I Have Been Redeemed--8/16/2016
I have been redeemed, in the Name of the Father
I have been redeemed, in the Name of the Son
I have been redeemed, in the Name of the Holy Spirit
My sin has been washed away
My burdens been carried astray
What would you do, if I say "Salvation is Today"?
I have been redeemed, and so can you
I have been redeemed, through the light and the truth
It is Called the Holy, Holy Ghost
It is called the Holy Ghost
It is called the Holy, Holy Ghost
I got the Holy Ghost
I feel it inside my soul
I feel it all over
One day it got control of me, and it never, never let me go
It is called the Holy Ghost
It is called the Holy, Holy Ghost
I am not ashamed of what it does to me, you see
It makes me want to jump
It makes me want to shout
It makes me want to tell you what it all about
It is called the Holy Ghost
It is called the Holy, Holy Ghost
Once, I was Living in a World of Sin
Once, I was living in a world of sin
I couldn't find no peace within
Suddenly, Jesus came into my life, and now
I want to thank him from the bottom of my heart
Thank you Jesus
Thank you for the love that you gave to me
Thank you Jesus
Thank you for the happiness that you gave to me
Once, I was living in a world of sin
I couldn't find no peace of mind
Suddenly, Jesus came into my life, and now
I want to thank him from the bottom of my heart
Thank you Jesus,
Thank you for the love that you gave to me
Thank you Jesus
Thank you for the happiness that you gave to me
I have been redeemed, in the Name of the Father
I have been redeemed, in the Name of the Son
I have been redeemed, in the Name of the Holy Spirit
My sin has been washed away
My burdens been carried astray
What would you do, if I say "Salvation is Today"?
I have been redeemed, and so can you
I have been redeemed, through the light and the truth

Half-Stepping
I tell you my friends--straight from the heart and words of true wisdom-- unless you fully do God's Will and are truly, and I mean truly, saved, you will not see the Kingdom of Heaven. So always focus on Jesus who always makes the path straight in your life, and always fighting the good fight for if you do, you will definitely be rewarded in the end.
Always remember my friends, from the front to the back of your mind, that there is no such thing as Half-Stepping in the Kingdom of Heaven. So whenever you come to God always make sure your words and actions are totally pure and true from the heart.
Lord please forgive me
Lord please forgive me
For I know not what I do
Lord please forgive me
For I know your Word is true
I can't deny You
For if I do,
I know that my life will be through
So, Lord please forgive me
For I know not what I do
Lord, please forgive me
For I can't stop loving You
Fallen
A fallen angel is not what you want to be
Being cast out of heaven like the devil, forever, how stupid can that be?
For not holding onto the truth, and obeying God's Word
It is so very sad that the most beautiful angel that was in heaven is now no more
And is very pissed cause he lost his place in heaven
So, whatever you do my friends
Always stay in the Lord and don't be like that fallen angel
Always remembering God will help you along the way
And never give up on you
And I have faith that you will make it and can also do it
And it's as simple as 123 and ABC like the Jackson 5
God will always love you, protect you, and always keep you
Even if you have fallen
Make Way!
Make way for the Glory of the Lord
And all His beautiful angels up in thy heavenly kingdom up above
Make way for He has definitely risen and is truly coming back
For all people that truly believe and trust in Him
Make way for Him and He will make your paths straight
Blessed are those who stay in the Lord regardless of what the devil throws at them
or even puts in their path
For they will definitely be rewarded great
So, stay on the path to salvation
And you will reap eternal life in Christ Jesus forever and ever my friend
Until the very end
So, taste and see that the Lord is good
Step Up
Step up to the plate like you was at a ball game
For when it comes to the Lord Jesus Christ,
and when you step in Jesus Christ's Name,
always remember you have to be bold when it comes to his Name
For there is power in his Name
For example, every time the devil and his followers hear the name Jesus Christ
they automatically get down on their knees and tremble
For there is power in that name and there is power in the blood of the Lamb
So my friends, if you remember nothing else, remember this...
For in that great day of the Lord's coming, please make sure you are standing firm in the faith
and that you have surrendered it all
and that all your work you have done unto the Lord is pleasing, so pleasing in His eyes
That Jesus Christ steps to you and you to Him
Now step!
You Don't Know What You're Missing
You don't know what you're missing until you meet the Lord
For unless you are saved and I mean truly saved you will never ever be
as happy as you should be
or ever feel real joy inside yourself
let alone anything ever really go or be right in your life
Unless you're on the Lord's side fighting the good fight all the way through until the very end,
always keeping and holding onto the faith
you will never ever truly be complete or ever know what it truly means to be whole as a person in the Lord.
But I pray that you are already there or that you make it there
for there isn't any other feeling of such joy and happiness on this earth like the Lord gives
and just in case you ain't on that narrow road leading to ever lasting life,
you really don't know what you're missing.
Only
Only God up above can turn your darkness to light
And only God can turn you inside out cleansing you from your sins
And only God can fix your heart and change your state of mind and thinking--
Getting you on the right track with Him
If you only allow Him to,
for He is able and always willing to listen to you
And able to fix
and put back together any and all broken lives
And can also mend a broken heart
For God Almighty can do all things, nothing is impossible with God or beyond His reach
If you only repent of your sins, truly, and give your life over to Him
You will find out the Lord Jesus Christ only has good things stored up for you

