Ask Him

 
There is a special day in December
We sit aside for the birth of Jesus
He was born in a manger that night
God has sent his only son to save us

Born of a pure virgin, a perfect man
He took on our sins so we could live
An eternal life with Him up in Heaven
A life to every believer He would give

A life in Heaven is what we all want
To spend time with our Lord up there
To find out what we will experience
When we are in His ever loving care

To those that know Him shall love Him
They will know His love without doubt
If you want to know how to be saved
Ask Him, He will tell you what it is about

No In Between

If you knew Him you would love Him
His son died to save your sinful soul
He has built an eternal home for us
Saved from hell and made us whole

If you think all is lost just call on Him
He can hear your ever word you say
Confess all your sins and then tell Him
Your love for Him shall never go away

He built a home for you that is forever
Never shall you be left out in the cold
Listen to our great Savior as He speaks
Wonders of Heaven shall then be told

My home shall be in a far distant land
It is in a land no mortal man has seen
Only true believers will get to be there
For there can never be any in between

Living With God's Love

There will come a time I won’t be here
This sinful world will not be my home
I will ascend up to God’s beautiful City
From my Heavenly City I will never  roam

No longer will I face that Earthly sin
For Jesus died to take my sins away
What a wonderful feeling I now have
For I am living with God’s love today

If tomorrow that trumpet should call
It would be to a much better place I go
There I would get to live with my Jesus 
My love for him in Heaven I would show

If you want to make that trip to Heaven
There are some things that you must know
Ask your Savior as you pray to Him tonight
He will tell you what direction you must go

Home In The Sky

As I meet with you up there
It is happiness we will share
With all the friends we knew
We will meet others like you

We will sing the songs of glory
They will tell us an old old story
There to meet our friend Jesus
He is the one who has saved us

We must remember how He died
How some stood by Him and cried
While others mocked and partied
Many laughed as Jesus did bleed

It will be with joy when we meet
Our Savior who will smile and greet
Us as we reach our home in the sky
In that land where we shall never die

In His Eternal Care

There will come a day soon
When I shall meet my Savior
It is then He will reveal it all
My questions He will answer

His love He shall show to me
Love I will give Him in return
A home He has made for me
 Home that I shall have to earn

I have confessed to Him my sins
My belief in Him is without doubt
His Holy name is so precious to me
To Him my love will ever be devout

That day might be tomorrow for me
I shall be ready to meet Him up there
I will live with my Savior up in Heaven
Forever to be living in His eternal care

My Passionate Goal

To know my Master is with me
Brings joy into this sinful soul
For it was He who took my sin
That day He made me whole

Forever I shall bless my Savior
I will love Him like my brother
He is my strength and my light
He has compassion like no other

I shall meet Him one sweet day
On a pathway leading to the sky
He will then lead me to the City
There where no one will ever die

Knowing what lays ahead for me
Brings peace to my heart and soul
To be in Heaven with all of its Glory
Has always been my passionate goal

You Shall Forever Stay

 
I will have a life to live with Jesus
For all Eternity I shall be with Him
If I should miss out being in Heaven
My eternal life would be very grim

He has made me this eternal home
It was built with upmost perfection
It’s a haven of rest for His believers
Living there under God’s protection

Although I have never been sin free
Jesus took my sins if they were His own
When I confessed to Him He set me free
I am now the most peaceful I ever known

When you accept Him as your great Savior
All your Earthly troubles will soon go away
He will guide you on to that Promised Land
Up there with our God you shall forever stay

Summers Swan Song

I love to hear that September song
When cool evenings come around
Leaves soon will begin their falling
Tumbling from tree to the ground

Hot summer days will soon be past
Refreshing days will be on their way
A light soft rain is falling this morning
Farmers might get another cut of hay

Birds will start their flight to the South
They will avoid a harsh winters blast
Then to return home in the Spring time
This is their cycle that will always last

Autumn is coming with its lovely foliage
So many beautiful colors will dot the hills
Next month is when great things happen
So much beauty that to our mind fulfills

That Serene Valley

Today I gaze over that serene valley
I do visualize what Heaven might be
It is such a wondrous place He made
A beautiful place for both you and me

Tomorrow I shall see my eternal home
Greeted at the portal by my friend Jesus
He will welcome me home with open arms
To that land where we all will be ageless

He has made this place for all His believers
Who have asked forgiveness for their sins
Jesus will forgive their past transgressions
Their place in His Heavenly kingdom begins

Until that day He calls me to eternity’s shore
I shall go over to that beautiful valley and pray
I know He hears all of my prayers and answers
Telling me I shall live with Him one sweet day

A Royal Crown

Will you put off until tomorrow
What God wants you to do today
There may never be a tomorrow
You better do it while you may

Obey His word and be sure to listen
It is through Jesus we go to His City
A wondrous place where we gather
To hear Holy words for you and me

Only He knows when to call on you
To live with Him throughout Eternity
It may be tomorrow or could be today
Be prepared and it’s Heaven you’ll see

Don’t let another day pass without Him
Feel His love and return it with your own
He will show you the right path to be on
To win a precious God given Royal crown

Faith In Our Savior

I am so tired still I shall not wander
Soon the Lord will come to get me
He is the only salvation that I know
Faith in our Savior shall forever be

His love is forever, a love I’ll return
He has shown me the way to Glory
It is a home for all of His believers
A place filled with amazing beauty

If you will believe in His Holy word
You can live that life that is Eternal
Confess to Him all sins you committed
Always be sure to daily read the Bible

Your home shall be forever with Him
It will be a mansion He built for you
It is there we will gather to praise Him
Knowing His words shall ever be true

My Friends

 
Have you met my friend Jesus
He watches over us every day
He has ever lasting love for all
In your heart does His love lay

I want to live up there with Him
See the wonders Heaven shows
Walking through a Green garden
See a pretty Red Rose as it grows

Listen to Angels sing gospel music
Music played by a bluegrass band
Watch White fleecy clouds float by
Beauty is seen in this Heavenly land

I am hoping you have met my friend
For it is only through Him can you see
A wonderful land that is called Heaven
It is where I want all my friends to be

