them with you...

LOVED ONES NEVER FORGOTTEN
Although
we know our loved ones are not around,
because
God has taken them to higher ground,
up
in heaven where rest can be found...
Those
precious memories, of all the years,
that
have been shared with joy and tears,
they
will never be forgotten, no not even for a day,
cause
life was woven with a thread so strong,
that
came from God's big hand who holds and loves us all...

SOAR AS AN EAGLE
Watch
the eagle, they fly so high,
sometimes
soar and sometimes dive.
We,
as Christians, can soar as they,
just
walk in love, and look to the sky...
As
we soar above the grind,
no
longer are we left behind.
Walk
the talk, as we have been taught,
by
the written word that we longingly sought...
While
soaring high, as an eagle in flight,
we
are lifted above the cares of this life.
Love,
Joy and Peace be our rest,
as
we journey on to do our best....

A
BLESSING
Soon
time will be no more
when
we meet across the shore
what
a joy there awaits
when
we see Jesus at the gate
Hand
in hand we'll stroll
down
the streets of pure gold
no
more thinking of the past
all
forgotten we're home at last
What
a joy that will be
when
we see Jesus and our loved ones too
all
is love, joy and peace
what
a reunion that will be
In
heaven no more worry
never
have to be in a hurry
can
take all the time we need
for
there we'll spend eternity....

THE STORM
The
South wind blowing in the field
and
I feel a change as it get's near
could
be a storm or a gentle rain,
what
ever it is, I'm still the same...
God
is our high tower where we can run
to
hide from the storm raging within
or
the storm outside with great high winds
He
is our refuge on Him we can depend...

GOD'S
COLORING BOOK
While
taking a walk, I paused to look
God's
beautiful handiwork His coloring book
pretty
flowers blooming in the field,
everything
He made, by His own will...
The
beauty of the trees, rocks and the hills
floating
clouds blue and white, passing by
multi
colors of the rainbow after a rain
reaching
far across the big blue sky...
The
ocean is wide and very deep
many
things there for our eyes to see,
all
different species there in the sea
has
a color which they will keep...
Take
the time to view this book
so
many colors there abound
God
created all beauty around,
a
big coloring book, if you'll just look...

MUSIC FROM THE HEART
As
I awake to this beautiful morning
thanking
you Lord for another day to perform
all
is well and everything is all right
I'll
just keep singing with all of my might
There'll
always be a song down in my heart
I'll
never let those words depart
making
melody as I go along
God
hears the music of my heart felt song
As
I began my daily chores
singing
unto Him
and
He opens a new door
all
my praises I give unto Him
because
of His love that lives within

ANOTHER TIME AND
ANOTHER PLACE
Many
years have come and gone
since
the day I was born,
when
we meet at Heaven's gate
Another
Time and Another place...
Time
is swiftly passing by
yesterday's
are out of sight,
It
will be Jesus, He is the light
Another
time and Another Place....
