From heaven’s heart, a gift was freely given,
A love so vast, it opens wide the gate of heaven.
He sent His Son to walk this earthly sod,
To bear our pain, to show the way to God.
Whoever trusts, no darkness need they fear,
For hope and life eternal now draw near.
No soul is lost who looks upon the cross,
For grace redeems what once was bound in loss.
So let us cling to mercy’s gentle light,
And live in love that makes the whole world right.
What humans call ‘Good Friday’
Should be named
A ‘Bad Friday‘ for Jesus
Our brother
Who bravely died for our sins.

Lok at me, and look at me again,
do look again, now look deep within
I smile through tears, I bear all your pain!
trust in me and let me wash your sins,
cross I carry is of your burden
blood you see is your blood through my skin!
path I walk on are hardship laden,
the lashes that cut me hate smitten,
I take pain so your visions widen!
from the day the apple was bitten,
evil has coursed through all of your lives,
I come to redeem thee, it’s written!
lashes bite like million bees from hives,
they may crucify me high with nails,
trust in god for he takes what he gives!
be amongst you ever in spirit,
look at me, and look at me again,
reborn, see me in each child there is,
I smile through tears, I bear all your pain!

WHEN CHRIST WAS BORN
Though Christ was not born on Christmas day
And Wise men came later with gifts
He did come and live on earth
As child and grown man
But so few of men
Who live today
know Him
well
The
Son of
God and man
But those who do
Still raise their voices
Declare his precious love
Warning in these final days
God is coming to take those home
Who prepare their lives and hearts in ways
That show they know what His birth truly meant

Never eager for glory
less be piece of history
God's son my inventory
They say the One who loves me most
Is nothing but a hoax
They say the God who gave me breath
Is just a wise old anecdote
They say I lack accountability
And self-esteem, and truth
But I know the wretched man I am
I need no further proof
Yet who are they to say
Christ’s loving hands weren’t pierced for me?
Can they take back the alabaster
That anointed Him to bleed?
Can they not see I am indebted?
For I was never worth the cost
I might as well have been the Roman
Who nailed Him to the cross
He could have left me as a wicked man
To die and then be gone
But by His blood and sacrifice
I became a son of God
1 John 3 New (NKJV): 3 "Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God!..."

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr.©2018
Jesus came and walked upon the earth
here He claimed to be God's son
what was this that was happening?
God in human flesh truly this was done
This God-man walked about doing good
healed the sick, showed a power unknown
performing miracles all around being God
this truly was mighty deeds being sown
It really astounds one to think upon
God our creator among His creation
walking on water, feeding five thousand
there was no end for great His station
God had a greater plan upon the earth
being the son He came here to die
paying sacrificially for all our sins everyone
then rising from death to return on high
What a fact the son of God incarnate
this is simply amazing for to ponder
that Jesus is God the eternal one
our creator made all in the great blue yonder
(This was why the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God.')
John 5:18 (ESV)
Juices of a Jovial mood drips from out of his heart
January to July he cannot be Jammed
try Jeopardise his security; you'll deal with JESUS
Big Bouncing Baby Of Beauty
Born Bigger By the Blood Of JESUS
Big and Bouncing Above Average
Embedded with a Blessed Outstanding Ability
Separated Set Apart Select and Sealed
With a Certain Status that is Second to none
He exceeds the highest position in the scale quality
Over two thousand years ago it was
when the son of God physically died
there history tells this undoubted truth
Jesus Christ sacrifice salvation applied
The people there cried out to see
that this Jesus be put to His death
but was it only them that did this?
no, ALL who lived took His last breath
WE were all there that dayat Calvary
yes YOU crucified the son of God
rejecting His love, grace and mercy
think we're innocent when we're fraud
But such is the depth of God's love
it reaches down to even such as WE
even there Jesus cries forgive them
nailed He was upon cruel's Calvary's tree
This gospel still applies even today
even though YOU put saviour on the tree
He offers His love from sins bondage
receive Him now salvation full and free
('And they crucified him' Mark 15: 24) )
He's the Son of God and he was the greatest man who ever lived.
He's compassionate and he has always been willing to forgive.
He's the Son of God and his blood was collected in the Holy Grail.
Jesus died for Mankind's sins, he died so that we won't go to Hell.
He's the Son of God and his death brought a lot of tears.
They nailed him to the cross and impaled him with a spear.
He's the Son of God and in certain Bibles, his words appear in red.
He was in agony as he was crucified and then sadly, he was dead.
He's the Son of God and he rose from his tomb after he died.
They couldn't end Christ's existence even though they tried.
He's the Son of God and he could resurrect the dead and make the blind see.
Because he's so wonderful, he means a lot to you and he means a lot to me.
Sing Allelujahs
All stars in the midnight sky.
Giving God all praise!
Jesus our Saviour
Wonderful King of All Kings
Son of God Most High.
Son of the morning.
A lily of the valley
Bright and morning star
Fairest of the fair
Mighty warrior, Valient Prince
Glory be to God!
I wonder what it was like in the
days of Adam and Eve…
The fellowship they had until the day
they had to leave.
What a blessing it must have been
to have a Godly communion…
As they were joined together
in a Godly union…
Their love for God must have been
evident and strong.
Until the day sin crept in
where it didn’t belong.
Satan. The serpent… Told them that
they would become “wise…”
Soon afterward, they realized
it was a bunch of lies…
They were cast out of a beautiful
and wonderful place.
But were within the reach
of God’s unlimited grace!
From Eve’s seed, would one day
be born the Messiah and king.
Whom… One day… Shall rule as
Lord of everything!
This fellowship between God and
man can be YOURS today!
Please listen to the words
our savior has to say!
Because of Jesus’ sacrifice on
the cross… You are invited!
Won’t you come to HIM now?
Your future has been provided!

The Son of God.
Are you the Son of God?
Do you wish to be?
To make heaven on earth.
For all to see.
Were you born to be.
The Son of God for eternity?
Do you live a sinless life?
Free from ties and strife.
Do you love all men?
Free from hate or greed.
Self sufficient and alone.
God is looking for the perfect one.
To be his Son.
When found with a mighty roar.
Great changes will occur.
Time and space will end.
Man will be as one.
For ever more.
A human link to God there will be.
Related, loved and close to He.
Rejoicing will fill the earth and sky.
Heaven on earth for you and I.
