My Grandma

Everything is quiet now in her little cottage
Its been that way since grandma passed away
Memories of my grandma will last a lifetime
I can remember her wonderful smile every day

Grandma would read from her Bible daily
For her God she always said a kind word
As she sang in the church choir years ago
Hers was the sweetest voice that we heard

Time passed and she grew old I suppose
I noticed how she would forget some things
One thing she remembered was her Bible
She loved reading verses of 1 and 2 Kings

At grandma's funeral there were many friends
Lying beside her was that old bible she read
I know grandma must be there in Heaven now
God has listened to everything grandma said

Why God Made Spring

Blue skies follow the rain
Sun brightens up the sky
A scent of fresh air comes
Soil is wet that was so dry

Sun gives warmth to the air
Rain will make plants grow
Beauty is seen in these hills
Its is this land that I love so

God created beauty we see
In Springtime it comes alive
After the ravishes of winter
We see nice weather arrive

God created Spring for us
So life could be resurrected
Plants died in the frigid air
Come alive as it's expected

Keep Your Faith

Tho our days can be weary at times
Days when many things go wrong
Keep your faith in our Savior Jesus
His miracles are always very strong

When things get you heavy at heart
Prayer can chase your troubles away
Spend some time talking to our Lord
Know that He is ever looking your way

For you know we are children of God
Follow the teachings He gives to you
His heart is ever overflowing with love
Will you return His wonderful love too

See the brightness of a new day break
Watch as the Sun rises in all its Glory
Look to the sky, see all its magnificence
Look closely for it shall tell you a story

My Last Breath

Wisps of fog raise with the morning Sun
Another beautiful day is coming our way
I know God must delight to see our face
For the frigid Winter He has taken away

Gone is the dreariness of a long Winter
Suddenly Green has replaced the Brown
Springtime now will show all of her glory
With the leaves and flowers as her gown

We can now hear the whirring of mowers
As the lawns are growing at a rapid pace
Deep Green, where we used Turf Builder
Dodging raindrops sometimes is the case

Isn't it just a marvel how God has done it
Giving us all this wonderful life after death
Much like the awakening of the Springtime
My Eternal life will start with my last breath

The Beauty Of Springtime

Our hills are coming alive in their green finery
Winter with its cold weather is gone and past
Warm temperatures have brought the leaves
Springtime has now arrived and is here at last

Gone is the harshness we see with Wintertime
Mild will be the days that April will now bring
It is so exciting to see the flowers being reborn
God has made everything beautiful in Spring

Lawns are being groomed with expectations
Of being the best in the whole neighborhood
With a combination of fertilizer and lots of rain
Most all the lawns will look exceedingly good

Springtime is the most exciting part of the year
It is when from dead of Winter, Spring arrives
Reminds us of the resurrection of Jesus Christ
Who, of course we know in Heaven surrvives

Walk With Jesus

One day I will walk on those Golden Streets
My Great Master will walk along by my side
He will explain all those mysteries unknown
His love will fill my heart with wonderful pride

With all worldly thoughts gone from my mind
I will ask Him how I can serve Him even better
With a beautiful smile and His soothing words
He said son you have followed most every letter

Welcome to your eternal home I'll hear Him say
This is my promise that I gave to you so long ago
You have been chosen for all your deep devotion
Where down on the Earth it had continued to grow

This is the home that I have prepared for you
No more pains, worries, or cares shall you see
My land I have made for all of my true followers
Throughout all of eternity you will ever be free

Our Easter

With Sunrise services at seven
We must hurry to beat that bell
Breakfast we will eat then leave
To our church we all love so well

Sunday school will start at nine
Church services at half past ten
We will hear a beautiful cantata
By our choir of women and men

A day we give reverence to God
In remembrance of His only son
Jesus Christ died on a wood cross
So victory over sin would be won

With His ascension up to Heaven
He showed we could die, but still live
In that most Holy and sweet forever
If only to Him our hearts we do give
