DO YOU THINK THE HOLY SPIRIT WOULD WANT TO LIVE INSIDE OF YOU

Photobucket

Verse:
When you are born again.
And invite the Holy Spirit
To come on in.
And live inside of you,
Watching over all you do.
He knows the way you live,
If you take .. or if you give,
To others who are in need,
Helping them to believe.
Chorus:
Do you think the Holy Spirit,
would want to live inside of you?
Are you a happy person,
or complain the whole day through.
Do you show love to your fellowman,
And give whatever and whenever you can.
Do you think the Holy Spirit,
Would be proud or be ashamed.
Verse:
Remember what He said,
"If you want to be forgiven,
you must forgive."
Don't let the sun go down,
Without a smile to replace a frown.
Take a page out of His good Book,
Live the way you promised Jesus
On the day you took
A walk with Him in the Garden
Thanking Him for the price He paid
To make a home for you in Heaven.
Chorus:
Do you think the Holy Spirit
Would want to live inside of you?
Are you a happy person,
Or complain the whole day through.
Do you show love to your fellowman
And give whatever and whenever you can.
Do you think the Holy Spirit,
Would be proud or be ashamed?
Think about it ...
Would He be proud ....
Or would He be ashamed.

BORN TO BE

Chorus:
When you walk
Through the valley
You won't have to walk alone.
Jesus will be there
Watching from His Throne.
He will meet you
On your journey,
Where He'll take you by the hand,
And lead you to the Promised Land.

To all my loved ones
Please don't cry for me.
I'll be with my Lord and Savior,
Where I was born to be.

VERSE:
I can smell the sweet fragrance
Of every flower ever made.
And hear the sweet sound of melodies
In my heart they do invade.

If I had a choice
To go or stay right here.
I'll be waiting there
For all the ones I hold so dear.



CHORUS:
When you walk
Through the valley
You won't have to walk alone.
Jesus will be there
Watching from His Throne.

He will meet you
On your journey,
Where He'll take you by the hand,
And lead you to the Promised Land.

To all my loved ones
Please don't cry for me.
I'll be with my Lord and Savior,
Where I was born to be.

To all my loved ones
Please don't cry for me.
I'll be with my Lord and Savior,
Where I was born to be

Born to be ... Born to be ...
Born to beeeeeeee!!!

When your heart is shattered
Lying in pieces on the floor
It really doesn't matter
If anyone else knows .. Jesus knows.

When you're face down at the alter
Hurting deep down to your core
There's One Who knows that kind of sorrow ...
Jesus knows.

Jesus knows when you are weary
Jesus knows the load you bear
He wants to be the One you lean on
When life seems unjust .. unfair.
He'll give you hope for a bright tomorrow
And see you through those highs and lows
If you'll just put your trust in Jesus
Cause Jesus knows.

Jesus knows when you are weary
Jesus knows the load you bear
He wants to be the One you lean on
When life seems unjust .. unfair.
He'll give you hope for a bright tomorrow
And see you through those highs and lows
If you'll just put your trust in Jesus
Cause Jesus knows.

If you'll just put your faith and trust in Jesus
Cause Jesus knows.

SEASONS

Whenever I see the sun’s rays
Peeking through the clouds,
It fills my heart with gladness
And makes me want to laugh out loud.

In the heat of the Summer,
When nothing’s stirring in the air.
Lying in the shade of an old Oak tree,
I enjoy the stillness there.

Taking a walk through the quiet woods,
On a crisp, clear Autumn day.
Feeling the leaves crunch beneath my feet
Makes me want to kneel and pray.

Then Winter rears it’s ugly head
And all the trees are bare.
Looking out the window at the sky,
Makes my mind wander up there.

When the buds of Spring start blooming
All things turning new again.
We need to stop and smell the roses.
And embrace the peace
That only comes from Him.

KEEP YOUR EYES ON JESUS

Keep your eyes on Jesus
Stay focused in His Word.
He’ll speak to you of wonders past
Such things you’ve never heard.

He’ll fill your Spirit from within,
With truth, joy, peace and love.
And rain His many blessings down,
From His heavenly home above.

Don’t let the trials in this life now,
Distract you from your goal.
Of resting your eyes upon the Lord,
Feeling his love deep in your Soul.

To stand in the Presence of the Lord,
No description could suffice.
Even unbelievers hearts should melt,
For them too, He paid the price.

So keep your eyes on Jesus,
Let Him guide you in all you do.
Yes, keep your eyes on Jesus
Cause Jesus has His eyes on you.

