Nothing

Our sins or as some people
Call them junk
Have a way of catching
Up with us .
I know nothing
Can separate us
From the love of God .
Nothing we could do
Or have ever done
Can cause Him to love
Us less nothing .

The Old Ways

They may have good intentions
But sometimes they hit a barrier .
They may feel fear  ,
Doubt ,greed , laziness
And feel a lack of motivation
And then they may realize
The old ways are the old ways
Because the old people embrace them
Day after day..
I think the young should listen .
To the old people who have wisdom .

Winter

I am in the winter of my life .
I know God will make the season
An opportunity for me to grow stronger
In my faith .
He has the power
And the love to care for me .
God is always with me and you .
God has promised ,
He will never leave you or me
Or forsake us
No matter the season .

I Never Told Anyone

 I never told anyone .
No I never told anyone .
Have you ever told anyone  ?
When you feel down  ,
You need to tell someone .
You will feel better
I know it for a fact
So open up
You can .

Stuck

Jesus has this magnificent power
To get me unstuck
Of those people who treat me
Unjustly when I was young
And even in the past few days .
Some people ask ,
How did you get unstuck ?
I pray every day
And Jesus is sort of stuck to me ..
He can be on you like glue .
We all can be stuck in heaven .
I believe heaven is a nice place
To be stuck in .

The Helper

God is the Holy Spirit
Who knows the sighs
That we keep hidden deep
In our hearts ,
The words we can not bring
Ourselves to say
Even to our loved ones .
He is here for us .
He gives us hope and comfort
And God always listens
And answers us as He sees fit .
He is a comforter and helper to us all .

We Are Brothers

We do not have the same color
In our eyes or in our hair .
When one of us feels empty
And low and misunderstood
We look out for each other
at these times .
There is a bond among us brothers .
We were never strangers .
We shared joy and laughs ,
Sadness and also dreams .
We will hold each other's hands
Until the great unknown .
We will never stand alone .

Accomplishment

God has a purpose .
Parents and grandparents
Who pray for their children
In their lives ,Take them to church
And teach them about the Lord .
At times it can seem like a thankless job ,
But we trust that God is always at work .
He gives us strength with our faith .

Contentment

I love where I am in life .
True contentment is found in Christ .
At my age today I know that now.
He gives us peace, salvation
And joy forever .
There is a secret of contentment  .
There are God's blessings
Even in the toughest situations
In life .
Never forget God's grace .

No Score

Thank God does not keep score .
Time after time again He removes
Our sins .
He brings us back to repentance .
He forgives us and gives us strength
In His gifts of word and sacrament .
Yes again and again He forgives .

Body and Soul

My body matters to God .
My body will die one day
And I pray my soul goes to heaven
To be with Him .
I know in God's time
Jesus will return .
I pray when he does raise up my body
And make me brand new .
In body and soul
I will be with Jesus .
I will be with believers
My love ones
And yes I can hug them again .

Time After Time

God hears our prayers .
He may answer yes or no or wait .
His grace is sufficient for us .
His power is perfect when we are weak .
He gives us His grace
As we bring our prayers
To Him time after time
He gives us peace
When we do not understand His timing
Or His ways .
He will provide the healing .
We have to pray and believe .

The Church

This is where we are all children of God .
Where the angels fly ,
Where you will feel safe  ,
Where you bring your fears ,
Where we pray ,
Where we bring joy ,
Where we cry ,
Where we die ,
Where we say welcome ,
Where we say good by  ,
Where we bring our family ,
Where God hears us singing
In church .

Turn Your Eyes

Turn your eyes toward Jesus
And you will feel His glory
And His strength .
Oh to trust in Him
More and more every day .
When you have Jesus
You will always have a friend .
Oh precious Jesus .
When we see Jesus
We will all sing
And jump for joy
And victory .

Do Not Run

I do not want to run out of time .
You fail only when you stop .
Always start where you are
And go where you want to be .
Enjoy life and keeping your dreams alive .
Be gentle with everyone even yourself ,
Always remember your dreams
Do not have an expiration date .
You can achieve the supposedly
Impossible milestone
As long as you have time and hope
And the Lord .

It is Serious

Jesus does love you
God forgives us freely .
Sin is serious .
God sent His only Son
To live , die and rise again for us
That was the purpose of Jesus .
We are given faith
And the newness of life .
A life of clinging tAll
o Jesus
To help us
When we are tempted
To keep on sinning .
We need a life of walking
Joyfully with our Savior .

Holiday Season

It is holiday time a time of hope .
I got snap shots of us
But more than that I have memories
Of us playing football in the snow
Down at the park .
I remember many adventures
We experienced over the years .
I have lost much more than you
This past year
A feeling of a hug from many people
My dreams of us are unstoppable  
You showed and told me many things .
Not everything is alright
But there is always hope .
I will never fail
At trying to do the right thing
Feel the right way
As long as I have hope
I will always have hope .
When I think of you brother .
I will see you again eventually .
