Jesus Our Holy King You are The Only One The only thing To save us From ourselves From our own Inhumanity To each other
Our Prince of Peace Each and every day You struggle, You reach To fill our hearts With Yourself Your promises To fulfill, to keep
So let us Bow low On knees Before your throne May we receive Come to own The golden glow, The whispers of Not I that live But only Christ Jesus As my life to You May I mindfully choose Each and every day to give!!
Do you think you stand on terra firma? Think again A forever life down here Never were you meant to win Never will that happen But do not let your soul Be completely saddened Trust in Christ, His Word Do not follow the ways Of a world that pursues satan, that very evil dragon
One day, in God's timing When all of earth's clocks At last have stopped Their chiming With a great rush, From God's hand, With only one last touch On the face of this planet Will then man take his last stand
It will dissolve Hearing His voice His irrevocable call Earth will disappear Even the universe's stars No longer to anyone Will be clear Every molecule, every atom Every fraction of dust In nothing man has made No longer can we trust
So prepare yourself Get yourself ready In Christ alone Can your soul remain steady You will finally stand Before the golden throne Of a Holy Trinity Face to face with God's infinity To view at last His wondrous Glory And be allowed to read the first Few words of Your new life's eternal story!!
Come, Lord Jesus Come Heaven's Only Son From this moment My race, it has begun Only within You All love, peace, joy Emanates from
So lift me up May I never ever Become too worldly, Or too numb To Your beauty Please help me Transcend this earth, It's darkest scum
So take my meager crumbs And In your hands May I once more become Your treasure Your richest, ripest Of fruits, a plum And may I loudly proclaim Your truths, light In step with, in cadence with Living to the rhythm of The rest of, The best of All your Holy drums!!
This, An unusual gate An unusual shape Formed Of two wooden beams Not entirely an Unbroken seam What's known as A Cross
On it people were hung By hands or wrists From its one horizontal rung Until No longer down here Did they exist
Left to die Against God's pale blue sky But For them it was not The end For them the journey Was it just about To begin
Their souls released To step through a gate Into eternal peace Or into a darker pain For them, Their existence would Never be the same
Christ took that dark Symbol of man's brutality And turned it into the new Reality Of God's goodness, Forgiveness Love Falling in heavenly showers Of Jesus Christ's blood
So won't you step through This heavenly gate Opened daily, Always freely to you But remember, Only by your own faith As your Creator's joy-filled Heart awaits Do its portals swing wide To reveal His Glorious Paradise inside!!
Are you really Willing to die? Let go of it all? For an illusion? Something I cannot See? Something I Cannot touch?
But you say it Is the truth This is indeed Most acute! Is this how Your mind You wish to soothe?
An unseen God A Holy Savior A spiritual level to life? To save us from what? I will admit There is much chaos Afoot Everywhere much cruelty Pain suffering To find all of that No one would really Be at all hard put!
Maybe you are right Perhaps I should be more Contrite Learn to let go So I too may know The Spirit's burning fire, Joy, the Privilege To pick up my cross And follow Him His paradise to win To lose myself And for the living Christ Become a martyr!!
Jesus’s powerful presence and love can fill your heart and spirit like nothing or anyone else can. Nothing else on our earth can satisfy your deep spiritual, emotional needs like He can, and He wants to do that eternally and forever. Praise God!
Warmth
Warmth fills the air Pure gold A white clad throng They part I stare
You come Walking through the middle No one makes a sound Toward me You extend a hand You smile
Your radiance, Dear Christ, Warms me To my bones And Within Your smile's Warmth Lies my forever home!
