A Home in Heaven
A round me many are building homes of beauty and wealth
But what of a home in heaven
Where will you live after death:
Are you building a home in heaven
To live in when this life is o’er
Will you move to that beautiful city
And live with Christ ever more.
Long is the road that leads you
To that beautiful home up there
Is work on your home completed
Death may be lingering near.
Are you ready for his coming
Have you been true all a long
Have you finished your building in glory
Will you move to this heavenly home.

One ship sails east and another sails west ,
By the very same wind that blows;
It’s the set of a sail and not the gale ,
Which determines the way a ship goes .
Like the winds of the sea are the ways of fate ,
As we sail along through life ;
It’s the set of a soul that determines its goal ,
Not human stress and strife .
If the ship of your soul is out on life’s sea,
Tossed by the storms and distressed;
Set your sail for the harbor, whenever you be ,
And drop anchor in the Haven of Rest .

Take Time to be Kind
Take Time to be Kind
Kindness is a virtue
given by the Lord .
It pays dividends in happiness ,
and joy is its reward ,
For if you practice kindness
in all you say and do ,
The Lord will wrap His kindness
all around your heart and you ,
And wrapped with His kindness
you are sheltered and secure ,
And under His direction
Your way is safe and sure .

Kindness
So put away all malice and all guile and insincerity
and envy and all slander .Like newborn babes ,
long for the pure spiritual milk , that by it you may grow
up to salvation ; for you have tasted the kindness of the Lord .

Let Your Wish Become a Prayer
Let Your Wish Become a Prayer
Put your dearest wish in God’s hands today
And discuss it with Him as you faithfully pray ,
And you can be sure your wish will come true
If God feels that your wish will be good for you ,
For there’s no problem too big and no question too small ,
Just ask God in faith and He’ll answer them all ,
Not always at once ,so be patient and wait
For God never comes too soon or too late .
So trust in His wisdom and believe in His Word ,
For no prayer’s unanswered and no prayer’s unheard .

A Godly Man
A Godly Man
One righteous man ,
What is he worth ?
Far above all the
diamonds on Earth .
Blessed is the man
Whose God is the Lord
Who lives by his power
and feeds on His Word .
For this man shall prosper
His soul cannot die
His treasures , the riches
of earth cannot buy .

A Sunset Lesson
A Sunset Lesson
This evening I saw the sun set
Behind the mountain dim ;
It dropped from behind a beautiful cloud ,
All gold around its rim
And as the sun sank down to rest ,
Beneath its bed of gold ,
It filled my soul with rapture ,
Its beauty to behold .
O that my life ,at the close of day ,
May be as supremely bright ,
As I pass on from this present world
To the realms of endless light;
That the golden crown may await there.
As bright as this golden sky ,
And that I may dwell forever there ,
In that beautiful home on high .

Friends That Count
Friends That Count
The friends that love us always ,
In the good times and the bad ;
The friends that love us always
Are the friends that keep us glad .
The friends that cling in tempest
As they do in calms ,are those
That have made the paths of hardship
Seem the paths of song and rose .
The friends that love us always,
When we go their way or not ,
Are the friends our hearts remember
When the others are forgot .
The friends that stick the closet
When the trouble grows the worst;
The friends that love us always,
Just the way they did at first-
They are the crowning jewels
Of the coronets we weave
In the dream of tender moments
When the troubles start to leave ;
We revere their names for ever
And we see their faces clear –
The friends that love us always ,
Whether sun or shadow’s near .
Jan Bagwell
God give us best friends !
I wish for you and yours , that you have the love God in your heart , and many best friends. I thank God , he send me many .
