CHURCH BELL






Waiting patiently for the church bell to ring
The heart is purged with burdens within
Its been years I made my last confession
The world around me is flooded with commotion
I couldn't plant a seed and watch it grow
I couldn't keep sin away from my soul

I need spend the whole night praying
For the sun to shine back in my life from dieing
Its beautiful being among people with so much passion
Appreciating God with beautiful songs and hymns in reception
There is white a painting on the walls in  my life
Everyday the world is filled with dreams fighting to survive

But no clouds to shade away the storms from one's life
On the pulpit struggles and challenges I will leave
And walk away back home a renewed man relief
With joy, God's love and nothing else to grieve
Ease the love forgotten due to pains, neglects and strife
So trees can grow again leaving within the heart a renewed life

Someday on the altar I am going to sing
Praises to His name and render a new song
For He made the world find peace amidst the storm
He alone can call a condemned and dieing heart back home
And can chased out the nightmares from our day
For if man is lost, through His son Jesus Christ will find a way

HOLY SPIRIT






Holy spirit comfort me
Can't make it on my own without thee
I tried to walk the way of the cross
But the world's pulling me in and am getting lost
A part of me is weak, the battle alone can't fight
Life is full of discouragement, hatred and pride
Feelings are broken, betrayed, lost and forsaken
Only through you can a soul begotten
Out of the problems in the world, I am only safe in your hands
Lives are destroyed everyday, the world's filled with crimes
Today, visit me physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually
All the negative yearning in my heart, please take them away from me
Let your wings and shadows be upon me
Come into my life and it be blessed
Until I journey to heaven and have eternal rest
Holy spirit, I pray today, comfort me
Let thy will of the lord in my heart run free

ABOVE THE SUN





Lord lift me up above the sun
My glory higher than the sky would run
Father you made the sea to overflow
In darkness, only you can make the heart glow
Make me a vessel relevant to the world
Take me higher where the law of man is void
Pour me spirit full, my vision unimaginable
To win back hearts wandering and lost to worship you
Fill the clouds and let it rain blessings in every life
For many souls lost, forsaken and broken, please revive
Just as you had opened my eyes to see the light
Touch souls and bring them home is my plight
For above the sun I laid my sight
To live in a world filled with love so bright

OH WHAT A WONDERFUL STORY




Oh what a wonderful story of the birth of Jesus
The world once was lost but through Him hope is found
It’s been a marvelous day Jesus saved the world
In the dark am not scared of temptation
He alone has the will and power to save a soul from condemnation
He planted trees in my life and they grow so tall
He catches me when I slipped so that I wouldn't fall
It’s been many years I heard about the story
How Jesus Christ my sin He shed on the cross fully
So I can have eternal life forever with Him in God's Glory
Oh, what a wonderful story told, that Jesus loves me
He is preparing a place for me in heaven and His coming back for me

I AM SO GLAD JESUS LOVES ME





I am so glad that Jesus loves me
When the enemies where behind me He patted the sea
When I was hungry and weary, He took care of me
When I was sick, He touched me and my body was healed

I am so glad that Jesus loves me
He taught me how to read the bible so heaven I can see
He gave me hope when the heart was weak and heavy laden
For the oppressed and poor prosecuted, His promise He has not forsaken

I am so glad that Jesus loves me
He is just and kind, for all His riches He gave to the world freely
On the cross He gave up is life so mine and yours wouldn't be deprived
He is forever faithful and there for you, for in your heart He can be found

I am so glad that Jesus loves me
He loves me, He loves you, and He loves you and me
If the world is crashing in your life tonight
Look up to him and He will surely make it right

I am so glad that Jesus loves me
He made the blind to see and fed the poor when they were hungry
It’s a good thing to be close to Jesus
Every day on His knees, He is praying for us

EVERY MAN NEEDS A COMPANION




Every man needs someone to talk to
He might be acting brave but deep down be all alone
A star may be so bright faraway that you cannot tell when it’s sad
So can a man be hurt inside and scared of sharing his feelings out of pride
It's okay if for a reason someday you want to cry
Feelings shared is half resolved and better than letting a problem fry
No man can make it on his own without help
A smile or a hug from a friend can save a heart from hell
The world we are leaving in will still be there tomorrow
No need to spend it in the dark, for the life you're living is borrowed
What keeps a man strong is his ability to share his pains
We gamble in our lives every day, what’s the use living a life without gains

LIFE







Life if full of surprises
Life is full of moments unforeseen
Life got a way of sneaking behind you
Life each day is full of mysteries
Life can be good, sometimes frustrating
Life may leave within a man, memorable moments
Life is a journey we can't hide from our heart
Sometimes we cry, sometimes we smile
That's just the beauty of life

TIME




Time is at hand to choose our faith
Time to be happy is our right and fate
Time to forget our grudges and hate
Time to love, rejoice and celebrate
Time to look beyond the past and present
Time to achieve success is today, so don't relent
Time to accept and obey Gods words is today
Time to plant a seed that wouldn't decay
Time to spend memorable moments
With love ones, neighbors and friends
Time to celebrate, for our sins He shed on the cross
Time for every soul, humility a choice
Time is all we've got to live a good life
Time to turn to God for the gift of eternal life