His City

There will come a day soon
When I shall walk by His side
Along that Golden pathway
In His City where I will reside

He has made this City for us
Believers who know He lives
A passage to His eternal City
It will be my reward He gives

Always to be near our Savior
I couldn’t bear to be apart
I know He loves His children
Love for Him is in my heart

Have you had that feeling
Knowing He is by your side
Walking in His lovely garden
There with Him I shall abide

copyright © 2015 By Acie

It Is God's Way

We come into this world with nothing
What we accumulate we leave behind
Heaven has no place for Earth’s wealth
It is there peace and comfort you find

God built His kingdom for you and me
To live without fear or worry of any kind
His love shall ever be there for everyone
It is good to keep my Savior in our mind

As the roll is called can you pass the test
Have you been faithful with friend Jesus
Get to enter into that eternal city forever
Will you live in Heaven with the rest of us

What you gain while you live on the Earth
Should be that He died to save us from sin
If you are true to our Savior and you believe
He can open a gate to Heaven and let you in

I Will Be Pain Free

Although I feel pain in this Earthly body
I know that Jesus will ever be by my side
Then one day He will meet me in Heaven
It is in His beautiful city that I shall reside

Then all pain shall leave and never return
For He will give me an eternal life to live
My belief in our Savior can’t be shaken
For it is a life up in Heaven He will give

I hope I see you up there one bright day
Where suffering will be a thing of the past
Jesus Christ shall be the great confronter
In this Heavenly life that will forever last

I know when God calls me I will be ready
To take the rewards He has waiting for me
I know I have been far from a perfect man
But up in Heaven it will a perfect one to see

Get To Know Jesus

 
If my burdens become heavy to bear
I know Jesus will see me through it all
It is the faith in our blessed redeemer
I know that He will ever hear every call

With arms wide open He will receive us
For He has love for each and every one
There is no other way to get to Heaven
Belief and in knowing Jesus gets it done

There will be a time when you need Him
So remember these words that you say
Lord please forgive me of all of my sins
It is your blood has washed them away

With Jesus I can never do evil things again
He will keep me straight and never do wrong
My faith in Him shall never waiver any now
My complete trust in Him shall ever be strong

Friend Jesus

Have you met my friend Jesus
He watches over us every day
He died to pay our sin penalty
Thank Him tonight as you pray

Born on this earth in poverty
With no need for Silver or Gold
He did live for over thirty years
How He died in the Bible is told

He arose from His Earthly grave
To His Heavenly home He did go
Waiting to greet all His believers
He is someone you need to know

Only through Him Heaven is ours
Confess sin and ask for forgiveness
His love for us shall be for eternity
For all our sins we will be blameless

copyright © 2015 By Acie

Choices

 
He gives us choices of things we can do
Many are simple but some are very hard
There are times we study them very long
While others would just simply disregard
  
If I pray to Him He gives me the answer
It might not be the answer that I desire
However I will ever abide with His word
For my gracious Lord my heart is on fire

With life many choices will come our way
Should we answer His call or just turn away
Live a life that is contrary to His judgment
Or ask forgiveness as to our Savior we pray

My choice is very clear I will follow my Lord
For it is to an eternal life with Him I shall live
When this hum drum life on the Earth is over
A place in God’s beautiful Heaven He will give

A New Life

When the pain of our life has ended
We shall be with our Savior up above
There to spend a new life in all eternity
Filled with God’s holy and precious love

This new life He has for us is so special
He has a kingdom for believers like us
Mansions that are so beautiful to see
A Golden pathway to walk with Jesus

Up there were we will ever hear singing
Songs sung by angels in sweet harmony
We will hear harps they are strumming
Those wonderful songs for you and me

So precious is our Heavenly Father to us
No matter what we have done in the past
If we confess sin and ask Him to forgive us
We can have a life that will eternally last

A Magnificent World

 
Beauty seen in the early morning Sun
Starts my day off with a wonderful smile
Knowing it is God who created the Sun
I stop to admire this wonder for a while

Tall trees seem to reach high in the sky
Casting lengthy shadows on the ground
A lonely cloud I can see on the horizon
A field full of White clover can be found

A small stream meanders along the field
A big hornets’ nest clings to an Oak tree
I have spent this beautiful morning alone
Knowing God will soon join up with me

He created this scene that I see this day
What a magnificent world He made for us
He then sent His son to save our sinful soul
Taking the death for our sins was son Jesus

My Friend, My Savior

 
Soon I will walk through the valley of death
I will meet my loving Savior on the other side
He will welcome me home with open arms
It is in a home He made for me I shall abide

He will provide me this home for all eternity
No rent but it shall be faith in Him I will pay
In His perfect kingdom there will be no pain
No dark clouds will ever hide His sunlit day

It is with love He will welcome me up there
He has taken my sins as if they were his own
Then died for my sins on that wooden cross
Showing us the greatest love we have known

I know I will be with Him through time eternal
For time in Heaven will never come to an end
I will praise Him for what He has done for me
Knowing that I could never find a better friend

copyright © 2015 By Acie

Door To Heaven

 
There is not a back door to get up in to Heaven
You must enter the front and Jesus has the key
He died on that old rugged cross for all our sins
So there could be an eternal life for you and me

His key will unlock beauty never seen by man
All the wonders we could never see but dream
Happiness will ever fill our spirit up in Heaven
He gives a promise to believers He will redeem

Find a place for Him in your heart to love Him
You will find He has unending love for you too
He has a place where we can have unending life
Heaven is waiting for Christians like me and you

Although life on Earth might be hard at times
Talk to Him in prayer for He will ever answer us
Listen to what He has to say then obey His word
You will never find a better friend than our Jesus

copyright © 2015 By Acie

Always With Jesus

I know my heart is always with Jesus
With Him it is happiness I now know
He has saved me from that old devil
Now some day up to Heaven I will go

Give Him your heart and find the love
That will show you the way up to Glory
There you will find him waiting for you
So that beauty of Heaven you can see

When I find the peace Heaven will bring
As I enter into that great city He made
I will bow to Him and pay a great honor
For the terrible price for our sins He paid

