When I Exchange Life's Rugged Cross

When I Exchange Life's Rugged Cross

When I exchange Life's rugged cross
For Eternity's crown;
When my soul is rid of sorrow
My burdens all laid down,
I will trade these rags so wretched
For a gown of Heaven's white,
And when I take the Hand of Jesus
Everything will be all right.

No more rough roads will be traveled;
No more thorns will pierce my side.
I'll be granted total healing
When all Heaven's gates swing wide!
No more poverty, or sadness,
Will have my thoughts ensnared,
For I will ever rest with Jesus
In the mansion He's prepared.

No more tears will wet night's darkness,
No more loneliness or dread;
No more fearing of the future,
Nor of what may lie ahead,
No more guilty pain of faulting,
Nor pangs of yesterday,
For I'll have reached Life Immortal
In the True and Living Way!

Earthly toil will then be ended;
No more darts by Satan hurled.
Splendid glories will all glisten
There in God's most sacred World;
Where bright streets of gold will meet me,
And "Life's Precious Gem" awaits
Amid the glimmer of all ages
Inside Heaven's Pearly Gates!

When I exchange Life's rugged cross
For Eternity's crown;
When my soul is rid of sorrow
My burdens all laid down,
I will trade these rags so wretched
For a gown of Heaven's white,
And when I take the Hand of Jesus
Everything will be all right.

Heaven Is On My Mind

Someday I'll shed this mortal flesh
And fly away to my Heavenly home,
Leaving behind this old world,
And in sin no more will I roam.

The closer I get to that goal,
I think of Heaven more and more.
How will it be when I arrive
Upon that celestial, golden shore?

Yes, the gates are made of pearl,
And the streets are made of gold,
But also God's Word tells us
That the half has never been told.

Will my loved ones meet me there
When I arrive on that glad day,
Or will my Savior greet me first
When I arrive at my home to stay?

Will I have to wait in line
To see my dear Savior's face,
Or will I see Him just shortly
On my arrival in that place?

Am I too Heavenly minded
To be of any earthly good?
I must be about God's business
And work the way I should.

Still, I am so very anxious
To see my dear Savior's face.
I want to thank Him for His love
And for His matchless grace.

Everything Can Be Taken But One Thing

Everything can be taken from a man or a woman but one thing:
the last of human freedoms to choose one's attitude
in any given set of circumstances,
to choose one's own way.

He is My Shepherd

He is my Shepherd,
I am His lamb . . .
He accepts me
just as I am.

I will follow Him,
wherever He goes
for I am confident
the way He knows.

I'll never leave Him,
beside Him I will stay
for I know what it's like
to go astray.

I'll always look up to Him,
He'll always be at my side
I know I can count on Him
to lead and guide.

Jesus is my Shepherd,
His voice I do hear
as long as I go after Him
I'll have nothing to fear!

I'm Praying

Lord, tonight I’m feeling sad,
melancholy and depressed
and I asking You to hear
the solemnest of my request.

My prayer is for the ones I know,
and for those I have never met
but each of them are on my heart
and their pain I can’t forget.

They are stricken with disease,
illness of every kind . . . .
some take over their bodies
others destroy their very mind.

They are hurting in places,
I have never felt before
but I can feel each twinge
and their hurt I can’t ignore.

Lord, please, please, please,
shed on them Your healing light
bring them Your peace and comfort
hold them to You ever tight!



To all who are sick, ill, or full of
disease . . . my heart tonight is very
heavy and I am praying you. May our
heavenly Father be with you and
comfort you.

I'll Fly Away Someday

When I have finished my life's race,
I'm going to fly right through space,
Beyond the sun, the moon, and stars,
Right past Venus, Saturn, and Mars.

An astronaut suit, I won't need there.
My soul will be in an angel's care.
The angel will guide me to that place,
Heaven's land, full of glory and grace.

I will fly along at the utmost speed.
Not one piece of luggage will I need.
Maybe I'll be issued a robe of white
When I reach that land of purest light.

I am looking forward to that fast ride,
Landing me safely on the other side,
Where I will see my dear Savior's face.
I'll take a tour of that wonderful place.

I made my reservation many years ago.
I accepted the Savior while here below.
If you don't have your reservation yet,
Make one soon; please do not forget.
