A Praise To London

A Praise to London


To all of London’s folks who travel each
     day on their famous “under ground”
Yes praise you our London Town as we ride our 
carriages in safety, ease and comfort each lovely day

Oh yes on our daily tasks it might be to school to 
our work, or maybe, to some place just to play.

Certainly to us you are something very special as 
you weave close to the river, the sea, or by the bay.

Yes. when at the end of a busy week you will take 
us to our places of rest and worship where we can pray.

Yes when some unkind folks wanted to hurt our London
Town more then ever now we know what we need to do.

We'll stand shoulder to shoulder with conviction and courage
to heal our mighty land to protect her each day through.

Yes to our mighty London Town we will never give in to the few
who think they can hurt us, to TRY. to make us feel sad and blue.

Our prayers and thoughts of love are with us as we stand against 
our foes,. Oh London Town, to you we will always be very true.

In a Twinkling of An Eye

In a twinkling of an eye, 
God can take away the fear 
of no more sweet bye and bye
and wipe away all tears of a cry. 
In a twinkling of an eye God can
take away all sadness of a sigh.
and all doubts that He’ll 
not meet us in the sky.
In a twinkling of an eye God can 
take away all evil thoughts of a lye.
And all the worries that 
causes us to ask why? 
In a twinkling of an eye, God can take
Away the anger from you and I
And all the things that
don’t allow us to try..

America God Is Asking You To Call

America, God is asking you. to call before 
into the hands of the hated one you will fall.
Yes America please look to God as He wants 
us just to pray even if we are walking in a mall.
0 America, it makes no difference where we are 
In the field or with our mends having a ball.
My goodness we can be in a small place of worship 
or in a. in a great cathedrals very spacious hall..
We just need to remember that we have a loving 
God and unto His name He just want us to call.

Ah Spring

Ah, Spring is every where yes it’s on the buds of
the trees as the winters bareness they soon erase.
We find it in the white billowing clouds, floating by
to bring us the rain falling with a heavenly embrace
We hear it in the laughter of children as they play 
their games we see the happiness in each smiling face
We find it in lovers walking hand in hand in the park 
Or in others as they are just jogging at a very slow pace.
It’s surly with someone resting on a bench or a porch
maybe knitting or sewing something -with pretty lace.
No matter what we are doing to enjoy our “ah spring”
we know that God gave it to us with all of His Grace

When Jesus Knocks

When Jesus knocks and we hear Him loud and clear 
do we open the door to let Him in or do we turn away?

Yes or do we let Him into our lives for a just a little
while? Or  maybe we say  please don’t over stay.

Oh, when Jesus knocks we need to open the door
wide and let Him make our hearts sing and sway.

Oh yes when Jesus knocks at our door only we can 
open it up to let Him in so we can see His golden ray.

Yes Jesus is knocking at our door to bring us peace and
comfort to share with us each beautiful hour every day.

So when we hear Jesus knock, remember, only we can
open the door to invite Him, all we need to do, is pray.

A Poets Dream

I had to stop just to look it was a
picture that I have never seen before. 

It was of flowers, trees, mountains and 
rivers that were rushing on to the shore. 

A sunrise to start a new day, and a sunset with 
it's colors into our lives, they always pour. 

It's a picture from God that for us 
He has painted it to last forevermore. 


Can words of a poet or the brush of an artist 
capture the beauty that God wants us to see? 

Yes the beauty of Gods greatness is 
all around us and it is always free. 

With all the golden grains of the harvest 
or the fresh blossom of a lovely new tree. 

Just look and see, Gods world has a 
beauty all of it's own that forever it will be. 


Wonderful Words that come from God, to 
be written always can make a sad heart beam. 

It might be words to some one sad to bring 
a friendly smile and to their eye a gleam. 

Or the picture we see when someone is 
praying for us to be on Gods winning team. 

Yes, we know that God is in our lives 
forever and He will supply a poets dream.

Thank God For This Day

All of our yesterdays thoughts of, Can I, or I wonder if, or what will I do-   
all gone like a puff of smoke blown in the air, God has taken them all away.

Tomorrows worries, or I wonder, are not here yet, we don’t know what tomorrow 
will bring, however we know when see the sun in the east, tomorrow is now today. 

Today is the day we live in, it’s the day we need to do what ( with Gods help) we feel 
we want to accomplish, with prayer and praising God, we will find just for us,- the 
right way.

Yes now we know what God has for us, it sure is not yesterday!  We cant see tomorrow!  
that leaves  Just today! SO- for this minute, this hour, and this day, thank God and 
pray!

A Millionaire

In Gods Heaven we will never need diamonds or pearls 
We will only need Gods wealth that He will gladly share.

We will not have a need for the sparkle of silver or 
Gold Only the brightness of Heaven will ever compare.

On our Journey to Heaven there is not a ticket 
to buy or not one cent is needed to pay the fair.

Yes in Gods Heaven we will be rich even 
with out a dollar we will all be a millionaire.

A Guiding Light

A Guiding Light

Out of the dark of night there 
was a very special light.

to guide the Angels in flight
As people watched in pure delight.

As the Savior was born and now 
the world would be just right.

People brought Him gifts 
and placed them by a tree.

He is here now for 
you and for me.

A smile was on the face of His 
mother that was plain to See.

For she new her Son would 
set the whole world free.