No greater friend could ever be found
A Kingdom He has made for us all to see
A grand array of flowers in all their beauty
Could be waiting for both you and for me

copyright © 2015 By Acie

I Wait For That Day

One day I shall see my loving Savior
When we gather around God’s throne
Find so many treasures up in Heaven
Down on Earth we had never known

With my dear friend Jesus by my side
Love will bring me to my knees in prayer
It is there I shall live a life that’s eternal
For I will forever be in God’s loving care

With all bondages of Earth left behind
I will never again suffer ravages of pain
Now He has cleansed my heart and soul
Sin will never enter in my thoughts again

Happiness I will see with Him up there
No time will storm clouds darken the day
Resting in the assurance of His protection
I wait for the day that He takes me away

Quiet Time

When the day turns to night and things are quiet 
I think about the promise God has given to us all
It is written that we can have a soul that is eternal
Knowing that He is the only God, we await His call

We were all born with that sin nature of the flesh
Jesus died taking our sins as if they were His own
He has made this great place that we call Heaven
It will show us beauty that we have never known

It is in these quiet times I enjoy talking to our Savior
He tells me of a life after death of the flesh He will give
Where all of His children who believe in His teachings
In that great eternal Kingdom with God they shall live

I can feel the joy as I think what He means to us all
Sending His only begotten son here to die for our sin
Then opening the gates to that beautiful city He made
Showing us all true worshipers would be welcomed in

Today as we face the world with a heavy heart
A father, grandfather, brother has passed away
Gone now to be reunited with the love of his life
Life in Heaven is beautiful I am sure he would say

Although it is so painful when a dear one leaves
Have solace knowing God has welcomed him in
To that lovely land where his life will be eternal
He now has no illness like on Earth it had been

Some day I know we shall see him up in Heaven
Walk with him on a pathway that is made of Gold
Forget all the trials and trouble we knew on earth
This is something that he would want us to be told

As we say goodbye to him I am sure he would say
Remember God has made this home that awaits us
Up there where only happiness shall we ever see
There to see the one who died to save us all, Jesus

Yes We Love Jesus

 Camp Son Rise is a church camp owned by Shawnee Hills Baptist
 Church near Portsmouth Ohio

Have you talked to your friend Jesus today
Did you tell Him how you love Camp Son Rise
You know He is so happy to see you here today
But you know that should not be a big surprise

He has a heart full of love for each one of you
Can you feel the love in your heart for Jesus
He died on that cross and took on all our sins
Showing the love He has for every one of us

If you have never talked to our friend Jesus
There is something you need to do every day
To find the greatest friend you will ever know
Ask Him to save your soul and to Him do pray

He knows each and every one of you by name
He wants to see you one day up in Glory land
If you love Him as you know that He loves you
Don’t you want to tell Him now that is your plan

Our Pot Of Gold

 Camp Son Rise is a church camp owned by Shawnee  Hills Baptist Church in Portsmouth Ohio area. No child has to pay a penny to attend camp. The rainbow's end was on the ground of the camp.

A beautiful scene we all saw yesterday
After the storm clouds had left the sky
The Sun peeked out and shined brightly
Causing a rainbow and we wonder why

Was it something God was showing us
This spectacular vision that we all saw
Beautiful colors were caused by the Sun
Shining through raindrops we seen fall

Although this beauty lasted but minutes
It captured the attention of all around
Because one part of the rainbow did end
On Camp Son Rise, part of God’s ground

Was God showing us He approves of you
Was it something that needs to be told
Camp Son Rise a great place to find Jesus
He is showing us it is really our pot of Gold

An Old Friend

 
There is an old friend I want you to meet
You can’t see Him but He will talk to you
He is the great Creator and Father of all
His kingdom is far beyond our sky of Blue

I speak to Him in a prayer day and night
Tell Him of love I have deep in my heart
Having confessed the sins I did commit
Nothing can keep my Jesus and I apart 

When a day comes that He calls me away
Happiness will ever fill this believer’s soul
I praise the day that I met my redeemer
By knowing Him, He has made me whole

When I think of what He has done for me
I know I would be nothing without my Lord
He died to give me an eternal life with Him
In my heart love of Him will ever be stored

copyright © 2015 By Acie

So Much Love

 
If you will turn to our loving God
You will feel comfort in your soul
Listen to His word and then obey
Heaven’s gate should be your goal

He has made a place of eternal rest
He wants all of His children to find
No sorrows will we ever find up there
There we shall know a satisfied mind

When our days on this Earth are over
We shall gather around God’s throne
Hear the angels as the sweetly sing
Find the truth we have never known

If today should be the day we meet
With you up in Heaven far up above
Feel the joy that will fill your heart
Know for you God has so much love

He Blessed America

Lord show me the peace that is in Heaven
Take away the trials and troubles of the day
Help me to understand what is happening
To what was a God fearing country the USA

Seems we have thrown away all He gave us
To live in a sin filled world that we have today
He blessed America with freedom and hope
But without caring we have thrown it all away

We have turned our backs on our Holy Savior
We somehow have lost sight of what we are
God gave us the greatest country ever known
I wonder if there are times we just don’t care

America will you wake up and show Him love
Ask Him to forgive us for all these sinful ways
Will He give us time to get things back in order
Do we have that much time left, that many days

Yesterday Is Gone

 
Yesterday is gone never to be again
Tomorrow is not a given fact for us
Be prepared for what this day brings
It might be the day you meet Jesus

Nothing is certain in this Earthly life
Except one day this life will be over
Put in a box and buried in the ground
A lifeless body underneath the clover

Gone from the grave the spirit will leave
Either to go up to Heaven or down to hell
If you have met God and have repented
Then your life up in Heaven will be well

Be prepared for that day as it surely will be
Jesus paid the penalty for our sin on the cross
Believe in Him and confess all wrong doings
Don’t let what He did for you to be a loss

Red, White, And Blue

 
I think about what was the United States
It was a great country once loved by God
Found on the true belief in our freedom
Through years we have fought for this sod

Many loyal people laid down their lives
To keep this beautiful land great and free
Sad to see what is happening to her now
Many freedoms are lost for you and me

