Heavenly Goal
If you trust with your heart and you trust with your soul, If you trust when you’re young and trust when you’re old, If you trust in the storm and when sitting in the sun, You’ll find that your journey has only begun. Complete is the trust that won’t wiggle or sway, Clinging to God’s
Temple of God
Did you know, dear friend, your body’s not trash? It’s not just for giggles or fun in a flash. It’s more than a shell or a suit that you wear. It’s a temple. A treasure. A place God holds dear. The Spirit of God wants your heart for his home, So treat it with care,
Ticket to Heaven
There’s a place up above that is shining and bright, Where love fills the day and there’s no need for night. It’s peaceful. It’s joyful. It’s perfect and true. And God made a spot there for me and for you. But listen up closely. Please don’t turn away. There’s something important I just have to
Attitude of Gratitude
Come into his gates with a song and a grin, With praise on your lips and his joy deep within. Bring thanks in your hands. Bring praise in your pack. No grumbles or frowns—leave those all out back. Be glad for his gifts. Be loud in your praise, For the Lord has been good in

Now listen up closely. Come gather around. There’s a truth in the Word that is solid and sound: When you know Jesus and what he has done, The journey’s not over. It’s only begun. If you’ve learned the basics, the what and the why, Like trusting in God and not needing to try, You know
The King Who Became Poor
There once was a King of splendor like gold, With mor riches and glories than can ever be told. He lived in a palace with bright shining light, Where nothing went wrong and all things were right. On one special day that King revealed his plan To help everyone on Earth, each woman and man.
Heart Attack
I once had a heart that was stubborn and proud, It grumbled and mumbled and boasted out loud. Pouting and shouting, it threw quite a show— Then shattered to pieces on the wrong way to go. But God in his mercy said, “You need something new. That heart’s made of stone. It won’t carry you
No Need to Hide
When shadows grow long, and the night’s full of noise, When fear tries to shake all my peace and my poise, When my heart starts to race, and my knees feel like goo, I whisper, “Dear Lord, I put my trust in you.” I won’t run and hide or climb up a tree, For what
Mourning Glory
When sorrow comes knocking and joy takes its leave, When your heart feels too heavy to hope or believe, When teardrops keep falling like rain from the sky, And you don’t even have enough strength left to cry … Don’t think you’re forgotten. Don’t give up or frown. God sees all your weeping and won’t
Devil on the Run
I once was a mess, all tangled and torn, Like sneakers all muddy or socks that were worn. But then something happened, so wondrous and bright. I met up with Jesus and stepped into the light. The old me went walking, right out the back door, No more stuck in the habits I followed before.
Confident Prayer
We don’t have to guess. We don’t have to fear. Our prayers aren’t lost, for the Lord’s near to hear. We have this great confidence, solid and true: He listens to all that aligns with his view. If we ask for a boat, just to drift far away, He might gently whisper, “That’s not the
Help from Above
When life starts to wobble and spins you around, When nothing feels steady, not even the ground, When thoughts swirl like thunder and won’t let you sleep, And the highs you once had feel a little too cheap— Then pause for a moment, just breathe in the air, Don’t dash into chaos or drown in
