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

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.