Time stands still for not either you nor me
Changes are made now without our consent
It seems what the people want doesn’t count
Even our Constitution is now broken and bent
 
We want God to bless this our country America
Yet we have lost sight of what we need to do
We need to get back to putting God in our lives
Then He may again bless the Red, White, and Blue

copyright © 2015 By Acie

It Is with Sadness

It is with sadness we are losing her
This land born under God and free
We no longer are true to our God
How can we the majority let this be

There are some who just don’t care
Our freedom they would trade away
Is it too late now to get Him to help us
We need to fall down and loudly pray

With courts split on important issues
Seems we have long forgot God’s word
They tell us same sexes can be married
Nowhere in the Bible is that ever heard

If we are to save this our beloved country
I truly believe it is all up to us who love her
Get back to the ideals which she was found
Get our USA back to where we once were

Asking His Forgiveness

As the Sun rises above the distant hill
It is another day God has given to me
To atone for the sins I have committed
So I may have life thereafter with Thee

Pleasant is this wonderful day He gives
No troubles or torment will be in view
We will heed the words He has spoken
To our precious Lord we are ever true

His is a kingdom we all seek to go there
Knowing He loves and He will protect us
Only perfection will we ever see up there
We will meet and talk with a friend, Jesus

Although some do not have the time for Him
Either they don’t believe or just do not know
He has this wonderful place waiting for them
Asking His forgiveness to Heaven they can go

A New Birth

There is a better home that waits for us
When this life on Earth is gone and past
No more suffering will we know up there
Our days with Jesus shall eternally last

We shall walk along with our Devine Savior
We thank God we had listened to His word
Knowing then all the love we had for Him
Realizing the faith of everything we heard

How He saved my soul was so marvelous
His love came into my heart one lovely day
Showing me there is only one place for me
For a place in His eternal kingdom I do pray

Life is beautiful if you place your trust in Him
He will guide you from this ugly sinful Earth
To a place He has made for all His believers
It is up there we shall then have a new birth

No Room For Anger

Today I am so tired and I am weary
I don’t have many more years to go
Before I reach that city up in Heaven
As faith in our loving God does grow

As time goes fleeing, where did it go
Youth seemed to last but a short time
Those were happy years as I now recall
We thought they would last us a lifetime

Midlife passed without very much thought
Then one day we woke up and we were old
Things just don’t seem to be like they were
Feet that once were so warm are now cold

I know soon my Savior will be calling to me
Come home my son your Earthly life is over
I have prepared a home for your eternal life
It is a happy place there is no room for anger

We Have A Choice

 
Do you know where you are going
When you leave this world behind
Have you met our Lord and Savior
Or to Him are your thoughts blind

You know He made you from dust
Back to dust your body will return
Will you then ascend up to Heaven
Or go down to hell and forever burn

With God’s creation we have a choice
Follow Him and listen to His ever word
Or you can ignore all of His teachings
Pretend it is something we never heard

Which way you decide to go is up to you
Live a life in serenity and peace forever
Or battle the old devil in a burning hell
There your chance of leaving hell is never

copyright © 2015 By Acie

Final Victory Won

I want to go to heaven when this life is over
I want to walk with Jesus on eternity’s shore
Shout and sing there with all my conviction
I shall be free from all my sins forevermore

He has given me a choice which way to go
Believe in Him and have an everlasting life
Or face the old devil in a place is called hell
To there be burdened with trouble and strife

What would you have to lose with our Savior
An eternal life with our loving Jesus that is all
Know that He wants you with Him in Heaven
Believe in Him and soon you will hear His call

If today you haven’t met him it’s time to pray
Tell Him that you want to be there in Heaven
That you want to know Him and to love Him
Let Him help you to get your final victory won

copyright © 2015 By Acie

What Wonders

What wonders He bestows upon us
Making breath live in a body of dust
How precious it is to know our Savior
Believe and know in Him you can trust

Truth lays in every word that He utters
Pay attention and follow His Holy word
His love has no bounds and is unyielding
His voice is the sweetest we ever heard

One day soon He will call me up to heaven
Where I shall be reunited with those I love
They believe and have eternal life with Him
In that beautiful home that is far up above

Your home can be with our Blessed Savior
Confess your sins and ask His forgiveness
Read His words in the Holy Bible each day
His love will fill your soul with happiness

River Of Life

As we flow down the river of life
Many things will come into view
Some things are good some bad
Many things will be right for you

There will be days of good health
When you are young and care free
When older there are many pains
Maybe in your back or in a knee

You will see sadness as a friend dies
See joy at the birth new born child
Know days when it is blistering hot
See days when the weather is mild

You can get to know our Savior Jesus
Find a new life up in Heaven above
There to live a life that has no ending
Know the wonder of God’s undying love

Walk With Me While I Age

Will you walk with me while I age
Know the comfort of your presence
Ever feel the love held in my heart
Never to know your loves absence

Foot prints are etched in the sand
Ours together unyielding as if one
With joy in our hearts we will walk
Smiling, always having so much fun

Looking upward to that eternal city
Where with Jesus we will walk one day
On the pathway made of purest Gold
Smile as we see the angels out to play

My friend I want to walk there with you
We can walk with Jesus all day and night
Know we are entrusted in all His glory
Up there it shall ever be a glorious sight

Standing At The Portal

Soon I will be standing at the portal
Where my Savior Jesus will ask me in
It was Jesus who lost His life on Earth
To atone for all of God’s believers sin

Each person born into this Earthly life
Has a sin nature born in every one of us
Its known the penalty for our sin is to die
He died on the cross taking our sin, Jesus

Who so ever believes in Him shall not die
But will find eternal life with Jesus above
To spend those days in complete harmony
Up in Heaven a place that is filled with love

Don’t let the devil deceive and persuade us
That he has something that is better for you
His way is wrong and it will lead you to hell
Not a one of the things he tells you is true

copyright © 2015 By Acie

He Will Listen

Are you too busy to spend time with Jesus
Funny because He will spend time with you
He is never so busy that He won’t listen to us
You know He can solve all your problems too

