Where He leads me I must follow, Follow Him where’er He goes, Through the mountains, through the valleys, Where that is, He only knows. Walking with me ev’ry hour, Gently guiding me each day, Teaching me to always listen When He speaks, and shows the way. It may be to show some kindness To...

Storm clouds gather. Though they may, I’ll choose not to be dismayed. Trust in my Lord, what He says. “Fear not” future. Fret is dead. Hope has conquered. Peace subdues. Lies of Satan, truth out rules. Nothing life can throw at me Escapes Jesus’ sympathy. God of comfort, Lord of love, Never...

When miracles don’t happen Exactly when we hoped, And things go on as normal; We don’t know how to cope; When troubles, disappointments, Are foll’wing us around, And sadness starts to linger, And gladness turns to frowns; When all the world around us Is turning upside down, And honesty is...

Are you wounded, tattered and torn? You’re forgotten, grieved and forlorn? Needing answers? Troubles in mind? Hope’s allusions hardly to find? Truth escaping? Liars abound? Men betraying? Honor not found? Hope’s not empty. Honesty here. There’s an answer, which is quite clear. Jesus loves...

The question is not, “Is God able?” For our Bible’s not a fable. The question then is “Are you willing To surrender? Your life giving?” When Jesus gave His life up for us, Died on that cross, so He’d free us. So He, in His death, conquered our sin So that we might walk in freedom. So, there’s...

To love like You, Lord, That is what I desire; To live like Jesus, And let His words inspire; To let His Spirit Fill up my life with grace; To care for others Who I meet face to face; To show compassion For all who live in sin, Showing them the way To living in freedom; My life to give them...

The mountains declare the praises of God, Their beauty proclaims His glory. The sky and the clouds, the stars up above Give evidence of His story. The sun, as it shines, His radiance shows. The tree tops proclaim His kingdom. The colors of all His beauty shine forth. Creation declares His...

When hard times come, And the waves crash in, And all’s unsettled By the circumstance, Then trust your Lord And His faithfulness. For He gives vict’ry Over sin’s darkness. So, have no fear, Then, of what may come. For God is sovereign Over all kingdoms. He freely gives What no man can take...

The Lord, The Lord, He is my light. He’s the Rock of my salvation. In Him I trust. The Lord, The Lord, He is my strength. He’s my hope and He’s my comfort. In Him I rest. The Lord, The Lord, He is my song; My delight I now find in Him. To Him belong. The Lord, The Lord, He is the truth. He’s...

Time is ticking, running out. Where is your faith? Do you doubt? What’s your practice? Where’s your life? Who’s your idol for tonight? Making noises, sing your songs. Blow your trumpets. Clang your gongs. Throw your parties. Chat with friends. Entertainment never ends. Love pursuing. Never...

You say one thing, but you do another. You say you’re pure, but have another lover. Your talk is cheap and your walk is failing. You’re not sincere, so you can stop your railing. You play your games, and your lips do conquer. You may fool some, but I have got your number. You plead your...

Eyes to see and ears to hear, Jesus, keep me ever near. Help me walk with You each day, Read Your Word, and daily pray. May I listen, Lord, to You. Do what You say; follow through. May I always persevere, As, to Your truths, I adhere. May I have the mind of Christ, Have His passion through my...

I pray to the Lord when thoughts trouble my mind. I put my trust in Him. Then, peace I do find. I have no control over what others do. They all have the freedom to others subdue. It pains me to watch how some lie and they trick. Their plans are so sneaky. Their words are so slick. They hate...

Based off Isaiah 53 Who has believed our message? To whom has our Lord been revealed? He had no beauty or majesty; His looks, to none did appeal. He was despised, rejected. A man of much suff’ring and pain, From whom people have hid their faces, then looked on Him with disdain. Surely He took...

Do you ever feel an overwhelming sadness? All around you seems then to be so much pain. Sin has run amok within the walls of churches. For the gospel truth, there is so much disdain. Men in pulpits hiding sins behind the curtain, Making jokes about the sacred things of God. For a laugh, they...

When I think of You, Lord, In the watches of the night, I am filled with wonder At the power of Your might. All that lies before me, All that You have planned for me, Fills my life with purpose, So my heart now sings with glee. Each day in Your presence, As my heart draws close to You, I want...

Each day I live for Jesus Christ, To walk with Him, to not think twice About will I serve Him today, For my desire’s to kneel and pray. But all this comes straight from the Lord. And when He called, I got on board, For by His grace, saved me from sin, So I would only live for Him. Not perfect...

God’s love to me, it did impart His written Word, right from the start. From infanthood I heard His Word. From birth on up His Word I heard. In Sunday School, Church service, too, And Wednesday nights, His Word was due. In Bible studies, backyard clubs, No Bible lessons did we snub. In Youth...

Let’s take a walk down on a path, Where flowers bloom, birds hum their tunes, Where waters flow, the sun does glow, The trees do shade in afternoons. The gentle breeze feels oh, so good, The air breathed in gives fresh new start, The squirrels jumping through the trees Brings comfort, joy, and...
