Christmas Tears

I wonder if God cried when 
He sent us his only son,
His most precious gift to offer
All of us with love.

Did a tear trickled down 
His precious holy cheek
When he handed us his little boy
Did he then begin to weep?

I wonder if he cried when 
Jesus was rejected.
Did his lips turn downward?
Was his heart broken and dejected?

For he'd given us his all,
His ultimate sacrifice,
Sending us his only child,
Were God's tears a surprise?

Christmas is a happy time
For all of those we see
But for the Heavenly Father
Maybe this could not be!

How he must have wept
Over his little boy who'd die.
His life,vanished in the wind.
Christmas had to make him cry!

You Never Walk alone

Are you walking through a lonely road?
Tired of its twists and bends
Are you weighed down by a heavy load?
And searching for a true friend

Do you sometimes wonder and ask?
Why things happened as they did
Does it seem now a heavy task?
To be faithful in word and deed

There's no need to walk alone
When on Christ you can call
He'll stay with you through the horizons
And keep you strong and standing tall

Jesus Christ is a faithful friend
He cares and will your burdens share
A friend whose love knows no end
Call on Him today sincerely in prayer.

All the Angels Sang

Jesus came to be our savior,

All the angels sang and God rejoiced!
Came to bring us Heaven’s favor,
All the angels sang and God rejoiced!
Born to open Heaven’s treasure,
Key to God’s holiness for all time.
Jesus is the Father’s pleasure,
Sent to us with love and joy sublime.

Jesus came to live among us,
All the angels sang and God rejoiced!
Showed us faith both true and joyous,
All the angels sang and God rejoiced!
Taught and lived God’s good commandments,
Never once sinned at all in his life.
Jesus offers us repentance,
Gave himself for our eternal life.

Jesus came to make us holy,
All the angels sang and God rejoiced!
Came to save us, meek and lowly,
All the angels sang and God rejoiced!
Guides us to Christ-like behavior,
Puts his love for the world in our soul.
Jesus Christ our only savior,
Takes away our sin and makes us whole.

How Many?

How many makers
Have poured out their heart
To win back a world
That was theirs from the start

How many soldiers
Have entered the fray
Assured of their lives
Being taken that day

How many captains
Demand of their men
To lay down their lives
And then raise them again

How many a king
With servants to send
Would serve them himself
And then call them his friend

How many judges
Would justly condemn
Then lay down their lives 
A ransom for them

How many preachers
Who serve in their churches
Would give up position 
Or pomp in their perches

How many leaders 
Let themselves be led
And speak what they hear
So that others are fed

How many teachers
Illustrate by their walk
The things they instruct
Or the lessons they’ve taught

How many lords 
Have invited the grave
Loved life not to death
In order to save

How many saviors
Have counted the cost
Redeeming the world
Through death on a cross

Share now the tally
I count only one
The gift of our God 
In Jesus, His son

A Nation Divided

"Anti" this and "Anti" that;
This is where America's at.
"We the People" are divided;
A land that's no more united.

Some say we can have an effect,
If we are politic'ly correct.
Whatever we say or do depends
On whether or not it offends.

We've been given "Freedom of Speech";
It's meaning seems diff'rent for each.
When things opposed end in protest,
Most times, it brings about unrest.

Respect the Red, White, and the Blue;
Honoring those in power, too.
When peace prevails by doing right,
It's acceptable in God's sight.

May we seek God and humbly pray,
That we might live to see the day,
When "In God We Trust" is as before,
And we are united once more.