If you take time to talk to Him He will listen
Every word that you utter He will always hear
Through Him you will find the way to Heaven
Where you will ever be in His gentle loving care

Jesus is your friend and don’t you ever forget it
He died on the cross to cleanse you of your sin
If you believe that He is the great Holy redeemer
He will open the portals of Heaven and let you in

So take some time this day to talk to friend Jesus
I know it will not be a waste of your precious time
He will show you the way to find life that is eternal
Up in His place that everyone will find to be sublime

In The Arms Of God

 
Today I am so tired and I am weary
I don’t have many more miles to go
Then I will reach that Heavenly City
Peace and contentment I shall know

Resting there in the arms of our God
No pain or suffering will I again feel
For He will protect and comfort me
This I believe and I know that it is real

Having this knowledge while on Earth
I can survive the constant evil of the day
Pray for those who do not believe in God
Hoping some day they see things His way

Jesus is waiting for you at Heaven’s gate
It’s an eternal life that awaits you there
Happiness will be with you through time
There you will ever be in God’s loving care

God's Most Perfect Place

 
If tomorrow is that day God calls
To take me to my Heavenly home
No sorrow should you feel for me
From God’s house I will never roam

 Heaven is God’s most perfect place
On Earth we see the work of His hand
One day we will see His Heavenly home
It is there He has made everything grand

We know not Heaven has in store for us
But our faith in God must always be strong
We know only through His son can we enter
Those Holy gates and get to where we belong

In the serenity of Heaven eternal life begins
An experience made possible through Jesus
If you believe in Him and tell Him with prayer
You also will be in His great Kingdom with us

My Walk With Jesus

I want to walk through life with Jesus
Knowing He will always be by my side
Having the comfort to know He is here
He tells me that in Heaven I shall reside

I want to ever follow His Holy teachings
Never once fail to give Him all the Glory
Listen to every word He has to tell me
One day He will give me all of the story

Jesus died taking my sin as if His own
It is written death is the penalty for sin
He did this because of the love He has
Believe in Him and see a new life begin

Through Jesus you find a Heavenly home
He is the only one who can let you come in
Jesus is best friend that you could ever find
With Him its a Heavenly victory you can win

With Jesus Forever

When I meet you over yonder
My heart will be filled with love
Knowing soon I’ll see my Jesus
To spend all eternity far above

In that land I’ll find happiness
Know all the joy filling my soul
See my God who is my maker
His faith will make me whole

Up there we find no inner circle
God loves us each just the same
Believe in Him and find a home
There is one that has your name

I want to be with Jesus forever
Not a minute should I ever leave
In my heart I will always love Him
Its in my Savior I ever will believe

Put Our Trust In Jesus

Though life on Earth is weary
We must put our trust in God
He shows us a way to Heaven
After we are placed in the sod

We will rise into His Kingdom
See this world of great beauty
Spend all eternity with Jesus
Just the way He wants it to be

If you have never met our Savior
There is something you must do
On bended knee you must pray
You’ll find things you never knew

Daily tell Him that you love Him
That to Him you will always be true
When He sees you entering Heaven
He will put His arms around you

Walk Along With Jesus

Happiness I will bring you this day
I feel like singing you a sweet song
It is of a place we know as Heaven
It will be our home before too long

God has made it for all His believers
A sanctuary where we never grow old
He has the divine powers to keep us
In that city with streets of pure Gold

So much comfort and beauty abounds
In this land He created for me and you
Only God could have made this place
It is yours too if to God you will be true

Some day together we shall be up there
Gather around His great Throne and pray
Meet the best friend we could ever know
When we walk along with Jesus that day

Ship Of Life

The winds of time shall never change me
To my Lord I will ever be faithful and free
Like a ship I shall shudder but never fail
My Master here beside me will ever be

Though the storm clouds shall be leaden
Angry lightning may show its Red streak
Our sails shall not be tattered nor be torn
Not even at the masts most highest peak

Swollen waves will roll toward the seaside
Echoing crashes that are both far and near
Spray from the waves that now hit the beach
We can feel and we also are able to hear

He will ever be the Master of my ship of life
He will guide me through a stormy day or night
If you have Jesus at the helm of your life’s ship
Don’t worry because He will ever steer it right

His Everlasting Care

I feel the long cold days of winter
As my life slowly comes to an end
Not too long ago days were warm
When the Sun had its rays to send

Soon the dark side of life will come
When on this Earth I will see no more
I will ascend into my Heavenly home
To find that God has left an open door

Wonders of Heaven will be around me
Many things I could never comprehend
Our marvelous Master can do anything
All the joys of Heaven to me He will send

No cold days or nights will be in Heaven
Perfection will be seen every day up there
God will watch over each of His believers
We shall always be in His everlasting care

Tell Him Of Your Love

As I stand beside Him in the morning
There is fog and dew is on the ground
Then the Sun will rise from the horizon
Another lovely day soon will be found

I have this feeling of great excitement
It is with my Lord we will spend the day
He tells me of His place we call Heaven
I shall have a home there I do ever pray

There to renew many old acquaintances
Those who were gone before we passed
See many angels that appear up yonder
Know we are in the arms of Jesus at last

Living a life on Earth that is true to Him
Shall get you into His mansion one day
Believe in His teachings and most of all
Tell Him of your love every time you pray

God Loves All His Chikdren

In the darkness of night I am never alone
He is always standing there near my side
He shields me from the evil of this world
He is the only one on which I have relied

As I face an uncertain world He is with me
Showing the right path I must tread today
When I am troubled He will ease my mind
He always answers when He hears me pray

He is the rock that I will always depend on
He will right a ship that is in a raging storm
Spectacular deeds we see Him perform daily
To Him would only be something that is norm

Perhaps you have never met the one I talk about
You will find that He is standing along by you too
Talk to Him for He will listen to every word said
God loves all His children and that includes you

Without You

When the last breath is gone from my body
A better home awaits me high up in the sky
There I shall meet the great Creator of us all
Jesus will answer questions and tell me why

Those things we could not know on the Earth
He will explain as we reach that Heavenly site
His love will reach out to each of His believers
But down on Earth we must get all things right

