She placed her breath, inside of me
Our souls and spirit, covenant
Yet aroused the flesh rose
We die, in ourselves
Get down laid the powers
The heat of flesh rising
This so not our truest self
You see…
St Matthew 26:41The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak

• ST. MATTHEW 21:22
WooH OH, I BELIEVE
Yes! I do believe
I receive, I receive, I believe
I can do all things, I can do all things, I can do all things
Through God that strengthens me
Believing prayer is powerful
God is the answer, Jesus is the answer
My Lord, believing our prayers is powerful
The promises of God are yea and nay
Hallelujah
You will receive it,
In alignment with God’s will
When it’s in His will, you will
Receive it, Hallelujah
Father allows us to do miraculous things, In Him
Unwavering trust in Him, it’s Him
Prayers align with His purpose
We are His servants, we praise Him He’s our surface
WooH OH, I BELIEVE
Yes! I do believe
I receive, I receive, I believe
I can do all things, I can do all things, I can do all things
Through God that strengthens me
Believing prayer is powerful
God is the answer, Jesus is the answer
My Lord, believing our prayers is powerful
The promises of God are yea and nay
Hallelujah
You will receive it,
In alignment with God’s will
When it’s in His will, you will
Receive it, Hallelujah

I must have a generous heart
I once was a foreigner, an upstart
Now I am birth-born again
Now I am a new and changed man
I must have a forgiving spirit
I must listen to peoples pleads and cherish
All their cries and wailings
I must keep God’s commandments
I must have a generous heart
I once was a foreigner, an upstart
Now I am birth-born again
Now I am a new and changed man
This I must do, why, because
I will be treated as I have been treating others

St. Matthew 7:2
He isn’t here;
He isn’t here;
He HAS RISEN;
Jesus has given
Given His Spirit, back to the Father
He has callin His reign on Hold
For He’ll be coming back
He shall be back
To march His army of angels
He will be back
Yes, He’ll be back
It is set in stone
He isn’t here;
He isn’t here;
He HAS RISEN;
Jesus has given
Given His Spirit, back to the Father
Heaven and Earth He’ll rule
He is risen, from the dead
Just as He said
Would happen rose He raised up high
He is risen from the dead, yet alive He shall rise
He is risen, He is risen
Come see where he laid
Yet, He’s risen He’s no longer here
He isn’t here;
He isn’t here;
He HAS RISEN;
Jesus has given
Given His Spirit, back to the Father

-St. Matthew 7:8
I am unjust;
But with a touch;
A right choice;
I'll obey, change my way;
For in the same way;
On this day...
I will let my good deeds shine;
Shine out for all to see;
So that everyone will praise;
The Father,

O Mary, why do you weep;
It's just as He said
HE IS NOT GONE HE IS RISEN
O disciples why do you speak
It's just as He said;
HE IS NOT GONE HE IS RISEN
People of the nations, why do you disbelieve
The angel confirmed what Jesus said..
He isn't here!
He is risen!
HE IS NOT GONE HE IS RISEN
Risen from the dead!
Just as He said would, happen
Come, come inside the grave see where His body was laid
He is not here, He has risen, risen,
HE IS NOT GONE HE IS RISEN
He isn't here!
He is gone risen!
HE IS NOT GONE HE IS RISEN
From the dead, risen
Just as he said!
He's not dead!
HE IS NOT GONE HE IS RISEN
Alleluia Our Lord has risen
On this day over two-thousand years ago today
Our Lord and Savior has...rose

Pray more worry less
About the things of this world
God’s got this
And as caretakers we are
Doing a poor job
Help us Lord
Our pure is poison
For our poison is pure
Going back to Jesus is the cure
God’s blessings are never ending
And for this I am assured
Pray more worry less
About the things of this world
God’s got this
And as caretakers we are
Doing a poor job
Help us Lord

Inspired from St. Matthew 6:34
What would I have to do
And what would happen
If I would just ask
Then I will then receive
And if I would just stop, rest, and breathe;
Then I'd believe
So ask just ask God just ask Him
for what you need, what you want
What do you need of...just ask
What are you seeking
What are you hoping for dreaming
If I would just ask
Then I will then receive
And if I would just stop, rest, and breathe;
Then I'd believe
Just wait and receive may come instantly
Or later on in time
So ask just ask God just ask Him
for what you need, what you want
What do you need of...just ask
Wait and believe then receive
All this sounds physical which can be
but it can be also be spiritual
It's all in His word that
If you knock, the door shall be opened
Then I'd believe
If I ask just ask God just ask Him
for what we need, what we want
All I need do is you need of...just ask
All we need to, do is just ask

TAKE
Take no thought on tomorrow
Tomorrow is for tomorrow
And it thinks for itself
And take Jesus foe He says
Take this yoke upon
Allow the Son to give and not take
He's our redeemer for heaven sake
My Lord also says take and eat of His bread
Feed of my body consume it into your soul
Take my yoke upon you
Take my yoke upon you
Take my yoke upon you
It's gonna make you whole
Take and take heed Jesus yoke upon you
Take heed that you do not your alms before men
Be aware and careful...
Take

St.Matthew 6:25
PRAY MORE WORRY LESS
when you're just talking to Jesus
And you just can't believe it
Pray more worry less
when things on the job go long and wrong
And you just can't believe it
Pray more worry less
when based in problems
none of them you can't solve them
Pray more worry less
no job
hardly enough money
by yourself,lonely
Pray more worry less
when the pains of life get you down
and your passions for life can't be found
when based in problems
none of them you can't solve them
Pray more worry less
when things on the job go long and wrong
And you just can't believe it
Pray more worry less

taken from
St. Matthew 6:34
written by James Edward Lee Sr.
In the beautiful, grand stillness
Of a place for the transcendent,
Like a lately-faded illness
Seems the ugliness of now,
And I dare not look behind me,
Lest the simpering of the finite,
In the form of unctuous daylight
Beat its hatred on my brow.
The solemnity enthralling
Captivates imagination,
And I hear the ages calling
That wed purity and youth;
And I dream, however briefly,
That the evils that surround me,
That the hostile world around me
Vanishes for want of truth.
