That Greatest Land

I want to hear my name called up in Glory
Then to see my Savior standing by my side
To walk on those streets in God's Kingdom
It is in His wonderful Heaven I shall abide

While life on Earth sometimes was weary
In Heaven we shall never see a dreaded day
For God has provided us a peaceful Haven
It is up there I shall with Jesus forever stay

My heart is filled up with love for my Savior
No other shall ever enter my peaceful heart
He is the one who died for each of my sins
For His Eternal Kingdom I shall never depart

I fall down on my knees and praise our Lord
He will open the gates of Heaven and let me in
To this most Glorious home he has made for us
In that greatest Land that there has ever been

Where Will You Go

Have you been washed in the blood of the Lamb
Has your soul been cleansed and filled with love
If you have never met the One who saves our soul
Believe in Him for He has a home for us high above

Although we might tarry to call our Masters name
He still awaits your call from God's Heavenly place
Waiting to give you a mansion of beauty that's rare
Built by Him and filled with His love and His Grace

I know that one day His home shall also be mine
Where only the believers of Him will there abide
Goodness and happiness up there you shall find
Knowing our loving Savior will ever be by our side

If today God should call your name are you ready
To face your judgment and find where you will go
Be it to the land of unequaled love and friendship
Or to the lake of fire in the devil's hell down below

I Hear A Voice

 
As I wander through this life
I hear a voice from up above
It is shouting out my name
Filling up my heart with love

It is My Savior I hear calling
He wants to save my lost soul
If I listen to what He has to say
He again will make me whole

He has a place up there for me
I must listen  to Him every day
If I want to live up there in Glory
I must follow Him all the way

He has called and I must answer
Find the faith and to feel His love
Then I shall find my way to Heaven
To live in His mansion high above

One Of These Days

Let me walk through that peaceful valley
Where the stream flows wild and so free
Know that my Lord is walking beside me
His valley has much beauty for me to see

Banks of the stream shows lovely flowers
Many beautiful colors for our eyes to see
Majestic mountains reaching up to the sky
Flaming Red is seen on that tall Aspen tree

It is quiet is this valley as we walk there
Only the singing of birds do please our ear
Up along the mountains timberline is seen
A cub walking behind this large Black Bear

God has shown me all these things today
To Him I give all my love and all the praise
For it was His Son who has saved my soul
I'll meet Him in Heaven one of these days

The Same End

That old childhood church is still standing
Someone has decided to change the name
With the so many coats of paint on it now
To me it just don't seem to be the same

Boyhood years spent in that old Church
Brings back many good memories to me
We use cards to learn at Sunday school
Words and pictures for all us kids to see

I long to go back to those days gone past
In a world that seemed good and care free
It is a different world we are living in now
One that at times breaks my heart to see

It is so great to attend our church today
Where the people, members are a friend
Much like that church of many years ago
They both will bring us to the same end

An Afternoon Storm

I can hear the roaring of the thunder
As rain whips upon the window pane
Lightning flashes across the skyway
From the sky comes the falling rain

A mighty clap of thunder we can hear
Storm clouds ride low in the darken sky
Puddles of water form on the highway
Where just a few minutes ago was dry

As the storm passes to the East of us
Rumbling sounds can be faintly heard
Without heavy winds with this storm
Only rain has made leaves to be stirred

God knows why he gave us all this rain
It is needed to make all our crops grow
It also cooled what has been a hot day
Still I am very happy to see the storm go

Welcome Home

 
When we reach that Holy City in the sky
Jesus will meet us up at that Pearly gate
Trumpets will play to announce our arrival 
Seeing Heavens beauty was worth the wait

Never could we visualize here on Earth
What wonders that Holy Land will bring
God prepared the best for His children
Every day will be like a beautiful Spring

Angels, we will see playing their harps
As a choir sings their songs of great joy
So serene will be the this Eternal Land
God has provided for each girl and boy

We will see dazzling colors never seen
Bright will be Sunshine seen every day
Paths of His finest Gold we can walk on
Welcome home we shall hear Him say

