                                     Voice of Hope
Are you weak and heavy laden, your burdens hard to bear
Do your trials and tribulations seem, to be more than your share?
God has given you an open door, all you need is to walk through
Your burdens will be lifted,Your trials will seem few
There is a place of refuge, away from Earthly cares
There is a place you can go,He will wipe away your tears
He shelters you in His arms and calms all your fears
The voice of God is calling,He has called down through the years
There is a voice of hope that is calling you and me
"Come unto me, I will give you rest"
You can be what I would have you be
My yoke is easy and my burdens light
Give your life unto me,I will make all things right.
                   In The Name Of The Lord
Does it seem life has passed you by
You look back years have gone
You begin to question
Have you lived your life all wrong
Does it seem you have wasted time
Not one life you have touched
If what you did was in the name of the Lord
Then to him little is much
Did you speak a kind word to one along the way
Did you lift a soul in prayer at the end of the day
Did you clothe or feed the needy
With no thought of being paid
If you did it to the least of them
Then you have shared Gods grace
Little is much if you do it in the name of the Lord
Little is much if you do it with no thought of reward
Little is much if you have lived your life
With no thought of wealth or fame
Little is much if what you did was to lift up Jesus name
.                               Haven Of Rest
God has given me a reason to want to live another day
There is a work He has shone me,He has paved the way
I am called to be a witness and to share His great love
All my strength and my hope comes from above
He showed me a haven a place that man can go
A place where he can rest when his spirits low
A place of rest, joy and love a place to find refuge
When troubles come in like a flood,He will bring you through
He invites everybody,He has no respect of man
No matter what the problem,He will be your friend
Whether rich or poor or young or old
His hand is open to you all you need is to take hold
                Someone Guiding
Your thoughts are a jumble
You know not which way to go
Your burdens are so heavy
You are torn in spirit and soul
You are about to drown in lifes problems
A hand lifts you above the load
There to guide your steps
Back to the strait and narrow road
There is a hand that we cannot see
It is there to lead and guide
It will lead us through the valley
And the mountains help us climb
If we get lost on the way
The right path it helps to find
The unseen hand of Jesus
Will lead us to the other side
                        He Calms The Sea
Life is so confusing there seems to be no easy way
To face all lifes problems and to face each new day
You get so tired and weary the battle seems to never end
Still you know there is an answer just around the next bend
You struggle and toil to make it through another day
No matter how hard you try you still lose your way
You search for the answers but you can't seem to find
The answer that will give you new strength and peace of mind
That answer is Jesus He will calm the raging sea
He will move the mountains and help you to believe
He will give you hope to face another day
if you only can believe Him trust His word and obey
            A Special Gift
I searced for the perfect gift
That would suit you to a tee
I looked in department stores
Up and down the streets
I just could not seem to find
What I was looking for
Then I had an inspiration
I had received this gift before
This special gift is Jesus
The one who changed my life
He gave His life for me
Just for me,He paid the price
So I give this gift to you
There is enough for you and me
Share it with others
Let them know that  it is free.
                      The Battle Has Been Won
Satan can not win the battle,he was defeated by the blood
You can stand like little David,his strength came from above
When he tries to tell you,that you can not win
A stronger but still voice says,the victories at the end
Satan may try to discourage,when he comes in like a flood
Just stand bold and remind him,of Jesus and His blood
You see he has  to back off,he knows he can not win
But be sure he will be back,and try once again
Satan will come back and try a new scheme
But he still can't win the battle,you are on the winning team
His days are growing shorter,his time is close at hand
Just stand firm and pull his bluff,while on Gods word you stand
HOPE
                    Jesus is the Door
God is bringing you from another valley
Can't you see that open door just ahead?
Do not look left, do not look right
Just keep Jesus in your sight.
He is waiting  to guide you to the other side
Just like Peter when he walked upon the water
He took his eyes off of Jesus and saw the waves
He was about to go down
He saw Jesus,turned around
He brought his eyes back to the One that can save
Jesus is the door
He is the same forever more
He does not change
He will bring you through just like before
When you thought you would fail
He was there to go your bail
He has always been there for you
There is nothing our God can not do
                   My Choice
I choose to stay upon the mountain
I choose to fight and to win
I choose this day to be victorious
I choose to live above all sin
There is life abundant if you choose it There are blessings you can not contain
There is hope to face each tomorrow
If you choose there is much to gain
Thereis a friend if you choose Him There is a guide to lead the way
There is a king you can be His son
If you choose to kneel and pray
                    A Living God
When I lay my head upon my pillow at night
I recall all the blessings Oh what a delight
To serve a living God who is not dead
A God who can speak, Not one made of lead
A God who can hear when I call on His name
A God with eyes that see, He treats all men the same
A God who knows the number of hairs on my head
One who clothes and feeds and supplies my daily bread
We serve a living God, who is not made with stone
A God who understands this man of flesh and bone
He understands our weakness,emotions and our fears
When on Him we call, He never fails to hear
