Sworn together by my troth my May bride
when joined were glad hearts on eternal date -
Rome did not fall nor the planets collide
and blessed by the Fates we did celebrate.
You wore pearls, rings of emerald and gold,
and girl, you and I an earthly child bore -
O’ Venus, heed my words that I have scrolled
for we were once the gods of Love and War.
No tempter’s dragoon, no fool’s inaction
will keep me apart or sworn vows undo,
and without further lapse or infraction
I rededicate my life unto you.
Keep me close and tight in your loving arms
and in the rescue of your mortal charms.

a decision;
To recommit, to be giving;
My entire devotion;
I'm approaching;
I'm a ride walk on the ocean;
I'm going to rededicate myself to my God;
And from all my disclosures;
I am truly blessed Beyond measures;
I am going to ride on the oceans;
Walk with the portion of God;
And I am being blessed;
Beyond blessed;
And I am fully energy by my Father's heart;
And His love as I keep on breathing;
My eyes awaken;
And daily I am assured;
In assurance that I am fully wonderfully,
and gracefully loved;
From the Father in Heaven above;
Hallelujah Glory until My Lord;

Recalibrate, rededicate, remotivate
Life calls on us to demonstrate
that we will not quit, give up, or surrender
not become down-and-out dead-enders
So suck it up, stand erect, take the bull by the horn
at the crack of dawn, milk the cow, shuck that corn
we leave the world
to love each other
and focus on what we forgot
we heal each other
to find happiness again
and take back what was lost via progressing times
we sit still
and look at ourselves in individual mirrors
and hold hands as we tell ourselves about our self
as the tears flow
we rededicate our love for one another
and return to the world refreshed and ready for work that will never be finished
Lord I've borrowed this body,
you given me;
Lord I should rededicate,
Sanctify become once again, clean;
you given me.
Free will, Free choice,
Please Father O Lord listen unto me my voice;
This body you've loaned me;
you given me.
Please renew,
Forgive me my faults,
you given me, free will a choice;
To be eternally free and not lost.

Today I faithfully promise to praise my LORD and
Savior, Jesus Christ, God's only beloved Son.
This Thursday, October 04, 2018,
I have become exactly sixty-four years young.
And my new life in Christ Jesus has only really
just begun. Today I rededicate my earthly life,
to faithfully honoring and serving my wonderful
LORD and Savior. Jesus Christ.
To him I faithfully pray, while thanking him
my free gift of yet another birthday. If I
could ask him for just one birthday wish,
I would ask him faithfully for world peaceful harmony!
I would ask he would put an end to warfare among
the nations of the world. Preserving tomorrow for
the yet unborn little boys and little girls.
World peace and prosperity can not redeem
our souls. We can redeem them for either
silver or gold. Just as my birthday is free,
so is Jesus Christ's gift to humanity!
When all of God's special children are finally set free.
And learn the ways of warfare no more. Jesus
Christ has given people an open door of
opportunity! The gift of everlasting life is free!
Love in Christ Jesus!

The student wasn't doing well,
his grades were really bad!
His father looked him in the eye,
and said, "son, dammit I'm mad"!
"You have such great potential,
it's a shame to see you fail!
If you rededicate yourself,
I know you will prevail"!
So he changed his study habits,
and to himself, avowed,
to attain a higher level,
and make his parents proud!
So he had to change his attitude,
to accomplish such a deed,
and with the faith his parents showed in him,
he was able to succeed!

Christ looks down at me, from the cross.
Tears flow from my eyes, my soul feels lost.
I did not deserve you from the start.
Sinful weeping, overspills from my heart.
Time after time I have hurt you, with my sin.
Why, you still loved me, I cannot comprehend.
You have always been there, loving me..
I feel ashamed, I haven't followed faithfully.
I rededicate my life and will give you my all.
Knowing you will be pick me up again, when I fall.
