WE'RE READY

WE'RE  READY

The  life  and  death

Of  our  country

For  years  it  grew

With  God’s  decree

He  gave  us  laws

Which  we  lived  by

Morals  and  values

We  thought  wouldn’t  die

They’ve  turned  from  God

And  all  He  can  do

His  blessings  are  leaving

This  country  it’s  true

They  say  they  don’t  know

Why  things  are  so  bad

They  can’t  see  the  truth

Dear  God  it’s  so  sad

America  this  land

Once  you  did  bless

Since  they’ve  turned  from  You

Oh  God  what  a  mess

We’re  waiting  for  you

You  promised  you  know

You  said  you’d  come  get  us

We’re  ready  to  go  

16    For the lord himself will descend from heaven with

a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet

of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.

17    Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up

together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.

And thus we shall always be with the Lord.

1 Thessalonians  4 : 16, 17

ONLY SUNDAYS

ONLY  SUNDAYS

Praise  the  Lord

Lift  hands  high

Trust  in  Jesus

He’ll  never  lie

All  you  need  do

Is  invite  Him  in

He’ll  always  be  there

Living  within

For  granted  we  take

His  love  you  know

Praise  Him  on  Sunday

The  one  day  you  show

What  would  you  do

Needing  him  one  day

Sundays  only

Is  all  He  would  say

Jesus  gave  us  his  all

So  we  could  live

Just  one  day  a  week

Is  all  you  can  give

Your  body’s  His  temple

This  He  told  you

Jesus  is  with  you

In  all  that  you  do

So  Monday  to  Sunday

What  have  you  done

Would  God  adopt  you

As  daughter  as  son

So  ask  your  Father 

What  can  I  do

For  the  rest  of  my  life

Let  me  serve  you

And whatever you do, do it heartily,

as to the Lord and not to men,

knowing that from the Lord you

will receive the reward of the inheritance;

for you serve the Lord Christ.

                                 Colossians  3 : 23, 24                     

MESSAGES

MESSAGES

A  message  you  got

Could  it  be  true

Is  it  really  God

Talking  to  you

The  messages  came

All  in  rhyme

God  slowed  it  down

He  gave  me  time

He  said  write  down

For  all  to  see

These  words  He  sent

Weren’t  just  for  me

As  the  messages  came

I  read  them  to  you

He  said  where  did  this  come  from

It  sure  isn’t  you

God  said  test  the  words

See  if  it’s  true

If  you  read  his  bible

He’ll  give  you  the  cue

If  it  holds  up  in  time

True  it  should  be

That  God  sent  these  words

For  all  to  see

If anyone speaks, let him speak as

the oracles of God.  If anyone ministers,

let him do it as with the ability which

God supplies, that in all things God may

be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom

belongs the glory and the dominion

forever and ever.  Amen.

1 Peter  4 : 11

HE’S COMING

HE’S  COMING

God’s  coming  from  heaven

He’s  moving  mountains

You’ll  see  all  his  glory

Flowing  like  fountains

His  believers  He’ll  take

Out  of  the  way

God’s  protection  will  be

Leaving  this  day

In  heaven  there’ll  be

A  great  celebration

Here  on  earth 

There’ll  be  devastation

God  you  turned  down

For  His  Son’s  reception

You  took  the  easy  way

You  chose  the  deception

You  thought  you  knew  all

And  God  you  didn’t  need

He’s  gone  now  and  left

The  devil  take  heed

You  can  still accept  God

With  your  own  wills

You  will either  die  for  him

Or  run  to  the  hills

God  gave  us  a  time  line

For  all  to  see

You’ve  got  seven  years

To  come  back  to  Me

In  life  or  in  death 

Do  you  know  where  you’ll  be

In  heaven  or  in  hell

                          For  an  eternity                           

For the Lord Himself will descend

form heaven with a shout, with the

voice of an archangel, and with

the trumpet of God.  And the dead

in Christ will rise first.

Then we who are alive and remain

shall be caught up together with them

in the clouds to meet the Lord in the

air.  And thus we shall always

be with the Lord.

1 Thessalonians  4 : 16, 17

STAND UP

STAND  UP

If  you’re  a  Christian  group

They’ll  say  let  us  in

They’ll  say  I  don’t  believe

In  what  you  call  a  sin

They  say  they  don’t  want

What  God  says  they  need

They  say  they  can  do  better

They  want  the  lead

You  say  in  this  group

By  God’s  laws  it’s  run

They’ll  take  you  to  court

The  judge  says  your  done

You’re  a  Christian  group

The  world  can  see

They  just  don’t  want

You  to  be  free

If  you  stand  by  God’s  laws

You  discriminate

For  believing  in  morals

They  love  to  hate

It’s  time  to  stand  up

For  what  God  gave

Our  freedom,  our  lives

Through  Jesus  He  saves

                                          

“Therefore whoever confesses me before men,

Him I will also confess before my father who is in heaven.

“but whoever denies me before men, him I will also

deny before my Father who is in heaven.

Matthew  10 : 32, 33

RESPONSIBILITY

RESPONSIBILITY

If  you  stand  up  for  God

And  say  it  is  wrong

They’ll  call  you  a  bigot

And  want  you  gone

Your  voice  they  want  silent

They’re  made  it  quite  clear

Christian  values  and  God

They  don’t  want  to  hear

Their  goal  is  to  teach

Your  children  you  see

In  public  schools 

What  they  believe

They  teach  what  they  want

But  God  can’t  get  in

What  their  teaching  as  right

God  calls  it  a  sin

They  say  they  don’t  know

Why  things  are  so  bad

Kids  killing  kids

They’ll  say  it  so  sad

They’re  pushing  their  trash

Through  your  TV

Then  they  blame  you

For  letting  them  see 

It’s  a  business  they  say

Big  money  they  make

Responsibility

They’ll  never  take

Pushing  violence  and  sex

God  said  it’s  a  sin

For  their  love  of  money

They  can’t  let  Him  in

If  your  a  Christian  they  love

Putting  you  down

Hollywood  thinks  God

They  can  push  around

When  their  time  comes

And  God  they  will face

He’ll  judge  them  and  send  them

You  know  what  place

He’ll  cast  them  down

With  the  staff  of  His  rod

See  heaven  is  for

Those  who  love  God

Then the Lord said to him, “now

you Pharisees make the outside of the

cup and dish clean, but your inward

part is full of greed and wickedness.

Luke  11 : 39   

So are the ways of everyone

who is greedy for gain;

It takes away the life of its owners.

Proverbs  1 :19

HOME TO STAY

HOME  TO  STAY

He  came  down  from  heaven

For  you  and  me

He  came  down  from  heaven

For  all  to  see

To  have  faith  in  him

Is  what  you  must  do

God  sent  him  to  die

He  did  it  for  you

He  came  out  of  the  grave

And  ascended  on  high

He  showed  us  the  way

So  we’ll  never  die

He  rose  up  to  heaven

To  defend  you  and  I

So  when  the  time  comes

We  will  live  on  high

He  forgives  all  we  did

He  washed  it  away

Up  to  God’s  heaven

You’re  home  to  stay

“In my father’s house are many

mansions; if it were not so, I would

have told you.  I go to prepare

a place for you

John  14 :2
