With a heart full of love
He carried the cross
And gave his life for all
Enduring such pain and agony
By the time it was finished he new
That even amidst all the suffering
He did what he knew he must do
He ask of his father
For that cup to pass
Perhaps their could be some other way
But the Heavenly Father
Knew it must be
A sacrifice had to be made
So completing the task
And carrying through
To please his father above
He said it is finished
And then bowed his head
And died with a
Heart Full Of Love

He is the rose of Sharon
The brightest morning star
No one else compares to him
No matter near or far
His fragrance is so sweet
He's like the morning dew
And he can be the sweetest rose
And bloom in your heart too
Oh come, taste and see
That that the Lord is good
He'll lighten all your heavy load
Just like he said he would
Let the rose of Sharon
Come live in you today
And let his Holy Spirit
Fill you every day

Our faithful loving God
Keeps an eye on you
Always watching over e
Everything you do
He knows it all, see's it all
And even hears your faintest cry
And he's present in the midnight hour
As you watch the time go bye
They say it's always darkest
Just before the dawn
And even in those dreadful hours
God can give a song
He is loving he is faithful
He will ever keep his word
He's closer than a brother
And much sharper than a sword
His patience never weaken
He never slumbers, never sleeps
And when you go to sleep at night
He your soul will keep
So if your reading this
My friend you should be grateful
That you right now can give him time
To prove to you He's Faithful

Often I've sat down
And put my hands there in place
And flowing form the tips of my fingers
Came the sweet sound of Amazing Grace
Then all of a sudden it changed over
And Sweet Hour Of Prayer filled the room
And then I mixed in a portion
Of the  precious hymn Coming Home.
In The Presence Of Jehovah's my favorite
When I play it I'm so mindful of
The passing of my precious father
Who's with Jesus in Heaven above
How Great Thou Art is a treasure
So many have sung through the years
And Love Lifted Me goes without saying
This one will leave you in tears..
So many hymns without number
That's encouraged and made me so strong
And now looking back I'm so thankful
That God let me play his song.....

The music of life sings within
If you listen close you may hear
Sounds that you've never  encountered
Sounds from afar and near
Music is just what you make it
its often the sound nature makes
Sometimes if you need encouraged
it will show you the road you should take
We all must listen to the music
For its a language we all understand
It spreads all over the world
To unite us and strengthen our land

The journey has been long
And the trials seem to outdo the good
But I know that in this life
We weren't promised an easy road
and the unexpected struggles aren't ever understood
But when we are at our lowest point
That's when God will make his move
To prove that he loves us much more than we can know
He sees us through the good times,
And he sees us through our bad
Never will he leave us all alone....
So never give up trying...
Look further down the road
And you might just see him in the distance
Waiting to help you with your load
His love is never ending
His patience shall endure
And when all else fails around you
He is steadfast, He is sure
So do not turn from him,
But run to his open arms
His intentions are to love you always
And shelter you from harm
There's a place reserved for you
In his dwelling place
And I so long for you to be there
When you leave this earthly race
Yes Heaven is awaiting somewhere out there that's for sure
And giving all your heart to Jesus...
Will get you in the door.

Sometimes it's not easy to take the time to pray
We run off with our scheduling, out into the day
We can't take the time, we're running late
The bills are overdue
So prayer gets set aside, with more important things to do
So its off to work or off to school, perhaps a manicure
And grocery shopping's on the list, that's a must for sure
But on the way to Walmart an un-expected flash
And somewhere out of no-where, you end up in a crash...
Life is fading from you, like sand from an hour glass
And now your seeing visions, of your busy past
At first you see the bright lights and someone calls your name
your not sure at this point...hoping that your sane
Then all appears as dark...and you feel a sense of loss
And somewhere now in all of this your mind takes you to a cross
Where on a hill way back in time, the Savior died for you
And then a still small voice is heard...seek me and I'll bring you through
All at once your eyes are opened....you see the light of day
And at that moment, their are tears...It's not Too Late To Pray