I will pray and ask Him to forgive me all my sin
Knowing through Him I must go to get my reward
Ever being faithful to Him down here on this Earth
On that Heavenly train, believers it will be all aboard

He loves you and He has this Kingdom awaiting you
Don’t try to pretend if with Him you are not true
You would then miss the greatest thing you could do
We can’t think of what Heaven would be without you

Trust In The Father

When the last breath of life
Has gone from this old body
Soon with my God I will be
It is an eternal life I will see

He has blessed me with life
This life on Earth complete
Now is time to be with God
It will be in Heaven we meet

Never to feel Earthly pains
God will take them all away
Knowing that He hears me
Each time I kneel and pray

I will be guided by my Jesus
Heed words He has to say
Keeping trust in the Father
In His arms I will be one day

Sing Him A Song

 
Let the whole world sing
Praises to His Holy name
From the mountain side
To the windswept range

Sing the song with feeling
Sing it with our voice loud
Know the love in our heart
Float on the highest cloud

Every line will be for Him
In our heart show Him love
Know one day we will meet
In God’s land high up above

Believe in our Holy Father
Sing to Him that lovely song
See that day you shall meet
You know it won’t be long

Our Friend

 
There is an old friend I am longing to see
I met Him when the Roses were in bloom
In a beautiful garden just beyond the river
In Heaven He has prepared for me a room

He loves me without any kind of hesitation
Where my Savior lives I want to be there too
To live with Him throughout our eternal life
Should be of a great concern to me and you

When this Earthly life has passed and is done
His kingdom awaits the spirits of you and me
There to be with our loved ones that we knew
Heaven shall be that grand place for all to be

I know you will love my friend as He loves you
You can see Him in the garden almost any day
There is a small stream flowing in the garden
It is there both you and our friend shall pray

My Sister Betty

My sister Betty went to be with God in 2000
 
In those rolling hills of Rushtown
An immaculate cemetery we see
Rows of grave markers are there
On one is my sister’s name Betty

Located down along Brush Creek
Where it is peaceful and so quiet
You can smell the trimmed grass
I am sure this morning it was cut

Betty left this world to be with God
When pain became too much to bear
No longer will she ever suffer any pain
She is now under God’s tender care

I know that one day I shall join Betty
Play like kids on those streets of Gold
There we can feel and know God’s love
It’s something we don’t need to be told

Will You Be Ready

When the last breath is gone from my body
A better home awaits me high up in the sky
There I shall meet the great Creator of us all
Jesus will answer questions and tell me why

Those things we could not know on the Earth
He will explain as we reach that Heavenly site
His love will reach out to each of His believers
But down on Earth we must get all things right

I will pray and ask Him to forgive all of my sin
It was my Savior who died on the cross for me
He took on all my sins as if they were His own
He has done the same for you setting you free

If it is your time to go there, will you be ready
Have you confessed sin and asked forgiveness
Remember God made Heaven as a sanctuary
For those that love and believe in Him, like us

My Great Friend

I have this great friend I want you to meet
His name is Jesus and he can save your soul
He suffered death as the penalty for our sins
Still God had everything under His control

He lives again now up in His Heavenly Home
Ascending there after life on Earth was done
Up there to be reunited with the Holy Father
It was Jesus who was God’s only begotten son

There will come a day I will be there with Him
To live through all of Eternity this friend and me
Where all evil doings will be left down on Earth
We know there in Heaven it will ever be sin free

When your day comes I hope you will be with me
To walk on those streets made of the purest Gold
Knowing we will never again be parted in that life
It’s true because in the Bible that’s the way it’s told

In God;s Kingdom

When my life on Earth is never more
God will call me to the Heavenly shore
There I shall live throughout all Eternity
He prepared that home for you and me

When our Savior takes you by the hand
He will lead you on to the Promised Land
There forever you shall be safe and free
It is up there God will protect you and me

Look to the future as the past is now gone
Each day we will find a Sun drenched dawn
Not one dark cloud will float across the sky
You won’t need an umbrella to keep you dry

In His Kingdom I will find happiness one day
It’s welcome home son I shall hear Him say
Never from God’s Kingdom will I ever roam
There forever and ever this will be my home

A Hero Died

 
As the silver casket was pulled from the Hearse
You could see a new flag covered the casket top
There the firing squad stood at a rigid attention
It seemed as if the whole world would then stop

A bride of six months stood crying over her loss
She was starting to show there would be a child
So many miles he had been sent to fight the war
He was killed in a firefight that became very wild

It was quiet as the bugler played the military taps
As the flag was folded it was handed to the wife
Tears of sorrow rolled down her anguished face
She would never again see him in this mortal life

What do you say when a loved one is lost in a war
You have compassion for the wife and his family
You pray that they will meet again up in Heaven
Where from the pain of death they are set free

copyright © 2015 By Acie
 

I Shall Never Sever

One blessed day I shall meet Him
There I will fall down on my knees
Kiss the feet of the only true God
It is my Savior I do want to please 

He has given me life on this Earth
One day that life will taken away
It will be an eternal life then given
I have a home with my Lord I pray

Trying to follow His ever command
I know there are times that I will fail
For this I will ask for His forgiveness
It’s a great trip to Heaven I shall sail

Our God is a glorious and a fair God
He wants us all to be with Him forever
To stray away from His Holy teachings
My relation with God I will never sever

Under His Holy Reign

What suffering and pain my Savior went through
To save a wretched soul such as I was at one time
Today I understand that He is my Holy Redeemer
He has helped me on every obstacle I must climb

With nail scarred hands He has suffered for me
Hanging on a tree they made into a heavy cross
Soldiers laughed and gambled for his garments
Some wept because they knew of the great loss

He did this to take our sins as if they were His own
He died because the penalty for sin is one must die
He showed love Jesus Christ has for all of His people
Some who saw Him die broke down and they did cry

He is the only hope us sinners have for an eternal life
It is through Him the pathway to His kingdom we gain
Knowing only happiness there with our Lord and Savior
Seeing only peace and tranquility under His Holy reign

On My Knees

 
As I met Him in the garden this morning
Dew was clinging to a snow white Rose
We walked and talked all about Heaven
Daily my love for Jesus grows and grows

