Singing through life, salvation’s song
Following Jesus’ lead
Upholding right and righting wrong
Planting with love life’s Seed
Is this today some fairy tale?
A legend parents tell?
We see the world, we watch it fail
But will it end in hell
Most serious is God on high
Of how we...
Failing a word to understand
A gesture or a tale
Can lead to anger no one planned
And even lives can fail
Misunderstandings cause much pain
Cause oft a broken heart
Can cause one’s love to run in vain
And vicious wars to start
Often with love our views we’ll share
Using some gentle...
We all accept to frequent schools
Expect to learn some trade
But seeking God, obeying rules
Seldom are efforts made.
Like eagles soaring on the breeze
We’re deaf to Heaven’s call
We feel so free, ourselves to please
Like calves fresh from the stall
Such folly, far from being wise...
Quicken my soul let strength be found
Let darkness raise her veil
Let wisdom lead to higher ground
Let Truth no longer fail
Quicken Your servant’s heart and mind
Let Light run through my veins
Open my eyes allow me find
The key to folly’s chains
From Adam’s curse make quick and free...
Darkness lingers, and devils dwell
Where Satan plants his seed
Without God’s Light these spores of hell
Evolve to deadly weed
So each of us should understand
Where Satan’s feet can tread
Barren; becomes that fertile land
Till plagued with shame, lies dead
Unfruitful is a land of sin...
I’d cheat I’d steal for daily bread
The devil was my choice
Content I’d lie within his bed
Until I heard Your voice
Speaking in visions to my mind
I saw the devil’s lies
My ravelled life I saw unwind
Before my very eyes
By grace my heart beheld the sight
The...
That I be found as golden wheat
Equipped for life’s great fight
From Jesus’ hand allow me eat
And fill my cup with Light
Within my soul let grace be found
Let darkness raise her veil
Let freedom lead to higher ground
Let Truth no longer fail
Let wisdom flood my heart my mind
Power...
From Adam’s curse make quick and free
Each cage of flesh and bone
Your living Word we long to see
Life’s secrets still unknown
Behind closed doors in open air
We walk our selfish way
Though You our God are everywhere
Watching us night and day
You see our deeds our every thought
The...
We act so proud we play the fool
We walk as though asleep
Yet bend and often break each rule
Heaven would have us keep
If we were parent of a child
Who plays the worldly clown
Would we reward for running wild?
Or would we wear a frown?
Some think The Lord should spare the rod
Should...
When things grow quiet, sink down deep
Uncertainties arise
When sinful flesh begins to weep
Heaven hears our cries
As guilt reveals its sombre face
When Light dawns in our soul
Christ’s offer of eternal grace
Breaks forth to make us whole
Feeling life’s water surge and flow
Feeling...
Let us pursue Salvation’s Road
Pursue life giving Light
Give Jesus Christ our heavy load
And put the foe to flight
Let us pursue the steps of Christ
The Way to life on high
To know The Lamb God sacrificed
And why He had to die
Let us pursue His righteous path
The path king David saw...
For fellowship they’d planned to meet
A meal they’d come to share
But just before they came to eat
One spoke to God in prayer
Immediately the six could tell
That two weren’t blessed with grace
Just four were saved from death and hell
Just four would see God’s face
Of God and life two...
I bless the day when first we met
Though long was gone his wife
Never the times will I forget
That helped to change my life
Tears would flood those wise old eyes
Then with a smile he’d turn
That gleaming face through years made wise
How much the world could learn?
His back now bent...
What makes a sheep from Christ to stray?
What causes sheep to fall?
What makes them rise and walk away?
Or roam from stall to stall?
Some wander through a lack of meat
Seeking The Father’s will
They come to sit at Jesus’ feet
But fail to get their fill
For some it comes from lasting...
Of God it’s strange what people tell?
What countries yet believe?
What rituals they seek to sell
What rubbish minds conceive
God seems to change in each our sight
We’re led to understand
He’s black, yellow, red, brown or white
Depending on our land
Traditions often cloud the mind...
The cross seemed such a foolish way
For Christ to set us free
But when obedience wins the day
Man’s heart The Truth will see
We see true love can conquer all
When love becomes our view
Through grace; in use, we’ll never fall
With virtue standing true
Still many ways we walk are wrong...
We blindly walk our selfish way
Like wolves and foolish sheep
We hurt each other night and day
And with the devil sleep
By day as Satan’s wicked tools
We cheat we steal we kill
By night delving ravenous fools
Seeking their lusts to still
But seldom will our hearts forgive
When...
Shortly this world we’ll leave below
We’ll rise and dwell the new
Leaving behind the filth we know
The foolishness we knew
For by God’s grace The Truth is ours
We’ve love beyond compare
Through Jesus’ blood tremendous powers
Eternal life to share
We live by faith and not by sight
We...
Once more God’s Son will come to earth
In clouds destined above
In the glorious glow of new birth
We’ll rise by grace in love
What visions will there be up there?
What wonders will we see?
What treasures has The Lord to share?
For those His blood set free
What victories will our...
Parting we find is seldom sweet
When life has closed the gates
When face to face our God we’ll meet
Eternity awaits
Forever in hell’s gruesome flame
Or life with Heaven’s few
Choose now the devil’s path of shame
Or do as Christ would do
Some see in life they’re cold and lost
They...
