WORLD ABOVE THE CLOUD




There is a world so beautiful above the cloud
So peaceful with care, love and smile
It rains down grace for the earth not to starve
The wind blows beneath her, regrets and pains taken from our heart
Night and day of good memories as kindness spread over the sky
No graves, for death no life can have
Hugs and love, affection and kindness each day
A city of the cloud would be if man will welcome a new life today
A life of consciousness of God's love for mankind
Darkness taken from his heart and left in God's hand
A hand that gives hope, inspiration, oneness in spirit and eternal life
To live a new world promised of a new life

BELIEVE IN YOUSRELF




Believe in yourself and have faith in you
Believe in the things to be achieved in you
Faith takes a man places never imagined
A sea is deep and wide but the distance may can bridged
Life is borrowed, but can be lived satisfied
As heaven is real so does the will in you and I
As long there is a sun, hope can lift the spirit high
You can be a torch that light a path in the dark
Only when you believe in you will there be courage to fight
Courage to achieve all the things dreamt of inside
Life is a continuous perception of self
Man sometimes gets what he thinks the world has left
Or get more if believes he can cultivate the earth
Every difficulties and challenges has a threshold
As success toward life can be unfold

SOW A SEED





Have you ever thought of putting a smile on a strangers face?
Give arms to the blind begging on the street each day
Be a friend to a brother that's depressed and need someone to talk to
Find time to show love to orphans in the motherless home
Go to the prison and give hopes to the captive
Pray for a friend, a brother, a sister or a relative

When you make a promise, do you keep them?
Do you lend a helping hand when you come across someone in need?
How often do you have time to call or check up on a friend?
When you tell someone you love them,
Did you say it deeply out from your heart?
Are you fair when judging dispute between people?
Do you visit a neighbor who is sick and admitted at the hospital?
Spend time with her to show how much you care

How often do you call your parents to say thank you for taking care of you?
Do you often remember to thank and appreciate God for keeping you?
You've got to find time between life and work
Think soberly about the things you need to do
We've got the opportunity to show love to someone
We've got the privilege to help someone in need

We have to appreciate the things and people around us
No man can make it on his own without assistant and favors from God
Make time and get down on your knees, give thanks and appreciation to God
Find time out of your busy schedule and sow a seed
You can't tell how much you will be helping
To make the world a better place for you and me