Nine Eleven, Hell or Heaven?--9/11/2016
Nine eleven, hell or heaven?
In a business suit, running from a crash
In a uniform, running towards the ash
Building fail, sirens wail…who or what is carried away?
Hand to hand we pass the pail
The sudden violence, a call for justice
For all of us, or just us? Punitive, restorative?
Is anybody guilty of executing the innocent?
When innocence is lost, who pays the cost?
Questions demand answers. Truth is neither black nor white
Shadows live side by side with light
The wrong, the right, the day, the night
But what of dusk, and what of dawn?
The singer’s gone, the song is sung
We sing the blues, we’ve seen the pain
We know the sun but feed the rain
One last call before I die
To say I love you, before you cry
Nine-eleven, hell or heaven?
The years roll on, the memories fade
Life goes on or it doesn’t
that which was, that which wasn’t
Fingers point, casting blame
But smoke and mirrors change the game
Sudden death…some win, some lose
But who’s the one who gets to choose?
The names are read, and we remember
Today’s the eleventh of September
I remember where I was that day
I’d left my TV on. So quickly what I knew was gone
The sudden shock, a sleep so deep, stunned and silent
I could not yet weep
Before I watch another tower fall
I make a desperate telephone call.
I try to warn my family, not to drive into the city
It turned out that they were OK
But not for all of us that day
We want to cry out…who will pay?
But everyone does since that fateful day.
Nine-eleven, hell or heaven?
From where do we come,
to where do we go?
Is it really for us to know?
What is it that we’re thinking of?
Wallowing in fear and anger?
Or compassion and love?
A world that comes together in unity
To rise like a phoenix from tragedy!
Like Gandhi and King, the love of liberty
Or a prisoner of fear that grasps for security?
The horror of terror, a desire to judge
Forgiveness can not hold a grudge
We never used to lock our doors
Even during childhood wars
But locks aren’t locked without a key
Outside the door what do we see?
The month, September, the day, eleven
Fear is hell
Love is heaven!
Nine eleven, hell or heaven?
In a business suit, running from a crash
In a uniform, running towards the ash
Building fail, sirens wail…who or what is carried away?
Hand to hand we pass the pail
The sudden violence, a call for justice
For all of us, or just us? Punitive, restorative?
Is anybody guilty of executing the innocent?
When innocence is lost, who pays the cost?
Questions demand answers. Truth is neither black nor white
Shadows live side by side with light
The wrong, the right, the day, the night
But what of dusk, and what of dawn?

We sing the blues, we’ve seen the pain
We know the sun but feed the rain
One last call before I die
To say I love you, before you cry

The years roll on, the memories fade
Life goes on or it doesn’t
that which was, that which wasn’t

I Woke Up the Next Morning
I Woke Up the Next Morning...
After a stormy night,
My entire body filled with fright,
Every ounce of doubt just filled my mind,
In an instance darkness filled my heart and I was blind,
But you see...
I Woke Up the Next Morning...
Even when I thought I didn't deserve it,
Even when I thought every mistake had owned me,
My own condemnation filled the incomplete
Of every broken promise and the shackles
That made me scream "Un-FREE!"
But you see...
I Woke Up the Next Morning...
And saw my neighbor smile
Saw the innocence in a child
Witnessed the hopeless win their trials
I thought Why Me? With my tainted style?
In the meanwhile
I Woke up the Next Morning...
And had a conversation with God
I asked a couple questions like,
Why do you insist that I am enough?
Why choose the weakest, don't you want the tough?
Why grant me another breath,
If sometimes I rather be dead?
Instead...
I Woke Up the Next Morning...
Heard a whisper say, "You are my child,
Don't you know you are royalty?
And yes, I know this world is unfair,
as it was with me
But you see I shed my blood so your sins could be
Forgiven and cleansed for eternity.
NO mistake too big can deem you less that the precious treasure you are to Me,
At times you might be blind yet,
Trust Me
The plan may not be clear yet,
Trust Me
Sometimes you may not hear yet,
Trust Me
I have shed my blood, you have been redeemed
So that today, tomorrow, and every morning
You can wake up and scream
I AM FREE!!!
Now be at peace my child and go to sleep"
