Up In Glory

When that time does come I will hear
Singing of the angels and their band
There I will walk with my sweet Jesus
Daily down along that Golden strand

What beauty there will be uncovered
Fragrance from the flowers fill the air
There to feel ease and comfort forever
Eternally in our Master's tender care

What feelings of adulation fill our soul
When we see that great Throne of God
As a multitude of people gather around
We see our great Savior smile and nod

Feelings of contentment shall fill my soul
Seeing my friends I had known from below
If tomorrow should be my time to leave here
I want my home to be up in Glory when I go

She Is going Home

In the quietness of the Funeral Home
Her small gray coffin was open to see
An old lady that was past her eighties
She is going home where she'll be free

Her life on Earth hasn't been very easy
Born into poverty in the nineteen twenties
Her education was was only the 8th grade
Some made dollars as she made pennies

She wanted better times that never came
Married to a dirt poor farmer who left her
She had those three little children to feed
Destitute, welfare became her only answer

Today she knows the beauty of Heaven
She has no need for their silver and gold
Heaven has provided her with all needs
Today her eternal life with God did unfold

His Many Powers

There is a home waiting for me in Glory
Up there where I will live for an eternity
No fears or trouble will arise in Heaven
It shall be a haven of rest for you and me

I dream of what my home will look like
Lots of marble all inlaid with pure Gold
There we will have what God provides
When we get to Heaven all things unfold

In the Bible we learn of His many powers
Where He can heal those with great pain
He can give the sight back to a blind man
To everyone a life eternal they can obtain

Could anything be more marvelous for us
If you believe, He will show you the way
To that home He has built for all eternity
Where we can meet with Him every day

Emotions

So many emotions a lifetime will bring
Cries of the baby wakes a sleepy dad
Although he needs a good night's rest
Birth of their first child makes him glad

A mother worries about her only son
He has been away for a year in the war
Praying to God to keep him from harm
Dreaming of him in her arms once more

A freckled face boy who is now twelve
Dreams of the ballgame he has today
Perhaps he will hit a grandslam homer
Or save the game with a defensive play

An old man looks upward toward Heaven
He thanks God for all he has had in this life
With five children who have all been good
But most of all for his sweet and loving wife

Beyond The Blue

If tomorrow never dawns in your life
What direction shall your soul take
Shall you enter into the fires of hell
Or will it be a life with God you make

He has said believe in me, be saved
Satan makes no such promise to you
Only the believers of God are saved
Words uttered from satan are untrue

Ask the good Lord for His forgiveness
For all the evil things you have done
He will bless you for your confession
Your start to an eternal life has begun

Without worry you can face tomorrow
God has made a home in Heaven for you
Tell Him in your prayers that you believe
He will give you a home beyond the blue

Heaven Will Be your Loss

Chain up those gates of hell
Walk with your Savior today
He will save your sinful soul
Confess to Him as you pray

His is the only way to Glory
Don't be misled by the devil
To find your way to Heaven
Read each page of the Bible

If you believe in our Savior
An eternal life you shall live
It is in that Holy city of Glory
A Home only God can give

Just walk on the right path
He then will stand by you
Show Him your good faith
That you will always be true

He has taken all your sins
When He died on that cross
If you listen to that lucifer
Heaven will be your loss

You Have Been blind

As I walk with my Lord on that narrow path
I have a feeling that thrills me unto my soul
My heart is light as I heed His sound advice
His words are true and they made me whole

I feel as if I am floating, my feet off that path
Still I can see Him as He walks along with me
Devotion to our Lord is without compromise
For one day up in Heaven with Him I will be

He tells me of all His love and compassion
For everyone here on Earth, not just a few
Believe in Him and you shall find that home
He has built there in Heaven for me and you

Take a walk with our Savior and talk each day
You will find it will give to you peace of mind
He will point you in the right direction my friend
You will realize to the truth you have been blind

Think As You Look

Soon the skies will darken upon my old world
I will hear trumpets calling me loud and clear
Great feelings come over me as I am listening
I can sense that my Lord up in Heaven is near

I am so glad that I found my dear Savior in time
For my soul would be headed in a different way
A sinful life I had led for so many years on Earth
Then I met God and I soon learned how to pray

I would walk and talk with Him in a Rose garden
Early in the morning when we could be all alone
He would tell me of Glories Heaven held for me
Saying my place in Heaven was etched in stone

Airy feelings would come with each step we took
As we walked on dew laden grass each morning
My friends if you are not walking with our Savior
That ugly devil will get to you without any warning

If you will listen He will tell it is written in the Bible
A way to my Fathers house is found in that Holy book
Read and understand for it tells you the way to go
All you need to do is open it and think as you look

It's God's Way

As I hear the storm outside that is raging
God has given me shelter from the storm
He has given me protection from the rain
Faith in my Lord will ever keep me warm

As the lightning flashes in the distant sky
I can hear the thunder rumble so very loud
Darkness fills what was a bright morning
As the sky now looks like one angry cloud

Slowly the clouds drift away and now are gone
Opening up a bright and sunny world to see
As birds again start singing their sweet songs
Tranquil feelings swirl about and engulf me

As the storm has now abated and passed on
New life seems to spring forth after the rain
God in His great widsom has done it this way
When we need some water He will do it again

Waiting For Glory

He still sits in the back pew of that old church
Following each word as the Pastor preached
Looking down at this worn out old black Bible
End of time for both had almost been reached

He had been coming alone for over ten years
Since his devoted wife's life had passed away
He thinks back to when he was a deacon here
Back when they attended on each church day

These hours at home are so lonely without her
He sits in his old rocking chair and falls asleep
Dreams then come to him with all of their beauty
These memories of their love that was so deep

He knows not when God will call him to Glory
Where once again he will be back with his wife
He will attend this Church now for each service
Until he is called to Heaven for his Eternal life

He Sings To God

They asked him not to sing in the choir
His voice had become rough and aged
What once was smooth with every word
Now made so many of the choir enraged

Yes he sang to God when he was alone
And he knew God heard a beautiful voice
Now to some he wasn't worth listening to
But thanks to our God they had a choice

These long years has passed and he is old
He still tries to find what was lost years ago
For he has the desire to sing those hymns
But his singing is just too course and low

He knows when Heavens portals are open
He will be welcome to sing a gospel song
Along with God's angels he will start singing
In that Heavenly choir where he will belong

Wake Up America

Wake Up America

I think back in time and I wonder
Where did it all go so very wrong
This country built on faith in God
Then was both healthy and strong

Today it is so hard to recognize her
This land made by the brave and free
It seems as if God doesn't exist here
Except for just a few like you and me

Are our dreams now like nightmares
For a country without God will soon fall
Empty promises now seem the norm
For a land that once stood so very tall

Can we get this mess back to reason
To me there is an answer this very day
America, wake up to our God in Glory
Then get down on your knees and pray
