The Tear
Don't cry, Lord Jesus
Why that tear?
Does a sorrow to you
Draw too near?
I lay my cheek upon your hand
As flowers around my head
Do blend
Let me love you
Oh my God, my dear
You lift the crystal fluid
Off your cheek
Wait a moment
Before you speak
It is not for sorrow
That my eyes do weep
But for pure joy, beloved child
That in eternity I now may you forever keep!
John 15:11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.
Also, Hebrews 12:2
The King
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!!
Praise You
Lord Jesus
Praise You!!
From
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!!
The Gate
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!!
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!
We are all immortal, living spirits. Created in the image of God, we will never cease to exist, and the good thing about life is that He gives you the freedom to choose where you will spend eternity!
Then My Soul
Then my soul
Raised her hands
Unbound by earth
Unlocked from land
Blew out her wings
Called by Your Spirit's
Songs
From heaven's hope
They rise, they spring
And sailed away
From off this
Darkened ground
Following
Your Sweet Voice's sound
To live forever within
Christ’s Glory!!