Yes,keep your eyes on Jesus,
Let Him guide you in all you do.
Yes, keep your eyes on Jesus
Cause Jesus has His eyes on you.

THE LOVE OF JESUS

Chorus:
I may not have everything
That money can buy
Like mansions and yaughts
And Lamborghinis that fly.
But I have had real love
And I know this is true.
The One Who still loves me?
Yes Jesus … it’s You.

Verse:
You never let me forget
What’s important to me.
It’s not kept in a bank
Or floating on the high sea.

It’s nothing material
You can touch, see or smell.
It’s the Love of my Saviour
I now know so well.

You’ll never leave or forsake me
You promised You’d stay.
I know You live here inside me
I feel Your Presence each day.

Lord, please make me worthy
Of love You freely give.
A love like no other
My God, You died .. so I’d live.

Now You’re the One that I count on
To always be there.
Through the good times and bad times
You make me aware,

That no matter how much
Or how little I own.
My true treasure lies
At the foot of Your Throne.

Chorus:
I may not have everything
That money can buy
Like mansions and yaughts
And Lamborghinis that fly.

But I have had real love
And I know this is true.
The One Who still loves me?
Yes Jesus … it’s You.

Yes,I have had real love
And I know this is true.
The One Who still loves me?
Yes Jesus … it’s You.

BEAUTY IN HIS WORD

The beauty in a sunrise
And a sunset can’t compare,
To the beauty of His written Word,
When we bow our heads in prayer.

Our Father, Who art in Heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Once these words are etched
Forever on our hearts,
we can never be the same.

Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done,
Here on earth as it is in Heaven.
This is what we all are waiting for,
It has already been proven.

Give us this day, our daily bread …
He sustains us every day.
And helps us forgive those
Who hurt us most,
And forgives us along the way.

Lead us not into temptation,
Deliver us from the Evil one.
We will never have to fight alone,
Our Victory has already been won.

The beauty in a sunrise
And a sunset can’t compare,
To the beauty of His written Word,
When we bow our heads in prayer.

Lead us not into temptation,
Deliver us from the Evil one.
We will never have to fight alone,
Our Victory has already been won.

I DON'T WANT TO GO DOWN THAT ROAD AGAIN

ALL RIGHTS RESERVED

Chorus:
I don’t want to go
down that road again.
Where the nights
are long and lonely
And the walls keep closing in.
I called on His Name
to see me through
To be made whole
and totally brand new
So I won’t want to go back
down that road again.

Verse:
I don’t want to remember
those dark years
Before I found Jesus
through my tears.
He reminds me every day ..
By His Blood He
washed all my sins away
Now I won’t go back down
that long, dark road again.

Chorus:
I don’t want to go
down that road again.
Where the nights
are long and lonely
And the walls keep closing in.
I called on His Name
to see me through
To be made whole
and totally brand new
So I won’t want to go back
down that road again.

I called on His Name
to see me through.
To be made whole
and totally brand new.
Now I won’t go back down
that long dark road again.

Now I won’t go back down
that long dark road again.

TIPTOE ACROSS THE LILY PADS
Copyright 2009 Gerti M. Blackwell
ALL RIGHTW RESERVED


There once was a very strange lady
Juddlebebobug, for short.
She loved to go down and sit by the pond
And practice her newfound sport.

Athletic now, she wasn’t
Stamina .. she did not possess.
Maybe this was just her way
Of relieving some of her stress.

She went down to the pond most every day.
Watching the frogs as they made their way
Across those lilypads, they ran
Then back again, to where they began.

So one fine day, she made a choice
And speaking in a low deep voice.
She warned those frogs to move aside.
Juddlebebobug was gonna take a ride.

She tested the water with her great big toe
Then stepping onto a lilypad, away she did go.
Hopping one to another, as fast as she could.
Juddlebebobug was actually pretty good.

Then suddenly, much to her surprise
A bull frog landed right between her eyes.
The pad flipped over, and down they went.
Landing on the bottom, like a block of cement.

Floating to the top, and gasping for air,
The big bull frog still had her by the hair.
Flipping her over, he pulled her to shore.
Then puffing out his throat, he gave a bull frog roar.

“Woman, if you tip toe on my lily pad again,
I can’t be held responsible for the pain you’ll be in.
These are my pads, and this is my pond.
So when I look up again, you had better be gone.”

Juddlebebobug left very wet and sore
Her lilypad jumping days, were to be no more.
But she gave herself credit for what she had done.
Tippy Toeing across those Lilypads
Sure had been fun.

Written for another of my very dear friends
with a wonderful sense of humor.