In This Land

I want to walk on those streets of Gold
There with my Savior walking by my side
See all the beauty God has made for us
In Heaven where I shall eternally reside

I want to show Him all the love I have
That has been in my heart only for Him
Thank Him for saving my wrenched soul
Showing me the way as things were dim

I know He is the light and He is the way
Yes Jesus has been the only perfect man
It is through Him you can reach Heaven
He asks you believe and you surely can

So obey His word, do your best each day
Your home then shall be up there in Glory
To eternally live with our Lord and Savior
In this Land that He made for you and me

One Of A Kind

Have we lost it all here in America
Have we strayed too far from God
Will His wrath destroy all this land
Will we lose this most precious sod

A land built upon Christian principals
Have we forgotten what made it great
It was with the help of God Almighty
This point I want to make real straight

Our forefathers were fine religious men
Who opened all meetings with a prayer
It seems we have forgotten who we are
Perhaps it is that we simply do not care

Some day there will be an answer to it all
Will this country then wake up only to find
God had been patient long enough with us
We will lose a country which is one of a kind

He Is My Everything

One day I know I will meet my savior
We will walk upon that Golden shore
His Grace has saved my wrenched soul
I will suffer all these pains never more

To honor and obey Him is my promise
Each day I will thank Him for my soul
I will never fail to give Him the praise
For it is He that has made me whole

Do you have that feeling for our God
Love Him and confess all of your past sin
You too can walk that pathway with Him
He will open up those gates and let you in

My home will be with Him up in Glory
Living in a mansion that is fit for King
I can feel all the love that He has for me
He is my Savior, my God, my Everything

Heaven One Day

Each day brings me closer to Heaven
 It will be when life on Earth has gone
There to meet my Lord and my Savior
Walk with Him on Heaven's soft lawn

It is there I'll make my home forever
Up there where we will not grow old
See the land that will ever be eternal
Walk on a street made of pure Gold

Gather around to pray to God on high
See those who had gone on before us
Feel the comfort that Heaven affords
Meet our Lord and Holy Savior, Jesus

God has made us this wonderful place
He asks you believe in Him and pray
To honor his name, confess your sins
Will lead you up to Heaven one day

The Storm

I hear the roaring of the thunder
As God sends lightning in the air
Raindrops are now starting to fall
Small children it is starting to scare

I can hear the storm in all its fury
Large raindrops hit a window pane
Thunder so loud it shakes the Earth
Puddles form from the pouring rain

Wind is whipping against the house
As the rain falls heavily upon the roof
Another thunderclap is heard so loudly
Like it was made by a giant horses hoof

Rain is now coming in sheets of water
Pouring like buckets falling from the sky
I will sit and listen to all the noise it makes
I know not to ask our precious Savior why

God Is The Answer

There are times we will stumble and fall
Not knowing the direction we should go
We get off of the path that God gives us
We let ourselves wander both to and fro

That is the way the devil has to get to us
These times he will laugh at your failing
But if you will not listen to his many lies
Your life can be found as smooth sailing

God is the answer to all of your problems
Read the Bible and follow His Holy word
His love will lead you to an eternal Heaven
Angels play the sweetest music ever heard

God's plan for you is plain and you know it
Follow His teachings it will take you up there
To a great mansion found up there in Glory
An eternal home He has built high in the air

My Heavenly Home

When that last breath of life has passed
Up that Golden staircase I shall ascend
I will then meet the One Who made me
He is not only my maker, He is my friend

Although this life on Earth can be difficult
Keep in mind what is waiting for us ahead
God has built for us a grand home up there
Where we shall not find difficulty or dread

Jesus took on our sins if they were His own
He died upon that old cross for you and me
His blood washed away sins of the believers
He created Heaven, a Place we could be free

So if today should be the day He calls for me
They will place this Earthly body under the sod
Soon then to ascend up to my Heavenly Home
There to kneel at the throne of a loving God
