wise Men carry gifts,
meant for only a King
angels up in heaven
Glory ~ Glory ~ sing.

God became a man,
the Good News is born
begotten Son arrives
on this CHRISTmas morn.

Our mighty God concedes,
to the wickedness of man
the Prince of Peace comes
to bridge the empty span.

Wonderful is His name,
Counselor to the meek
the Son was born of flesh
to give power to the weak.

Our everlasting Father,
knows our fallen state
so He sent His only Son
to save us from our fate.

A promise to the world,
our Lord and Savior is born
sing ~ Praises to His Glory ~
on this CHRISTmas morn.

Isaiah 9:6

“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.”

If With Our Mouths?

If with our mouths we confess,
our faith in God above . . .
then why don’t we show others
unconditional love?

If with our mouths we declare,
Jesus is our salvation
then why with this world
do we still have a flirtation?

If with our mouths we admit,
we’ve been set free from sin
then why does Satan’s armies
still end up with the win?

If with our mouths we profess,
Jesus is the Lord of our life
then why do we still live
with discord, turmoil, and strife?

If with our mouths we assert,
we walk everyday with the Lord
then why in our hearts and minds
isn’t His Word carefully stored?

If with our own lips we worship,
and give honor to our King . . .
then why are we so detached
from the lyrics that we sing?

~~~~~~~~

Matthew 15.7-8

“Ye hypocrites,
well did Esaias prophesy of you,
saying, This people draweth nigh
unto me with their mouth,
and honoureth me with their lips;
but their heart is far from me.”

From Our Lips to God’s Ears ~

From our lips to God’s ears,
our praise for Him He hears
glorious, wonderful words of praise
from our lips to God’s ears.

The children of God rejoice,
they find delight in His name
for He is the everlasting Light
that keeps their hearts aflame.

Those who trust in the Lord,
raise up their voices and sing
they gather from all around
to worship and praise their King.

They clap their hands with joy,
and lift up their arms in praise
on their lips there is gratitude
for the Savior He has raised.

Their hearts are filled with His love,
they hold not on to their fears
glorious, wonderful words of praise
from our lips to God’s ears!
