All His Land

Have you talked to Jesus today

You know He hears every word

Listen intently for His is the truth

Pay attention to everything heard

You will hear of a place called Heaven

Where all believer will go to some day

There they will find a life that is eternal

Its where they find happiness every way

Where you can walk and talk with Jesus

Stroll with Him along the Golden strand

See all the beauty God has created there

In this the most hallowed of all of His land

Some day I will be with Jesus in Heaven

I will tell Him everything that is in my heart

He will smile for He knows it is my home

Once there He knows we shall never part

Springtime

Our trees are going to full leaf now

They hide the scars of a winter past

Mild temperatures of the springtime

Are simply great but they won't last

Beauty is seen as the Azaleas bloom

Tulips are still showing so much color

Redwood and dogwood are past bloom

Sun shines in a sky that is a pale azure

Isn’t it wonderful how God makes spring

Resurrecting life from a winter of death

Making things come alive with vibrance

Giving to everything a clean fresh breath

Of course He gives the other seasons peaks

I think springtime is the most remarkable of all

Autumn has beauty in the leaves and are pretty

Still we know what happens after we see the fall

How Great He Is

I want to walk a hallowed path in Heaven

See my Lord and Master one bright day

Tell Him I love everything He stands for

Thank Him for taking all of my sins away

How great that He saved a sinner like me

When I was down and out He picked me up

Shed the stigmatism that surrounded my soul

Taught me to my God I must daily worship

Each day I search for words to say to Him

Knowing my words His ears are sure to hear

He listens intently as I tell Him I am a believer

Mine is a soul that to Him I will always lay bare

When I tread on those Golden streets in Heaven

I want Jesus to be right there walking by my side

I will thank Him for the goodness He has shown

Knowing it was for my sins He suffered and died

A Farmer’s Life

As the evening shadows lengthen

His work day has come to an end

Working on his farm brings him joy

His kids to college he is able to send

He thanks God for this opportunity

His loving wife is ever by his side

He thinks of how blessed he now is

A smile on his face shows the pride

Each day when the work is finished

He takes the time to have a prayer

He thanks our God who is in Heaven

For having things the way they are

When his farming days here are over

He wonders if in Heaven there is a farm

He would love to ride on his old tractor

Feel Heavens Sun on his bare arm

Victory Is Won

I want to wade in the water He walks on

Feel my feet touch that soft sand below

To be with my Lord and Savior I cherish

This is something I want my God to know

I know that I cannot be without Earthly sin

We all know the penalty for our sin is death

Jesus died because He took our sins away

He cleansed our souls with His last breath

It is death we must know to reach Heaven

On this Earth we are laid beneath the sod

We will then ascend to our heavenly home

Where we shall then see our Savior, God

Confess your sins and believe in His word

If you want to see our Savior up in Heaven

When through the portal of His city you go

You will then know that your victory is won

A Dangerous World

With the world on the brink of disaster

We need to pray to our Lord each day

Ask Him to calm each and all situations

Until calmer heads can have had their say

So many countries having nuclear weapons

Has made this world a dangerous place to live

With some hot heads leading these countries

Orders to fire these weapons they might give

It may not be long until a hand hits the button

That sends a weapon flying high up in the air

Not realizing this could cause the world to end

They don’t know or maybe they don’t really care

We must pray for these hot heads to cool down

Put aside these weapons of mass destruction today

Let us all live in a world of peace and of harmony

This is what I will ask our God every time that I pray

He Will Answer

When the last breath has ebbed from my body

As these deafened ears of mine hear no more

When mortal life that was spent on Earth is over

I will walk with my Jesus along the Golden shore

No longer will I suffer the ravishes of Earth’s time

As the pure comfort Heaven affords shall be mine

Living in a land that God made with great perfection

Will make for me an eternal life that will be so divine

I know God has heard my prayers and He will answer

When I go before Him on that day judgement is heard

I want to hear His words well done my faithful servant

It will be then I know my prayers have been answered

Although my life on Earth has been far from perfection

Jesus died on that old wooden cross as He took my sin

He also died for your sins on that day at Mount Calvary

So a new life with Him up in Heaven will one day begin