If you haven’t met our Lord and Savior
Today would be a great day to see Him
If you fail to look for our Heavenly King
Your heavenly life will look awfully dim

Jesus Christ died to take on all our sins
On that heavy wooden cross He did die
Penalty for sin is death, for ours He died
To see Him in Heaven I am sure I will try

I will honor, worship, and believe in Him
Every day until I receive His heavenly call
Through the portals of Heaven I will walk
On my knees in the praise of Him I will fall

copyright © 2015 By Acie

An Old Friend

There is an old friend I want you to meet
You can’t see Him but He will talk to you
He is the great Creator and Father of all
His kingdom is far beyond our sky of Blue

I speak to Him in a prayer day and night
Tell Him of love I have deep in my heart
Having confessed the sins I did commit
Nothing can keep my Jesus and I apart 
 
When a day comes that He calls me away
Happiness will ever fill this believer’s soul
I praise the day that I met my redeemer
By knowing Him, He has made me whole

When I think of what He has done for me
I know I would be nothing without my Lord
He died to give me an eternal life with Him
In my heart love of Him will ever be stored

Your Passport To Heaven

There is a home that is like no other
No Earthly problems could be found
It is a land where you see rare beauty
When standing on God’s Holy ground

Of His land He has made this promise
That one day we can meet him up there
To live with a worry free life with Him
Living in His precious ever loving care

It’s not just some idle promise He gives
But there is truth in every word He prays
Believe in Him and confess all of your sins
You will live with Him all the eternal days

He wants us all to join Him up in Heaven
There will be room for those who believe
Ask for forgiveness for all of the past sins
Your passport to Heaven you can receive

copyright © 2015 By Acie
 

Promised Land

It’s that far away city
I want for my home
To live there forever
Never again to roam

Live with sweet Jesus
There walk by His side
On the streets of Gold
In a mansion I’ll reside

There is a way to get there
It is through Jesus I know
Love that I have for Him
Will ever continue to grow

If you don’t know Him
Fall on your knees and pray
Confess your sins to Him
Talk to Him every day

When life on Earth is over
He will take you by the hand
Show you what He created
As you walk the Promised Land

You'll Never Fool God

 
We all will be judged by our Heavenly father
He leaves our choices all up to us to decide
We can follow His teachings and be saved
Or ignore Him and become the devils bride

Heaven is a place of so much rare beauty
Hell is a place that is vulgar and is very hot
I know I want to spend eternity with Jesus
But to spend time in hell I certainly do not

There is a time coming when this life is over
All of your sins committed shall be forgiven
Ask God to forgive and you if believe in Him
There’s a home waiting for you up in Heaven

My friend I leave that choice entirely to you
Join me in being worthy of living with Jesus
Or live a life of corruption and with deceit
You’ll never fool God and be held blameless

I Am Never Alone

Every day I know He is walking beside me
There is no fear because I am never alone
He talks to me and His words will guide me
He is the greatest friend I have ever known

Yesterdays fears will no longer be with me
Safety He will provide me each and every day
He tells me of a wonderful place called Heaven
I believe what He tells me and I shall daily pray

He tells of a cross where He suffered and died
He did this so I could have eternal life with Him
If he had not taken our sins if they were His own
Our life after we died on Earth would be very dim

I thank Him for what He did and what He will do
I praise Him for being who He is and for His love
I know when He is ready for me to ascend to Him
My life on Earth is over and I will meet Him above

copyright © 2015 By Acie

With My Savior

My heart will fill up with joy
When I see my Savior there
He has died my death for me
I will be forever in His care

There is a place I want to be
Up on Heavens Golden shore
There to walk with my Savior
Feel that great joy once more

I will see those who left early
See the smile that’s on their face
Embrace old friends I see there
Being filled with Heavenly grace

In Heaven I will spend all eternity
Never to grow old or have any pain
Life will be with my Lord and Savior
I know that you want to do the same

copyright © 2015 By Acie

He Has A Home

When the past is all over
I won’t live here anymore
I’ll walk along with Jesus
On that Hallelujah shore

He gave me what I needed
When I was drowning in sin
Faith in what He has told me
Opens Heaven and lets me in

What joy I will find up there
See things I never seen before
Living in God’s perfect kingdom
With our Savior for evermore

In your heart do you love Him
As you know that He loves you
He has a home that is waiting
He wants you to be there too

God's Holy Reign

If you are all alone in this old world
There is someone you need to find
His name is written in the Holy Bible
Finding Him gives you peace of mind

His name is Jesus and to know Him
Get down on your knees and pray
Ask him forgiveness for your sins
He will take them from you today

It was for you He died on the cross
So those sins would be His to bear
He only asks that you believe in Him
It’s for His children that He does care

If you get to Heaven before I get there
Soon we will be back together once again
When I am called by our Heavenly Savior
To be forever up in our God’s Holy Reign

copyright © 2015 By Acie

Your Friend

 
One day the joy of meeting Jesus shall be mine
I will walk beside Him up on the Golden Strand
In that place we all know that is God’s Heaven
A place we find that is both glorious and grand

Only believers of our Holy Father will go there
Only through our Savior Jesus Christ can we go
Have you made your commitment to serve Him
His Holy Bible will tell what you need to know

It is sad to know some friends don’t know Him
For it was Jesus who died to take our sins away
It is said that for the wages of sin is to be death
He died for our sins on an old cross that sad day

Don’t be misled in the thoughts about your life
When this life on Earth will come to a final end
There is a home where your life will be eternal
If you have our Lord Jesus Christ as your friend

Along With Me

If tomorrow should be that day
When my Lord will call me away
As I enter in that Promised Land
I shall hear a mighty angel band

To find peace and comfort there
To forever be in my Savior’s care
No pain or suffering shall I find
God has eased my troubled mind

In His land happiness will reign
Up there we will never feel pain
God loves us each and everyone
From the devil we will always run

When He takes me by the hand
We will walk in that Promised Land
Oh what a day of rejoicing I will see
As sweet Jesus walks along with me

copyright © 2015 By Acie

He Will Show The Way

 
I know that soon I’ll go there
To God’s mansion up in the air
To spend a life that is eternal
In God’s precious loving care

That day will be oh so special
When I fall down on my knees
I’ll kiss the hem of His garment
For it is He I will want to please

He is the one who took my sins
He paid the death penalty for me
For the wages of sin I should die
But it was Jesus who set me free

My last wish before I go to Heaven
Is that I shall meet you there one day
It is through Jesus our Lord and Savior
If you believe He will show you the way

Armageddon

There will be a mighty war fought at Armageddon
Forces of good and evil will clash in final all out war
When the smoke has cleared and the battle is over
Earth and all the people will be gone forever more

All believers will be with God up in His kingdom
All evil will wind up in the fiery lake down in hell
Peace will be to those who chose God over satan
Jesus was their lifeline just ask and they will tell

No corruption will ever be found up in Heaven
Trust Jesus and cherish His great and Holy name
Know that He will protect you in His Holy Land
God does treat all of His loving children the same

Think things over as you read God’s Holy Bible
Absorb each word and know what they do say
You will not have to be in that Armageddon war
For God will take you to Heaven before that day

He Won't Let You Fall

I know I will never ever be lonely
Because I have Jesus on my mind
I can feel His love inside my heart
It is a feeling so precious and kind

One day I know I shall meet Him
Walk with Him on a Golden shore
What a joy of complete happiness
I will have with Him forevermore

If you have never met friend Jesus
There is no number for you to call
Just talk for he is always listening
Believe in Him He won’t let you fall

Know the safety of His loving arms
When your spirit is homeward bound
He has made an eternal home for you
When your belief in Him has been found

Goodbye March

Goodbye March I know we won’t miss you
Your icy cold winds have caused us misery
You’ve shrunk the figures in my checkbook
From the high cost of the gas and electricity

April we will welcome you with open arms
We know this month will not be like the last
We see the flowers start to pop into bloom
We are hoping the cold weather is now past

Soon the wonderful spring season will begin
Bringing life back to the lawns and to the hills
We will soon hear the whirring of the mowers
It is great that we will then see lower utility bills

Do we blame that rodent we call a groundhog
For sending all that miserable weather our way
No it is the seasons that God gives us each year
So now I guess we are all looking ahead to May

Suppertime In Heaven

When it is suppertime for us in Heaven
We will gather around God’s table there
We shall say Grace just before the meal 
We will hear our Lord lead us in a prayer

There will be angels singing at suppertime
Their harps will play in the sweet harmony
Joy shall rein for us throughout all Eternity
It is a glorious table God has for you and me

Suppertime will ever be a joyous occasion
Old friends shall be seated there by my side
We will eat the food only served in Heaven
It is forever in God’s Holy City I shall reside

When suppertime is over there will be singing
Praises to God will be in the songs that we sing
Joyful will be all our days up in God’s Kingdom
Exalting Jesus Christ who is our Heavenly King

Finding My Way

I will find my way to Jesus
Up on that faraway shore
Peace will be my comfort
Strife will be never more

He will heal all problems
No ills there will there be
I will rely upon my Savior
No heartaches will I see

My love for Him is ever
I know He loves me too
If you talk to Him today
You’ll find He loves you

His home shall be mine
Happiness forever I’ll see
Living eternally in Heaven
With all believers like me

A Final Home

Although storms rage God is with me
He will hold on to my trembling hand
My faith in Him will never ever waiver
I will see Him up in that Heavenly land

There to see so many things of wonder
Things never thought of here on Earth
God will give much peace and comfort
Showing what a Christian’s life is worth

To ever be with Him will be happiness
No trials in Heaven shall there ever be
One day I shall be there with my Savior
I pray that you up there I shall also see

This life on the Earth is just a short one
Life in Heaven will be for all of Eternity
God has made a home of great beauty
This will be a final home for you and me

My Old Friend

He is an old friend I met again this day
He is the kind of friend you would love
His name is Jesus He will save your soul
He has a home waiting for you up above

 Many days I have known and trusted Him
Still I cannot forget what I at one time was
A poor misguided sinner on his way to hell
This Earthly flesh had very many bad flaws

He has taught me the way to get to Heaven
It is through Him I must go to find my way
I will ever be honest and faithful to my Savior
Now I am ready for that great Judgment day

His home will be my home throughout Eternity
With so much beauty that we have never seen
White pillars of marble will be so clean and bright
With meadows so beautiful so lush and so Green

One Day

One day I will get to see that beautiful City
Where angels play and happiness abounds
There to be greeted by our dear friend Jesus
Standing on Heavens most sacred grounds

Gone will be all the ills we knew on Earth
It’s a perfect body up there we will know
There will be no stress or heartaches again
When with our Lord and Savior we do go

He will greet us at the portals of Heaven
Call our name just like an old friend would
Telling me that I have been a good servant
That I had done all the things that I should

He has made a home for me for all Eternity
This home He also has made for you my friend
Don’t be left out of this magnificent Holy place
When your life on this Earth comes to an end

Mother Singing

How again I would love to hear mother sing
Those old hymns that she could sing so well
She would turn her head up toward Heaven
Knowing her songs were heard you could tell

She would sing Amazing Grace oh so sweetly
Honoring God was her voice with every note
It seemed she knew the words to every song
Maybe every song that had ever been wrote

I know today she sings up There in the choir
Perhaps she does sing a solo once in a while
I know when God listens to her beautiful voice
On His face there will be this wonderful smile

One day I will be There to hear her sing again
With Golden harps we will hear the angels play
Perfect will be the day that God will give to us
Tears of happiness will fall like rain on that day

Springtime Is Coming

 As nasty winter comes to a close
Springtime is soon to be arriving
Yellow Jonquils will be in bloom
Springtime mantle will be thriving

This winter will soon be forgotten
As the weather starts to improve
Freshness of a warm spring breeze
Is something we surely will approve

I saw a Robin scratching for a worm
Soon she will start building the nest
Her mate will be there to help with it
It must be good enough to pass a test

God gives us these seasons for a reason
There is a time for things to come alive
There is also time for things to then die
There will be times for some to survive
